Answer:

The correct answer is A. 15.2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment AB is congruent to the segment BC  eg AB≅BC Why?

We can prove it with the triangle congruent theorem, postulate side-side-angle

We are watching triangle ΔABO and triangle ΔCBO, they are congruent

first element side OB=OB - common side

second element side OA=OC=r - radius of the circle

third element angle ∡ABO≅∡CBO=90°

According to the postulate side-side-angle we can conclude that triangles

ΔABO≅ΔCBO (triangles are congruent)

If they are congruent all of their elements are also congruent and therefore also

side AB=BC  => AB+BC=AC,  which is chord  => 7.6+7.6=15.2 units

AC= 15.2 units ( chord )

Good luck!!!

icang [17]

Answer:

2/5 of a mile

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest approach is to realise that one hour is 3 times longer than  

20 minutes. The longer the time, the more they will pave.


2/5  of a mile, in 20 minutes, how much in 60 minutes?(#)

They will pave 3 times more.

2/15 x 3/1 = 6/15 of a mile

6/15 = 2/5 of a mile

notka56 [123]
They are both similar because you just have to multiply 7 x 2 and then add the zeros. 7 x 20 is 140 and 7 x2000 is 14000
