In the diagram below, OL is perpendicular to DX.<br>Pro<br>No 13<br>Tea<br>Find the length of OX​
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Line OX = 7.09

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. Find attached the complete question.

SOLUTION

Given:

Line OL is perpendicular to DX

Line DX = 13

Line PO = the hypotenuse of the larger triangle

Line PO = 10

Line BO = hypotenuse of smaller triangle

Line BO = 12

To find length of line OX, we would apply rule of similar and congruent triangles.

∆DPO = ∆XBO

<POD = <BOX

Line DP is parallel to line XB

Since length of side DX = 13

Side DX = side DO + side OX

Let side DO = x

Side OX = 13-x

(Adj of ∆DPO)/(Adj of ∆XBO) = hyp of ∆DPO/hyp of ∆XBO

DO/OX = PO/BO

x/ (13-x) = 10/12

12x = 10(13-x)

12x = 130-10x

12x +10x = 130

22x = 130

x = 130/22 = 65/11

x is approximately = 5.91

Therefore line OX = 13 - 5.91

Line OX = 7.09

The tropical rain forests are known to have a large variety of animals. One example is the orchid mantis that is highly camoufla
Margarita [4]

Answer: b. Orchid mantises tend to be advantaged in habitats that remain constant; the rain forest habitat is likely to shift because of global climate change.

Explanation:

The orchid mantis is a predator in South East Asia that camouflages itself as an orchid to catch its prey.

While the tropical cockroach is a more hardy specie, the optimum habitat for orchid mantises is one with limited variation in temperature, moisture and humidity. Therefore, as temperatures increase and climate change results in severe weather changes, it will lead to adverse effects on orchid mantises.

How did the sephradic jews who immigrated to israel differ from the ashkenazi jews?
sergey [27]

They differ in some social and ritual customs, and in some aspects of their cuisine.

These 'surface' differences stem from their respective historical geographic origins.  The history of the 'Sephardim' springs from western Europe and North Africa, including Spain, Portugal, Turkey, Morocco, Egypt, and Arabia.  The history of the 'Ashkenazim' is rooted in Eastern Europe, including Germany, Poland, the Baltics, Russia, and the 'Stans' ... Tajik, Kazakh, Uzbek, etc.

One fascinating feature of this split, isolated evolution of Judaism ... and there are many ... is the fact that even though the two streams evolved, with almost zero contact, for as much as 1,000 years, a Sephardic Torah scroll and an Ashkenazic Torah scroll are totally identical, down to the last character in every one of their 10,290 lines of text written in 245 columns.
