Answer: 35.54 degrees</h3>
How I got this answer:
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(A) = BC/AC
tan(A) = 5/7
A = arctan(5/7) .... apply the inverse tangent, same as arctangent
A = 35.5376778 ... make sure your calculator is in degree mode
A = 35.54 .... rounding to two decimal places
To determine how much of the wall is blue we first need to find its area. The wall is a rectangle, then its area is the product of its height and length:

Hence, the area of the wall is 140 square ft. To determine how much of the wall is already painted we multiply this by 1/2, then:

Therefore, 70 square ft are blue.
It’s 6x6=36, because if 4 over 2 was 4 twice then 6 over 2 is 6 twice.
Answer:
a) 3/2 or 1.5
b) 2/3 or ≈.66
Step-by-step explanation:
AB corresponds to DE because they are both the longest sides of their respective triangles.
a) The scale factor would be what you would multiply 8 by to get 12. 12/8 is 3/2 or 1.5
b) The scale factor would be what you multiply 12 by to get 8. 8/12 is 2/3 or ≈.66
