Therefore, 5 bags of brand x will contain 15 pounds of nutrient a and 10 pounds of nutrient b

Component of each bag of brand y:

4 pounds of nutrient a and 1 pound of nutrient b

In this truss bridge, AAOB ABDC. AO=5 meters, BD=10 meters, AB=5 meters. What is the length of BC? A. 5 m B. 8 m C. 10 m D. 15 m
Olenka [21]

Consider \Delta AOB\cong \Delta BDC.

Given:

\Delta AOB\cong \Delta BDC, AO=5\ m,BD=10\ m, AB=5\ m.

To find:

The length of BC.

Solution:

We have,

\Delta AOB\cong \Delta BDC

We know that the corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (CPCTC).

AB=BC                   (CPCTC)

5\ m=BC

The length of BC is 5 m. Therefore, the correct option is A.
