Answer:

37.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the shorter piece be x and the longer piece be 5x.

Short piece + Long piece = 285 inches

x + 5x = 225

6x = 225

x = 225 ÷ 6

x = 37.5

Which of the following facts, if true, would allow you to prove that lines l and m are parallel? NEED HELP
Damm [24]

Two parallel lines A and B are crossed by another line as shown in the attached figure. Angle 2 and 3 are equal, because they are opposite angles, while angle 3 and 7 are also equal, because they are corresponding angles, thus it is deduced that

angle 2 = angle 3

angle 3 = angle 7

So angle 2 = angle 7

<span>Hence fourth option is right.</span>
