HELP ASAP!! Can you explain how to decompose a rectangle into congruent triangles? How does the area of the decomposed pieces re

late to the area of the rectangle
Mathematics

Answer: You would divide the rectangle into half, to form two congruent triangles. When you multiply the area of 1 of the triangles, it gives you the area of both triangles, and so the area of the triangle as a whole

Answer:

About 5.5, but it is technically closer to 5.6 so I am not entirely sure

Step-by-step explanation:

Since EB and DC are parallel, triangles ABE and ACD are similar by AA. Therefore:

\dfrac{x}{10}=\dfrac{10}{18} \\\\\\x=10\cdot \dfrac{10}{18}\approx 5.5

Hope this helps!

Please help, I need to get this done!<br>I need to get number 16, 17, and 18 done please help!!!!​
Tresset [83]

Answer:

16) 62.8 m²

17) 19.4 m²

18) 103.5 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find area of a circle is: \pi r^{2}. To find radius, find the half of the diameter.

To solve number 16, first find the area of the unshaded circle using the formula: \pi 4^{2}. This is also 3.14*16. Multiply to get 50.24 m². Now find the area of the larger circle using the formula: \pi 6^{2}. This is also 3.14*36. Multiply to get 113.04 m². Now subtract 113.04 - 50.24 to get the shaded area or 62.8 m².

To solve number 17, first find the area of the square using the formula: side x side. In this case multiply: 5.25 x 5.25 to get 27.5625. Round to the nearest tenth to get 27.6 m². Now find the area of the circle using the formula: \pi 2.625^{2}. This is also 3.14*2.625. Multiply to get 8.2425. Round to the nearest tenth to get 8.2. Subtract 27.6 - 8.2 to get 19.4 m².

To solve number 18, find the area of one unshaded circle using the formula: \pi 1.75^{2}. This is also 3.14*3.0625. Multiply to get 9.61625. Round to the nearest tenth to get 9.6 m². Add 9.6 + 9.6 to find the area of both unshaded circles. You get 19.2 m². Now find the area of the shaded circle using the formula: \pi 6.25^{2}. This is also 3.14*39.0625. Multiply to get 122.65625. Round to the nearest tenth: 122.7. Subtract 122.7 - 19.2 to get 103.5 m².

Hope it helps and is correct!

A pet shop manager wants the same number of birds in each cage he wants to use as few cages as possible but he can only have one
anastassius [24]

Since there are more parakeets than canaries, it is not possible to have only 1 of each bird in each cage <u>and</u> have the same number of birds in each cage.

He could use 42 cages, putting a canary in with the parakeet in 18 of them. Then he would have 18 cages with 2 birds each, and 24 cages with 1 bird each.

The only way to have the same number of birds (1) in all cages is to have 60 cages, 42 of which have 1 parakeet, and 18 of which have 1 canary.

_____

If more than 1 of each kind of bird can be put in the cage, the collection of birds could be put into 6 cages, each of which would be home to 7 parakeets and 3 canaries.

If the xy-plane, the graph of y=x^2 and the circle with center (0,1) and radious 3 have how many points of intersection?
PSYCHO15rus [73]
<span>The answer to this question is c, two. The top arc of the circle intersects the y=x^2 as each 'limb' extends into infinity. The part of the circle below the x-axis does not intersect the circle. The y=x^2 curve does not dip below the x-axis, but does extend into infinity on both the negative x-axis and positive x-axis.</span>
