Question

Please help soon i need to get this pre-test. done

Answer 1

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles are similar, so we can estimate that the ratio between them is 1:2 (23.5/11.5~~2). Now we have that 44/2 is 22 and 44+22 is 66. The closest answer to 66 is 65.5, which is A.

Answer 2

Answer:

65.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, the two triangles are similar, since they're both right triangles, the angle in C are congruent, and the third has to be by difference. It means that the distance DC is proportional to 44 inches, on the proportion$x:44 = 11.5:23.5 \rightarrow x= 44\frac{11.5}{23.5} = 21,5 in$ To this we need to add the 44 inches traveled in the first part, to get a total of 65.5 in
