Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The total length of the space between rungs is the overall length less the width of 8 rungs, so is 206 -8(10). That space is divided into 7 equal parts, as shown by the equation in choice D.
_____
Choice A looks similar, but is not. In that equation, only the term 8(10) is divided by 7. You want the difference to be divided by 7, so must have a grouping symbol of some kind. Choice D uses the division bar to group the terms of the numerator. Parentheses would work, too, as in ...
d = (206 -8(10))÷7
but without them, the equation is incorrect.

To answer this question we will have to make use of <u>the Isosceles Triangle Theorem</u> which states that the perpendicular bisector of the base of an isosceles triangle is also the angle bisector of the vertex angle. Thus, as a corollary we know that is EF is the angle bisector of the vertex angle ∠E, then, EF is the perpendicular bisector of the of the base DK.
Please follow the diagram of a complete understanding of the logic and the solution.
As EF is the angle bisector as given in the question, thus we will have:
.
Also, from the Theorem we know that KF will be half of DK and thus, KF will be: centimeters.
Likewise, from the same theorem we have:
