Answer 1

Answer:

E. 2 1/2

E. 8.5 cm

C. 6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

4............................

Scale factor = AE/AC = (4+6)/4 = 10/4 = 2.5

Correct option is E. 2 1/2

5............................

DE = ?

• DE = √AD² - AE² = √15² - 10² = √125 = 5√3 ≈ 8.66

• For measure of AD see next question (6)

Close option is E. 8.5 cm

6............................

AB = ?

• AD/AB = 2.5 the scale factor as per question 4
• (AB + 9)/AB = 2.5
• 2.5*AB = AB + 9
• 1.5*AB = 9
• AB = 9/1.5
• AB = 6 cm

Correct option C. 6 cm
