Answer:

8"

Step-by-step explanation:

Lᵃ/Wᵃ = Lᵇ/Wᵇ

20"/4" = 40"/Wᵇ

Wᵇ = (4"×40")/20"

Wᵇ = 160" ÷ 20"

Wᵇ = 8"

Answer:

8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w be the width of rectangle B.

Since, both rectangles are similar.

Therefore, corresponding lengths and widths of rectangles A and B will be in proportion.

\therefore \frac{20}{40}  =  \frac{4}{w}  \\  \\  \frac{1}{2}  =  \frac{4}{w}  \\  \\ w = 2 \times 4 \\  \\ w = 8 \: inches

The figure shows two right trapezoids. Trapezoid A B C D has right angles at B and C. Angle B is adjacent to the shorter paralle
dlinn [17]

Answer:  

In the trapezoids ABCD and RSPQ,

Angles A, B, C and D are corresponding to the angles R, S, P and Q respectively,

Also, the sides AB, BC, CD and DA are corresponding to the sides RS, SP, PQ and QR respectively.

Since, when two figures are congruent to each other then their corresponding sides and angles are also congruent.

Here,  trapezoids ABCD and RSPQ are congruent.

Therefore, AB≅RS,  AB≅RS,  AB≅RS,  AB≅RS

And, ∠A ≅ ∠R,   ∠B ≅∠S,  ∠C≅∠P, ∠D≅∠Q

It is B because have you do 160+77-x=180 you would add the like terms 160+77=237 and then subtract 180 from 237 and you get 57 for x and when you plug that in  160+77-57   77-57=20 and 20 plus 160 is 180 so The answer is B)No of these
