Answer:
175 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question,
(a) ΔABC and ΔEDC are similar because all the angles in ΔABC is equal to the corresponding angles in ΔEDC.
I.e, ΔABC is equiangular to ΔEDC. (AAA).
(b) From the diagram.
for similar angle, ratio of corresponding sides are equal
100/d = 4x/7x
100/d = 4/7
where d = distance across the river
solve for d
d = (100×7)/4
d = 175 ft

Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
By the diagram, you can see the sum of segment AB and segment BC is segment AC. Adding the given expressions for AB and B is
. Simplifying the equation
, gives
. Substituting
in the equation for segment AC gives 15.
-- The smallest perimeter you can make with a certain area
is a circle.
-- The NEXT smallest perimeter with the same area is a square.
With 1-ft by 1-ft square bricks, the shortest perimeter she could
make would be by using her bricks to make it as square as possible.
Without cutting bricks into pieces, the best she could do would be
(13 bricks) x (3 bricks) .
= (13-ft) x (3-ft)
Perimeter = (2 x length) + (2 x width)
= (2 x 13-ft) + (2 x 3-ft)
= (26-ft) + (6-ft) = 32 feet <== shortest perimeter.
-- Then, the more UNSQUARE you make it, the more perimeter
it takes to enclose the same area. That means Mary has to make
a rectangle as long and skinny as she can.
The longest perimeter she can make (without cutting bricks into
pieces) is (39 bricks) x (1 brick) .
= (39-ft) x (1-ft) .
Perimeter = (2 x length) + (2 x width)
= (2 x 39-ft) + (2 x 1-ft)
= (78-ft) + (2-ft) = 80 feet .
What she'll have then is a brick path, 39 feet long and 1 foot wide,
and when you walk on it, you'll need to try hard to avoid falling off
because it's only 1 foot wide.
