Similar just means that the two figures have the same ratio, so the first thing we are going to look for is the ratio.
We take a side from both figures that are congruent and make it into a fraction.
Side AE= 12
Side IJ = 4
Ratio = 12/4 Simplified to 3.
We already know segment lengths
AE = 12 congruent to BC = 12
ED = 4 congruent to DC =4
All we need to know now is segment BA, this is where we use the ratio of the two figures.
Segment HI is congruent to segment BA.
All we have to do here is multiply segment HI by the ratio to find segment BA.
2 × 3 = 6
So, BA = 6.
Now add all of our segments from the larger figure together!
6 + 12 + 12 + 4 + 4 = 38
Figure ABCDE has a perimeter of 38 in.
Here you go, hope it helps:)
Answer:
85.1 g
Step-by-step explanation:
Boris has 91.5 g of pepper
He used 0.4g to make one plate of scrambled egg
If she made 16 plates of scrambled egg then the amount of pepper that will be left can be calculated as follows
= 0.4×16
= 6.4g
= 91.5g - 6.4g
= 85.1g
Hence Boris will have 85.1g of pepper left
Answer:
28 meters above sea level or just positive 28
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution to x + 8.5 = 64.5 is 56.
x + 8.5 = 64.5
- 8.5 - 8.5
---------------------------
x = 56
