<h3>
Answer: Choice D. 12,600 feet</h3>
============================================================
Explanation:
We have two similar triangles here, so we can set up the proportion below to solve for x
5200/(5200+6500) = 5600/x
5200/11700 = 5600/x
5200x = 11700*5600 .... cross multiply
5200x = 65,520,000
x = (65,520,000)/(5200)
x = 12,600 which shows why the answer is choice D
side note: 12,600 ft = 2.386 miles approximately
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Δ CED and Δ CAB are similar thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
, substitute values
=
=
( cross- multiply )
12x = 156 - x ( add x to both sides )
13x = 156 ( divide both sides by 13 )
x = 12
Thus
AC = 156 - x = 156 - 12 = 144 → D
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the figure = Area of rectangle with dimensions 16 in and 4 in + Area of two right triangles with base (7 - 4 = 3) 3 in and height 8 in
