The answer is 1:11. After it being simplified from 6:66. Hope this helps.
Again, nice problem. These are not super easy. You need to imagine the triangles in the figure and relate sides.
For instance: ADC, its hypotenuse is 15
For ABC, it is 20,
so 20/15 is the ratio between both triangles. Now let's choose the side with 'x'
x is one side of ADC, the corresponding side in ABC is 15 (the second longest sides). You need to rotate the triangles, etc ... That's the tricky part :)
So:
20/15 =15/x ----> x = 15*15/20 = 225/20 = 45/4
Which is C
Not sure whether it's too late to help you though!!!!
Also notice that it's kind of a product rule:
x * 20 = 15 * 15
I am sure the book explains a short way of getting to this equation, like sides opposite, blah blah, but what i told you is the reason. You asked for understanding it! Best luck!
U write it as 1/6+1/6+1/6+1/6=4/6
Answer:
a=6
b=10.39
Step-by-step explanation:
a=sin 30x12 or a=cos60x12
a=6
b=cos 30x12 or b=sin60x12
b=10.39
Answer:
13 yds * 32 yds
Step-by-step explanation:
A=area, l=length, w=width
A=w*l
l=6+2w
A=w*(6+2w)
A=6w+2w^2
416=6w+2w^2
416/2=(6w+2w^2)/2
208=3w+w^2
208-208=3w+w^2-208
w^2+3w-208=0
w^2+16w-13w-208=0
w(w+16)-13(w+16)=0
(w-13)(w+16)=0 ==> w+16=0 ==> w=-16, w can't be negative.
w-13=0
<u>w=13</u>
l=6+2w
l=6+2(13)
l=6+26
<u>l=32</u>
Dimensions: 13 * 32
