Answer:
a. FG ≈ 6.983 cm
b. FH = 13.16 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>a)</h3>
Corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional. This means ...
FG/GH = CD/DE
FG = GH(CD/DE) = (9.4 cm)(2.6/3.5) . . . . . . multiply by GH; fill in values
FG ≈ 6.983 cm
__
<h3>b)</h3>
And ...
FH/GH = CE/DE
FH = GH(CE/DE) = (9.4 cm)(4.9/3.5)
FH = 13.16 cm
__
<em>Additional comment</em>
Corresponding vertices are listed in the same order in the similarity statements. This means, for example, segment FG (which names the first two vertices in the name of ΔFGH) will correspond to segment CD (which names the first two vertices of ΔCDE).
Answer: 316.52
Step-by-step explanation:
77.2*4.1 = 316.52
If you have problems with multiplying decimals:
Multiply the numbers just as if they were whole numbers.
1.Line up the numbers on the right - do not align the decimal points.
2.Starting on the right, multiply each digit in the top number by each digit in the bottom number, just as with whole numbers.
3.Add the products.
3,800
because the rectangle area is 40x70 plus the triangle area is 40x50 divided by 2
Their combined chance of winning is 20%.
