Answer:
EF = 20 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to find the length of EF
To do this, we use the principle of similar triangles
The similar triangles we are considering here will be ;
FEA and FBD
when two triangles are similar, the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal
Let us calculate DC first
we can use Pythagoras’ theorem here and it is that the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the square of the two other sides
Using the triangle EDC
15^2 = 12^2 + DC^2
DC^2 = 225-144
DC^2 = 81
DC = 9
So the entire length of BD is 9 + 12 = 21 cm
Thus, we have it that;
Let EF be x
so DF = 15 + x
Hence;
BD/DF = AE/EF
21/15+x = 12/x
21x = 12(15 + x)
21x = 180 + 12x
21x-12x = 180
9x = 180
x = 180/9
x = 20 cm
EF = 20 cm
6+6=12 + 6= 18
6x3=18
(I feel like u know the answer, just asking to give away free points. Either way the answer is 18 and thank you.)
Answer:
qw567
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
=8 1/4 as a fraction or 8.25 in decimal form.
Step-by-step explanation:
The indicated operation is the product of the two fractions. Multiplication opens the brackets.
(-11/2)×(-3/2)
=(-11×-3)/(2×2)
=33/4
The negative signs before each term cancel out in multiplication and division.
=33/4 =8 1/4= 8.25
Choose 1 answer among the improper fraction, Mixed fraction or the decimal.
