Answer:
Jamal is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
3:4 is equivalent to 9:12, not 18:12.
We can see that for 3:4, the left side is less than the right, but for 18:12, left side is greater than the right, which immediately tells us the ratios are not equivalent.
So first we would convert 4 1/2 foot lengths into a decimal.
4.5 feet
Now we divide 25 by 4.5
25 ÷ 4.5 = 5.5
So Yancy can cut the board into five 4 1/2 foot lengths because the question says how many can he cut.

means that the triangles are congruent, that is exactly identical.
The order of letters is very important. Form the given congruence we can write the following ratio:

(notice that we do not mix the order: the first 2 letters of VWX are compared to the first 2 letters of KLJ and so on)
the ratio is one because the corresponding sides are equal.


Answer: 5 units
<u>Given</u>:
Given that the circle with center O.
The radius of the circle is OB.
The chord of the circle O is PQ and the length of PQ is 12 cm.
We need to determine the length of the segment PA.
<u>Length of the segment PA:</u>
We know that, "if a radius is perpendicular to the chord, then it bisects the chord and its arc".
Thus, we have;

Substituting the value PQ = 12, we get;


Thus, the length of the segment PA is 6 cm.
Hence, Option d is the correct answer.
I am not exactly sure, but I am almost positive it is a spere
