Answer:
a) ∆ABC ~ ∆EDC by AA similarity
b) ED/AB = 3/4
c) 15 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Two angles in each triangle are the same, so the AA similarity postulate can be used to declare the ∆ABC ~ ∆EDC. (Each triangle includes a right angle and angle C.)
__
b) Corresponding sides are ED/AB, DC/BC, EC/AC. The ratio of corresponding sides is ED/BC = (12 cm)/(16 cm) = 3/4.
__
c) Using the ratios identified above, we have ...
DC/BC = 3/4 = x/(20 cm)
x = 3/4(20 cm)
x = 15 cm
Answer:
Angle 6 is equal to 60 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
I think is is 5.4
Step-by-step explanation:
what I did is divided the problem
Starting amount: 982 pounds of grain
Since Mr. Parker fed 240 pounds of grain to his pigs, subtract 240 pounds from 982 pounds of grain.
982 - 240 = 742
After feeding pigs: 742 pounds of grain
Mr. Parker fed another 460 pounds of grain to his cows from his 742 pounds, so subtract 460 pounds from 742 pounds.
742 - 460 = 282
After feeding pigs and cows: 282 pounds of grain
Mr. Parker has 282 pounds of grain left.
A, the length of the two smallest sides of a triangle added together must always equal a length longer than the longest side
