Answer: 1. When you estimate, it is not an exact measurement. 3ft 8 in gets rounded to 4ft and 12 ft 3 in rounds to 12ft. now find the perimeter. P=2l+2w P= 2*12 +2*4 P=32feet

2. 3ft 8in = 3 8/12 or reduced to 3 2/3  12ft 3in = 12 3/12 or reduced to 12 1/4   The fractional part is referring to a fraction of a foot.

3. The perimeter of the room is P=2l+2w or P=2(12 1/4) + 2(3 2/3) p=24 1/2 + 7 1/3  P= 31 5/6 feet

4. The estimate and the actual are very close. They are 1/6 of a foot apart.

5a. Total baseboard 31 5/6ft - 2 1/4 ft = 29 7/12 feet needed.

5b. Take the total and divide it by 8ft  = 29 7/12 divided by 8= 3.7  You are not buying a fraction of a board so you would need 4 boards.

They're all d).

1) 28>24=10+14

2) Either 96/8=? or 8*?=96 describe the problem, ? being the number of chairs (the blank square in the answers). Of the two only the first appears in the options.

3) This question is ambiguous: if someone went both days, we could say the total number of people who went to the Saturday and Sunday games would be less than 3271+5844=9115. But who wrote the question likely wanted you to just do the sum between the two numbers, so of all options d is likely what they want you to choose.

How can you use similar triangles to find a missing measurement?
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

By comparison of the sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

If triangles are similar, that means their angles are equal and sides are proportional.

If you already have a proportion of two corresponding sides between triangles, then use that proportion and set it equal to a side you already know the measurement to. Hopefully that side is corresponding to your missing measurement, and you can then solve it.
