Answer:

<em>The corresponding side length is 8 inches</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Similar Shapes</u>

Two shapes are similar if all of their side lengths are in the same proportion. For example, triangle 1 has sides of 3-4-5 and another similar triangle has sides of 15-20-25. Note all their lengths are proportional with a scale factor of 5.

We are given the perimeter of figure A Pa=24 inches and the perimeter of figure B Pb=36 inches. The scale factor can be obtained as 36/24=3/2.

If one of the lengths of figure B is 12 inches, then the corresponding length for figure A is 12/(3/2) = 8 in.

The corresponding side length is 8 inches

Hi there!

a. 8x^2 - 1
(x^2 - 4x + 5) + (7x^2 + 4x - 6)
= x^2 + 7x^2 - 4x + 4x - 1
= 8x^2 - 1

b. 5x^2 + 7x - 7
(7x^2 + 4x - 6) - (2x^2 - 3x + 1)
= 7x^2 + 4x - 6 - 2x^2 + 3x - 1
= 7x^2 - 2x^2 + 4x + 3x - 6 - 1
= 5x^2 + 7x -7

Hope this helps!

A square has a perimeter of 52cm , what is the area ?
UNO [17]

✧・゚: *✧・゚:*    *:・゚✧*:・゚✧

                  Hello!

✧・゚: *✧・゚:*    *:・゚✧*:・゚✧

❖ The area is 169 square cm.

Find the value of each side (a square has 4 sides so divide by 4 ):

52/4 = 13

To find the area of a square, you only need 2 sides so multiply 2 sides:

13 x 13 = 139

Area = 139 square cm
