The answer:
according to the image, the main theorem concerning right triangle similarity is as follow:
the altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle divides the triangle into two triangles that are similar to the original triangle and each other,
in our case, KL is the altitude, and by applying theorem, we get three triangles that are similar:
therefore:
<span>△JKL ~ △JKM
</span><span>△JKM ~ △JKM
</span><span>△JMK ~ △KML</span>
Answer:
It will take 39.27 gallons to repaint the barn.
Step-by-step explanation:
The image of the setup is obtained from online and attached to this solution.
The rectangular prism is a cuboid of
Length = 84 ft
Breadth = 38 ft
Height = 20 ft
And the triangular prism on top of the rectangular prism has a vertical height of 12 ft.
The surface area of the composite structure that is available for painting include the 4 sides of the top triangular prism and the four sides of rectangular prism
Two of the faces of the triangular prism are triangles with base of 38 ft and height of 12 ft.
The other two faces of the triangular prism are rectangles with length 84 ft and breadth of the hypoteneuse of the right angled triangle on top.
B² = 12² + 19²
B = 22.47 ft
Total Surface area of the faces of the rectangular prism is then
2×(84×20) + 2×(38×20) = 4880 ft²
Total surface area of the faces of the triangular prism is then
2×(0.5×12×38) + 2×(84×22.47) = 4,230.96 ft²
Total surface area = 4880 + 4230.96 = 9110.96 ft²
1 gallon of paint = 232 ft²
x gallons of paint = 9110.96 ft²
x = (1×9110.96/232) = 39.27 gallons.
Hope this Helps!!!
The answer to this would be x-(x+14)
Here's an explanation:
Let x represent the unknown number. The problem says that x has been decreased by the sum of x and 14. So, to put this in a form of an equation, it would be x-(x+14), since you have to do the addition first before you can subtract the two number since you don't know what x is. This equation is equal to -14 no matter what x is.
Answer:
8.06 ft or
ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Rebecca bought a square table and squares have equal sides, you can take the square root of the area of the table, which gives you
ft per side. This can be approximated to 8.06 ft.
