Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
We see that MP and PL are congruent, as are MQ and QN. Using scale factors, we can conclude that the scale factor from MP to ML is 1:2.
Based on SAS similarity, MPQ and MLN are similar, so their sides are proportional.
Multiply both sides by 3
so it should look like this:
3x+7=267
now subtract 7 from each side so now it should look like this
3x=260
Now divide each side by 3
and you will get
x=260/3
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
The larger triangle is 1.5 times larger than the smaller one. So the smaller one has to have a height of 3/1.5=2.
You need to find the circumference of the whole circular pool and then subtract from it the arc length that is 1/4 of the circumference. The circumference formula is C = (3.14)(d), which in our case is 3.14(40) which is 125.6. Now we need the arc length we need to take away. 1/4 of a circle corresponds to a 90 degree angle, so in the formula for arc length, we have this:

which equals 31.4. Now subtract that from the circumference of the whole circle and you get the outside of the circle minus that arc length. That's 94.2. But we have to go in the radius times 2 to enclose the pie shaped piece we cut away. So we have 134.2. She should've just stuck with enclosing the circle; she would have used less fencing!
Let

using a graph tool
see the attached figure
The figure is a triangle
we know that
<u>The Heron's Formula</u> is a method for calculating the area of a triangle when you know the lengths of all three sides.
Hero's Formula is equal to

where
p is is half the perimeter of the triangle
a,b,c are the lengths of the sides of a triangle
so
Step 
<u>Find the length sides of the triangle</u>
a) <u>Find the distance AB</u>

Substitute


b) <u>Find the distance AC</u>

Substitute


c) <u>Find the distance BC</u>

Substitute


Step
<u>Find the perimeter of the triangle</u>

<u>Find the half of the perimeter </u>

Step 
<u>Find the area of the triangle</u>



therefore
<u>the answer is the option </u>
a) 1.65 mi^2.
