Answer:
x = 15
x = 15
The answers should be the same because the triangles are similar. The ratio of the sides are in the same proportion.
Step-by-step explanation:
a. x 12
------- = --------------
20 16
using cross products
x*16 = 20 * 12
16x = 240
divide by 16 on each side
16x/16 = 240/16
x = 15
b x 6
------- = --------------
20 8
using cross products
x * 8 = 6 * 20
8x = 120
divide each side by 8
8x/8 = 120/8
x = 15
c. The answers should be the same because the triangles are similar. The ratio of the sides are in the same proportion.
we know angle RLP= 100⁰
also
angle RLP+ angle RLB=180⁰(Linear pair)
=>100⁰+angleRLB= 180⁰
=> angle RLB=80⁰
since BR and LR are equal, angle RBL and angle RLB are equal
therefore angle RBL is also equal to 80⁰
using angle sum property of triangles we know that the sum of all angles in a triangle is equal to 180⁰
=>angle BRL+angle RBL+angle RLB= 180⁰
=> angle BRL+80⁰+80⁰=180⁰
=>angle BRL = 180⁰-160⁰
=>angle BRL= 20⁰
I'm sorry it took me some time I'm a slow typer
Joe ate 1/2 because when you multiply them, you get 2/4. when you simplify it, you get 1/2
Answer:
£134.2 more
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 1342 by 100
Then you get 13.42
Times that by 10 and £134.2 is 10%
