This is Pythagorean theorem.
We already know a and c.
a = 4 and c = 10
4² + b² = 10²
16 + b² = 100
Subtact 16 from each side.
b² = 84
Square root of each side:
b = ≈9.165 or √84

If the shapes are similar and the smaller trapezoid's long base is half of the big trapezoid's long base than that means that the small trapezoid's short base would be half of the big trapezoid's short base.
Answer: The Little Trapezoid's shorter base is 1 mi long.
I hope this helps.
The last answer is the correct one.
If it does not make sense ask for clarification.
By applying the theorem of intersecting secants, the measure of angle XYZ is equal to: A. 35°.
<h3>How to determine angle <XYZ?</h3>
By critically observing the geometric shapes shown in the image attached below, we can deduce that they obey the theorem of intersecting secants.
<h3>What is the theorem of
intersecting secants?</h3>
The theorem of intersecting secants states that when two (2) lines intersect outside a circle, the measure of the angle formed by these lines is equal to one-half (½) of the difference of the two (2) arcs it intercepts.
By applying the theorem of intersecting secants, angle XYZ will be given by this formula:
<XYZ = ½ × (m<WZ - m<XZ)
Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;
<XYZ = ½ × (175 - 105)
<XYZ = ½ × 70
<XYZ = 35°.
By applying the theorem of intersecting secants, we can infer and logically deduce that the measure of angle XYZ is equal to 35°.

-x^2 + 4x + 12 = -3x + 24
-> x^2 - 7x + 12 = 0
-> (x-3)(x-4) = 0
-> x= 3 or 4
so y = 15 when x = 3, y = 12 when x = 4
