<h3>Answer:  Choice D)  7.5 cm</h3>

==========================================================

Explanation:

We are told that quadrilateral ABCD is similar to quadrilateral EFGH.

The order of the four letter sequence is important.

  • For ABCD, we have AB as the first pair of letters.
  • For EFGH, we have EF as the first pair of letters.

Therefore, AB and EF are corresponding sides.

So AB = 10 and EF = x pair up together. We can form the ratio AB/EF which becomes 10/x.

The diagram shows that AD = 8. Notice that A and D are the first and last letters of ABCD. The first and last letters of EFGH are E and H. We can see that AD and EH correspond to one another because of this.

AD = 8 and EH = 6 forming the ratio AD/EH = 8/6

Because the quadrilaterals are similar, the corresponding ratios must be the same. Therefore, AB/EF is the same as AD/EH.

-----------------------

Let's set up a proportion to solve for x

AB/EF = AD/EH

10/x = 8/6

10*6 = x*8

60 = 8x

8x = 60

x = 60/8

x = 7.5  Answer is choice D

Why do we use congruence?
NARA [144]

For people to comprehend the structure of their world, congruence is a crucial mathematical concept. Young children's daily interactions with congruence enable them to build innate perceptions of this geometric relationship.

Congruent:

If the size and shape of two triangles are same, they are said to be congruent. Three equal sides and identical angles are shared by two congruent triangles with regard to one another. Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent is referred to by the theorem CPCTC. According to the CPCTC theorem, whenever two triangles are congruent, then each of their corresponding parts are also congruent. In other words, if two or more triangles are congruent, then their corresponding sides and angles are also congruent or equivalent in size.

total amount = P (1 + i)t What is the total amount that First Consumer Bank will receive after lending Jane $7,000 for three yea
ICE Princess25 [194]
P= principal (initial deposit) ($7000)
i= interest (5%)
t= # of years (3)

Total amount = P (1 + i)^t
T= $7000(1 + 5%)^3
T= 7000(1.05)^3
multiply exponents before regular multiplication
T= 7000(1.157625)
Total= $8,103.38 after 3 years

Hope this helps! :)
