Full Answer.
If the triangle is an equilateral triangle, then all three angles are exactly 60 degrees each. A right-angled triangle has one angle of 90 degrees, which is the right angle, with two more angles that total 90 degrees when added together.
In order to form triangle PQT and quadrilateral TQRS, point T must lie on line PS which is 16 cm. long.
If the ratio of PT to TS is 5:3 and the total length of PS is 16, then PT must be 10 and TS must be 6 (10 + 6 =16) and 10:6 is the same ratio as 5:3. Another way to think about it is 5/3 = 10/6.
Now you have all the lengths that you need to find the areas of the quadrilateral and the triangle.
Make sure you draw a diagram of it!!
I think I can! I recently covered algebra in 6th grade, (if that's what grade ur in) and I'm pretty good at 6th grade algebra
The given data is the following:
Student Trial 1 Trial 2 Trial 3 Average
----------- -------- -------- -------- ------------
1 66.0 66.5 68.5 67.0
2 67.5 64.0 70.5 67.3
3 60.3 60.5 60.5 61.0
4 55.0 58.0 59.0 57.3
Let us check the reported averages.
Student 1:
Average = (66.0 + 66.5 + 68.5)/3 = 67.0 Correct
Student 2:
Average = (67.5 + 64.0 + 70.5)/3 = 67.3 Correct
Student 3:
Average = (60.3 + 60.5 + 60.5)/3 = 604 Incorrect
Student 4:
Average = (55.0 + 58.0 + 59.0)/3 = 57.3 Correct
Answer: Student 3
