Answer:

90 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, then

50 ÷ 20 = 2.5

The legs of the similar triangle are 2.5 times the original legs, that is

legs of similar triangle = 2.5 × 36 cm = 90 cm

2/5

Since 12 out of 30 marbles were black, you can assume that the percentage of black marbles in the bag is 40% (Ex: 12/30=.4) The probability that the marble you pick is black is equal to the percentage of black marbles in the bag. 40% is equal to 2/5.

Please help!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

  (7√6)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The side ratios in these special triangles are ...

  30°-60°-90° triangle: 1 : √3 : 2

  45°-45°-90° triangle: 1 : 1 : √2

This tells you the length of the horizontal line is 7√3, and the value of x is ...

  (7√3)/√2 = (7√6)/2

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Call the length of the horizontal line "y". Then the given ratios tell you ...

  7 : y = 1 : √3   ⇒   y/7 = √3/1   ⇒   y = 7√3

and

  x : y = 1 : √2   ⇒   x/y = 1/√2   ⇒   x = y/√2

When we rationalize the denominator, we get ...

  x = (y√2)/2 = ((7√3)√2)/2 = (7√6)/2
