Answer:

in right angled triangle ABC

hypotenuse [h]=65ft

base[b]=xft

height[p]=63ft

by using Pythagoras law

h²=p²+b²

65²=63²+x²

x²=65²-63²

x=√256

x=16feet

so <em><u>the third side of the </u></em><em><u>sail</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>1</u></em><em><u>6</u></em><em><u>f</u></em><em><u>t</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>

Which statement is true about the value of (6)? A.(6) greater-than 6
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

D. (6) is the distance between 6 and 0, and the distance is negative from 6 to 0

Step-by-step explanation:

(6) means the number exists in the negative state. It is -6.

Option A - As it is -6, it cannot be greater than positive 6. So, it is incorrect.

Option B - As it is -6, it cannot be less than negative 6. So, it is wrong.

Option C - As it is -6, its distance cannot be 0 to 6, and it should not be positive.

Option D - As it is -6, its distance should be negative and the distance is from 6 to 0. Therefore, it is the correct answer.

Elenas bed measures 3‘ x 6‘ on the scale drawing what are the actual measurements of her bed
Sonbull [250]

Using proportions, supposing a scale of 1 inch = 3 feet, the actual measurements of her bed are given by: 9 ft x 18 ft.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and equations can be built to find the desired measures in the problem using basic arithmetic operations such as multiplication or division, from the relations built in the problem.

One example of application of proportions is for scale problems, as the actual scale and the drawing length are compared to find the actual length of the object drawn.

In the context of this problem, the scale is given by:

1 inch = 3 feet.

The drawn length of the bed is given by:

3 inches x 6 inches.

Hence the actual length is given by:

9 feet x 18 feet.

As:

  • 3 x 3 = 9.
  • 6 x 3 = 18.

<h3>What is the missing information?</h3>

The scale of the drawing is missing, hence we are going to suppose that it is 1 inch = 3 feet.
