Answer:
1. The fraction is 11/9
Step-by-step explanation:
You didn't specify which ones you need help with so I'm answering the first one for you.
let x=1.2 —equation 1
10x=12.2 —equation 2
subtract equation 1 from 2
10x-x=12.2-1.2
9x=11
x=11/9
a. Based on the AA similarity theorem, Gilligan can conclude that, ΔABC ~ ΔSDC.
b. To the nearest tenth of a foot, the distance from the ship to the shore is: 847.8 ft.
<h3>What are Similar Triangles?</h3>
The ratios of the corresponding sides of two triangles that are similar are equal.
Two triangles with two pairs of congruent angles are similar to each other based on the AA similarity theorem.
a. In ΔABC and ΔSDC, there are two pairs of congruent angles - ∠DCS ≅ ∠BCA (vertical angles) and ∠ABC ≅ ∠SDC (right angles)
Therefore, based on the AA similarity theorem, Gilligan can conclude that, ΔABC ~ ΔSDC.
b. AB = 150 ft
Distance from the ship to the shore = SD = ?
DC = 130 ft
CB = 23 ft
Thus:
AB/SD = CB/DC
Substitute
150/SD = 23/130
SD = (150×130)/23
SD = 847.8
Thus, to the nearest tenth of a foot, the distance from the ship to the shore is: 847.8 ft.
