Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf  5\ red\ pencils}

Step-by-step explanation:

Total pencils = 30

Probability of picking a red = 1/6

Red pencils in the box = probability × total pencils

= 1/6 × 30

= 5 red pencils

So, there are 5 red pencils in the box.

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!

Based on the information given say whether or not △ABC∼△FED. Explain your reasoning.
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Yes, △ABC ∼ △FED by AA postulate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Two triangles ABC and FED.

m∠A = m∠B

m∠C = m∠A + 30°

m∠E = m∠F = x

m∠D = 2x-20°.

Now, let m∠A = m∠B = y

So, m∠C = m∠A + 30° = y+30

Now, sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180°. Therefore,

m∠A + m∠B +  m∠C = 180

y+y+y+30=180\\3y=180-30\\3y=150\\y=\frac{150}{3}=50

Therefore, m∠A = 50°, m∠B = 50° and m∠C =  m∠A + 30° = 50 + 30 = 80°.

Now, consider triangle FED,

m∠D+ m∠E + m∠F = 180

2x-20+x+x=180\\4x=180+20\\4x=200\\x=\frac{200}{4}=50

Therefore,  m∠F = 50°  

m∠E = 50° and  

m∠D =  2x-20=2(50)-20=100-20=80\°

So, both the triangles have congruent corresponding angle measures.

m∠A = m∠F = 50°

m∠B = m∠E = 50°

m∠C = m∠D = 80°

Therefore, the two triangles are similar by AA postulate.

What is the surface area of the rectangular prism below 7, 7, 14
Julli [10]

Answer:

Surface Area   A = 490 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of a prism A = 2(w l +h l + h w)

where l = length

        w = width

        h = height

l = 7 cm; w = 7 cm ; h = 14 cm

Surface Area = 2 { ( 7 × 7) + ( 14 × 7) + ( 14 × 7)}

            A = 2 { 49 + 98 + 98}

            A = 2 × 245

            A = 490 cm²
