ABC and EDC are straight lines. EA is parallel to DB. EC = 8.1 cm. DC = 5.4 cm. DB = 2.6 cm. (a) Work out the length of AE. cm (

harkovskaia [24]

By applying the knowledge of similar triangles, the lengths of AE and AB are:

a. $\mathbf{AE = 3.9 $ cm}\\\\$

b. $\mathbf{AB = 2.05 $ cm} \\\\$

See the image in the attachment for the referred diagram.

The two triangles, triangle AEC and triangle BDC are similar triangles.
Therefore, the ratio of the corresponding sides of triangles AEC and BDC will be the same.

This implies that:

AC/BC = EC/DC = AE/DB

Given:

$EC = 8.1 $ cm\\\\DC = 5.4 $ cm\\\\DB = 2.6 cm\\\\AC = 6.15 $ cm$

a. Find the length of AE:

EC/DC = AE/DB

Plug in the values

$\frac{8.1}{5.4} = \frac{AE}{2.6}$

Cross multiply

$5.4 \times AE = 8.1 \times 2.6\\\\5.4 \times AE = 21.06$

Divide both sides by 5.4

$AE = \frac{21.06}{5.4} = 3.9 $ cm$

b. Find the length of AB:

$AB = AC - BC$

AC = 6.15 cm

To find BC, use AC/BC = EC/DC.

Plug in the values

$\frac{6.15}{BC} = \frac{8.1}{5.4}$

Cross multiply

$BC \times 8.1 = 6.15 \times 5.4\\\\BC = \frac{6.15 \times 5.4}{8.1} \\\\BC = 4.1$

Thus:

$AB = AC - BC$

Substitute

$AB = 6.15 - 4.1\\\\AB = 2.05 $ cm$

Therefore, by applying the knowledge of similar triangles, the lengths of AE and AB are:

a. $\mathbf{AE = 3.9 $ cm}\\\\$

b. $\mathbf{AB = 2.05 $ cm} \\\\$

Find the length and width of a rectangle. Perimeter = 50 Side A = 3x + 2 Side B = x - 5

zmey [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2 * (Side A + Side B)

= 2 * (3x + 2 + x - 5)

= 2 * (4x - 3)

= 8x - 6.

We have 8x - 6 = 50, so 8x = 56 and x = 7.

Length of rectangle = 3(7) + 2 = 23.

Width of rectangle = (7) - 5 = 2.

3. Tom, Sam and Matt are counting drum beats.

just olya [345]

Answer:

When 60 beats are heard, Tom hits 15 snare drums, Sam hits 6 kettle drums, and Matt hits 5 bass drums.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Least Common Multiple ( LCM )

The LCM of two integers a,b is the smallest positive integer that is evenly divisible by both a and b.

For example:

LCM(20,8)=40

LCM(35,18)=630

Since Tom, Sam, and Matt are counting drum beats at their own frequency, we must find the least common multiple of all their beats frequency.

Find the LCM of 4,10,12. Follow this procedure:

List prime factorization of all the numbers:

4 = 2*2

10 = 2*5

12 = 2*2*3

Multiply all the factors the greatest times they occur:

LCM=2*2*3*5=60

Thus, when 60 beats are heard, Tom hits 15 snare drums, Sam hits 6 kettle drums, and Matt hits 5 bass drums.
