Answer:
15 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ The distance covered by plane in first second = 100 ft,
Also, in each succeeding second it climbs 100 feet more than it climbed during the previous second,
So, distance covered in second second = 200,
In third second = 300,
In fourth second = 400,
............, so on....
Thus, the total distance covered by plane in n seconds = 100 + 200 + 300 +400......... upto n seconds
( Sum of AP )
Suppose the distance covered in n seconds is 12,000 feet,
∵ n can not be negative,
Hence, after 15 seconds the plane will reach an altitude of 12,000 feet above its takeoff height.
Answer:
The perimeter of triangle XYZ is 54 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
- In similar triangles, their corresponding sides are proportional, which means the ratios of the corresponding sides are equal
- Their perimeters have the same ratio as their corresponding sides, which means P1 = r × P2, where r is the ratio of similarity
- Their areas have the square of the ratio as their corresponding sides, which means A1 = r² × A2
∵ Δ ABC is similar to Δ XYZ
∵ The longest side in Δ XYZ is 25.2 cm
→ That means its corresponding side in Δ ABC is the longest side
∵ AB = 18 cm, BC = 30 cm, CA = 42 cm
∴ The longest side in Δ ABC is CA
∴ CA is the corresponding side of the side of length 25.2 cm
∴ The ratio of similarity = = 0.6 ⇒ (r)
∵ The perimeter of Δ ABC = AB + BC + CA
∴ The perimeter of Δ ABC = 18 + 30 + 42
∴ The perimeter of Δ ABC = 90 cm
→ Use the 2nd fact above
∵ P of Δ XYZ = r × P of Δ ABC
∵ r = 0.6 and P of Δ ABC = 90
∴ The perimeter of Δ XYZ = 0.6 × 90
∴ The perimeter of Δ XYZ = 54 cm
