Answer:
18 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
You can start with the equivalence ...
1/2 in = 3 miles
and multiply it by 6.
6·(1/2 in) = 6·(3 miles)
3 in = 18 miles
Towns that are 3 inches apart on the map are 18 miles apart on the ground.
___
Why 6? because that is the number 1/2 needs to be multiplied by to get 3. Said another way, ...
3/(1/2) = 3·2 = 6
The diagram provided is an isosceles triangle. An isosceles triangle has two sides having equal measure and two base angles also having equal measure.
From the marks on the triangle given, line ZX and line ZY are equal in length. This also means angle X and angle Y are equal in measure.
Therefore, we would have;

This means angle X and angle Y both equal 27 degrees each.
Note that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180. Therefore, in triangle ZXY,
Answer:
h = 
Step-by-step explanation:
bh-u+g=w original
bh= w+u-g move everything that does not have an h to other side
h =
