<span>In two similar triangles, like the one we see above, the ratio of their areas is the square of the ratio of their sides.

Based on the graph, we see that BD is 3 times larger than BA. This means that the area of DBE will be 3</span>² times larger, or 9 times larger, than the area of ABC.

Area of ABC = 3 square units
Area of DBE = 3 * 9 = 27 square units
Answer is A.

In the diagram below what is the approximate length of the minor arc XY

sveta [45]

C = 2pi r= 2 (3.14) (27) = 169.56

Let XY = x

169.56 / 360 = x / 60

360x = 169.56 * 60

360x = 10173.60

x = 28.26

x = 28.3

Answer is C. 28.3 cm

What is the value of p?

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

p =43

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the angle in a triangle

The angle next to 133, angle a, is 180-133 = 47 because the angles form a straight line

The angle next to 90, angle b, is 180-90 = 90, because the angles form a straight line

We have a triangle. The angles in a triangle equal 180 degrees

a+b+ p =180

47+90+p = 180

137 + p = 180

p = 180-137

p =43

seropon [69]

Answer:

the answer is: $x=13$

Step-by-step explanation:

We get the answer using Pitagoras.

$5^2+12^2=x^2$

so

$x=\sqrt{5^2+12^2}=\sqrt{25+144}=\sqrt{169}=13$
