It’s True.. you take the “extreme” variable from each proportion and cross multiply them before setting them equal to the product of the two “means” (which are just the other 2 numbers in the proportions).
4:5
explanation-
Express the given ratios as fraction
4 : 5 = 4/5 and 2 : 3 =2/3
Now find the L.C.M (least common multiple) of 5 and 3
The L.C.M (least common multiple) of 5 and 3 is 15.
Making the denominator of each fraction equal to 15, we have
4/5 = (4 ×3)/(5 ×3) = 12/15 and 2/3 = (2 ×5)/(3 ×5) = 10/15
Clearly, 12 > 10
Now, 12/15 > 10/15
Therefore, 4 : 5 > 2 : 3.
Answer:
n=2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
n=1/2÷3/4
n=1/2×4/3
n=4/6
n=2/3
Answer:
d. 112°
Step-by-step explanation:
m<A = 64° (given)
m<ABC = 180° - 132° (linear pair)
m<ABC = 48°
According to the exterior angle theorem of a triangle, the exterior angle of a ∆ is equal to the opposite interior angles of the ∆.
48° and 64° are interior angles of ∆ABC that are opposite to the exterior angle, x.
Therefore,
x = 48 + 64
x = 112°
