Answer:

7.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The third longest side is also the second shortest side.

The 14 ft side of quadrilateral ABCD corresponds to the 6 ft side of quadrilateral EFGH.

14/6 = 18/x

7/3 = 18/x

7x = 18 * 3

7x = 54

x = 54/7

x = 7.7

Answer: D. 7.7 feet

How can the Angle-Angle Similarity Postulate be used to prove the two triangles below are similar? Explain your answer using com
zloy xaker [14]

To use the AA postulate directly, you need to show that two corresponding angles are congruent. In order to show that here, you must calculate the value of one of the missing angle measures. Either of the missing angles can be found by invoking the fact that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°.

After finding either missing angle, you can show that the measures of two angles in one triangle are identical to the measures of two angles in the other triangle, hence the triangles are similar by the AA postulate.

Eva estimate the 475 songs will fit on her MP3 player. The actual amount of songs that fit is 380. Find percent error
Shalnov [3]

Answer: 20%

Step-by-step explanation: Let’s use the variable ‘x’ as the percent. You need to make an equation and fill in the blanks. ___ is ____% of ____. So 380 is x% of 475. Now solve the problem. 380/475 = x/100, cross multiply. Now you have 475x = 380 * 100 or 475x = 38000. Now divide each side by 475. Now you have, x = 80%. Now you subtract. 100% - 80%. AND YOU GET 20%
