Lets solve the equalities first.
NP>MN
Cancel out the N
P>M
Next
MP<MN
Cancel out the M
P<N
M<P<N
The answer is C.
The two triangles we can see in the diagram are similar, which means that their measurements are proportional. Line MN on the larger triangle MNP is 71.5ft long, and its corresponding line, MA, on the smaller triangle is 71.5-22= 49.5ft long. This means that the scale factor from the bigger to the smaller triangle is 71.5/49.5=13/9.
If line MP on the bigger rectangle is 97.5ft long, then its corresponding line, MB, must be 97.5÷13/9=67.5 ft long.
Therefore, x=67.5 ft
Answer:
I don’t have enough context clues to answer your question I’m afraid
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
9 = x (assuming 15 is the hypotenuse)
Step-by-step explanation:
15^2 = 12^2 + x^2
225 = 144 + x^2
subtract 144 from both sides
81 = x^2
square root both sides
9 = x
Your answer would be 45 and 1/3
