Gabrielle wants to use felt

Mathematics

Answer:

3 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Figure

To find: Number of 8.5 in. ×  11 in. pieces used to cover the floors  of a room and a hallway in  her dollhouse

Solution:

In the given figure, AC = 22 in.

AB + BC = 22 in.

AB + EF = 22 (As BC = EF being opposite sides of rectangle)

AB + 10 = 22

AB = 22 - 10 = 12 in.

Area of rectangle ABGH = AB × AH = 12 × 5 = 60 square inches

(area of rectangle = length × breadth )

CE = CD + DE = AH + GF (As CD = AH and DE = GF)

CE = 5 + 15 = 20 inches

Area of rectangle BCEF = BC × CE = 10 × 20 = 200 square inches

(BC = EF = 10 in.)

Total area of the figure = Area of rectangle ABGH + Area of rectangle BCEF = 60 + 200 = 260 square inches

Area of pieces of felt = 8.5 × 11

So,

Number of pieces required = Total area of the figure / Area of pieces of felt  = \frac{260}{8.5(11)} =2.78 \approx 3 pieces

I NEED HELP ASAP Find the distance between the points (2, 3) and (2, 8).
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Use the distance formula: x=sqrt((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)

Plug in ordered pairs for the variables:

x=sqrt((2-2)^2+(8-3)^2)

x=sqrt(0+25)

x=sqrt(25)

x=5 or -5

Since distance is ALWAYS positive, it's 5 units

Hope this helped!

What is the sum of interior angles for a nonagon
alexira [117]
Remember your prefixes! They help a lot, because there is a formula for this particular problem. Nonagon refers to a shape with 9 sides. 

The number of triangles a polygon has is represented by the formula: 
(n-2)

Where "n" is the number of sides. If you ever forget what you subtract "n" by think of a triangle. It has 3 sides, so it is only logical that you should only have 1 triangle (subtract by 2). So, what is the sum of the interior angles of a triangle, 180°. So the formula looks like this: 

Sum of Interior Angles = 180°(n-2)
180°(9-2)
180°(7) = 1260° is the sum of interior angles for a nonagon!

Order from least to greatest.<br> 1/2, 1/8, 1/16, -0.6
babunello [35]

Answer:

->   -0.6, 1/16, 1/8, 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 0.6 is negative, that would be the most smallest value. All of the fractions have a numerator of one, so the bigger the denominator, the smaller the value of the fraction is.
