Answer:
Bianca's height = 42 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the Bianca height.
Given:
Meredith height = 60 inches
We need to find the Bianca height.
Solution:
From the given statement the Meredith's height is of Bianca's height plus 32 inches, so the equation is.
Meredith's height =
Substitute Meredith's height in above equation.
Now we solve the above equation for x.
By cross multiplication.
28 divided by 2.
Therefore, the height of the Bianca is 42 inches.
Answer:
because they are opposite sides of a parallelogram.
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, let us have a look at the definition of a parallelogram.
<em>A parallelogram is a closed 4 sided figure (i.e. a quadrilateral) made up with two pairs of straight lines such that the two pairs are parallel and equal to each other.</em>
<em></em>
For example, let us consider a quadrilateral ABCD as attached in the diagram in answer area.
The two pair of lines are:
AB, DC and BC, AD
For ABCD to be a parallelogram, the lines
AB and DC must be parallel to each other and AB = DC
AND
BC and AD must be parallel to each other and BC = DA
------------------------------
In the given question, we are given that the quadrilateral MNOP is a parallelogram.
The two pairs opposite lines are OP, NM and PM, ON.
As per the definition of a parallelogram,
OP and NM must be <em>parallel and equal </em>to each other.
AND
PM and ON must be <em>parallel and equal </em>to each other.
.
Hence proved.
