<span>In this problem, to find the answer we have to setup a series of ratios that relate the scale to real life distance. We know that 1cm = 2.50km, so that ratio would be 1cm/2.5km. For two towns that are 4.75cm apart on the map, we set a ration of 4.75cm/x km, where x is the actual distance. Now we set the ratios equal to each other and solve for x. 1/2.5=4.75/x where x = 4.75*2.5/1 = 11.875 and rounding up we get 11.88 km. The two towns are actually 11.88 km apart from each other.</span>

Can someone help me out with this?
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

  • x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x has the same value as RT since they are equal sides of the isosceles triangle.

RT is also the hypotenuse of ΔRST - 30°×60°×90° right triangle.

Acoording to the property of such triangles, the ratio of sides is:

  • a : b : c = 1 : √3 : 2

We have:

  • b = 2√3 and c = RT

Use the ratio to find the lenght of RT

  • 2√3 : RT = √3 : 2
  • RT = 2*2√3/√3
  • RT = 4

So the value of x is 4 units
