a polygon with seven sides is called a heptagon
Answer; c^2 = a^2 + b^2
c = 17 inches
a = 8 inches
b^2 = c^2 – a^2
b^2 = 17^2 – 8^2
b^2 = 289 – 64
b^2 = 225
b = square root of 225
b = 15 inches ≈ c.
Depending on how flexibly you interpret "about 20 times larger" to mean, the answers are B and D.
Check the ratios of the larger number to the smaller number:
A: (2.01 x 10^7)/(4.25 x 10^6) = 2.01/4.25 x 10^1 = 20.1/4.25 = 4.729
B: (8.21 x 10^-3)/(4.13 x 10^-4) = 8.21/4.13 x 10^1 = 82.1/4.13 = 19.879
C: (4.91 x 10^6)/(5.09 x 10^3) = 4.91/5.09 x 10^3 = 4910/5.09 = 964.637
D: (5.97 x 10^4)/(3.12 x 10^3) = 5.97/3.12 x 10^1 = 59.7/3.12 = 19.135
Answer:
B
a circle with a diameter of 19.3 inches
We have that
scale factor=1 in/2.5 miles
<span>the actual area of a lake is 12 square miles
</span>we know that
[area on the map]=[scale factor]²*[area actual]
[area on the map]=[1/2.5]²*[12]-----> 1.92 in²
the answer is
1.92 in²
