Answer:

4

Squiggles

Step-by-step explanation:

steps

  1. convert the length of squiggles from feet to inches
  2. find the difference

1 feet = 12 inches

2 feet = 2 x 12 = 24 inches

length of squiggles = 24 + 10 = 34 inches

squiggles is longer because 34 is greater than 30

difference = 34 - 30 = 4

Since BC is parallel to DE, triangles ABC and ADE are similar. What are the lengths of the unknown sides?
Yuri [45]

Answer:

Option D. AC= 10 cm and CE= 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure two triangles ΔABC and ΔADE are similar and two lines BC║DE.

From these similar triangles we know

\frac{AB}{AD}=\frac{BC}{DE}=\frac{AC}{AE}

\frac{8}{12}=\frac{BC}{9}=\frac{AC}{AE}

Therefore \frac{AC}{AE}=\frac{8}{12}=\frac{2}{3}

Or AC=\frac{2}{3}AE

Now from pythagoras theorem

AE = √(AD²+ED²) = √(12²+9²) = √(144+81) =√225 = 15 cm

Since we know side AC = \frac{2}{3}AE

                                        = \frac{2}{3}\times 15

                                        = 10 cm

Therefore AC = 10 cm and AE = 15cm and CE = (15-10) = 5 cm
