Answer:
53.33
Step-by-step explanation:
finding area of ΔPAM
using similar triangles
16 = 12x; x =
ΔPAM = 4/3 * 4 * 1/2 = 16/6 = 8/3
ΔPAL = 4 * 12 * 1/2 = 24
24 + 8/3 = 80/3 (using fraction form for now, will round later)
since there are two ΔPLM (ΔLMU has same area since they are congruent)
we can multiply 80/3 by 2
80/3 * 2 = 160/3 = 53.33

Given
R is the interior of ∠ TUV.
m∠ RUV=30degrees, m∠ TUV=3x+16, and m∠ TUR=x+10.
Find the value of x and the m ∠TUV.
To proof
As given in the question
m ∠TUV=3x+16, and m ∠TUR=x+10
thus
m∠ RUV = m∠ TUV - m∠ TUR
= 3x + 16 - x -10
= 2x + 6
As given
m ∠RUV=30°
compare both the values
we get
30 = 2x + 6
24 = 2x
12 = x
put this value in the m ∠TUV= 3x+16
m ∠TUV= 12× 3 +16
= 52°
Hence proved
Use the distance formula
well, Marcus and Ben are both 5 feet tall and a little bit more, Marcus is 19/24 more and Ben is 9/16 more, so the 5's in the fraction are the same, so which one is larger, 19/24 or 9/16?
we can simply put both fractions with the same denominator, by <u>multiplying one by the other's denominator</u>, so let's proceed,
