You divide the fractions to get percents
Answer:
75°
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 180° in a triangle, so using the ratios and the 180° setup an equation. Solve for x.
5x + 9x + 10x = 180
24x = 180
24x/24 = 180/24
x = 7.5
To find the largest angle measure, use 10x since 10 is bigger than 5 and 9.
10x
10(7.5)
75°
Mary is incorrect. Perimeter is not proportional to area. An example which you can use is garden A is an 8 by 1 rectangle. The perimeter is 18 while the area is 8. Graden B is a 4 by 4 square. The perimeter is 16 (less than garden A) while the area is 16 (two times more than garden B).
