Consider the original triangle and the reduction. A triangle has a base a and height 8 centimeters. Another triangle has a base of 3 centimeters and height of 4 centimeters. What is the length of side a in centimeters? one-sixth one-half 2 6.

Answers

Answer 1

So, the length of triangle side a in centimeters is 6.

A triangle is a polygon with three edges and three vertices. It is one of the basic shapes in geometry. A triangle with vertices A, B, and C is denoted \triangle ABC. In Euclidean geometry, any three points, when non-collinear, determine a unique triangle and simultaneously, a unique plane.

We can use the fact that the ratio of corresponding sides in similar figures is constant to solve this problem.

Since the two triangles are similar, we know that the ratio of their sides is constant. Letting x represent the length of side a in centimeters, we have

(a/3) = (8/4)

We can solve this equation by multiplying both sides by 3 to get

a = (8/4) * 3

= 6

Therefore, the length of side a in centimeters is 6.

The answer is therefore 6.

Answer 2

Since the two triangles are similar, we know that the ratio of their sides is constant. Letting x represent the length of side a in centimeters, we have

(a/3) = (8/4)

We can solve this equation by multiplying both sides by 3 to get

a = (8/4) * 3

= 6

Therefore, the length of side a in centimeters is 6.

The answer is therefore 6.

If the length of an arc of measure 55 degrees is 3.87 inches find the circumference of the circle

Answers

Answer:

25.33 is the circumference of the circle

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, given the measure of the arc, we want to get the circumference of the circle

mathematically, the length of an arc can be calculated using the formula;

theta/360 * 2 * pi* r

where 2 * pi * r = circumference of the circle

theta is the angle subtended at the center which is 55 degrees in this case

Thus, we have ;

55/360 * 2 * pi * r = 3.87

2 * pi * r = (3.87 * 360)/55

2 * pi * r = 25.33 inches

A rectangular prism has a base area 56 ft.² and a volume of 840 ft.³ the length of the base is longer than the width if the sum of the length and the width of the base is equal to the height of the pyramid what is the length of the base in feet

Answers

Answer:

The length of the base in feet is 8 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume V of the rectangular prism is given by

V = l × w × h

But Area, A = l × w

∴ V = A × h

Where A is the base area and h is the height

From the question

A = 56 ft.²  and V = 840 ft.³

∴ 840 ft.³ = 56 ft.² × h

840 ft.³ / 56 ft.² = h

15 ft. = h

∴ h = 15 ft.

Hence, the height of the rectangular prism is 15 ft.

Also, from the question

the sum of the length and the width of the base is equal to the height

i.e l + w = h

where l is the length of the base and w is the width of the base

Then, l + w = 15 ------ (1)

Also, A = l × w

Then, 56 = l × w ------- (2)

From equation (1)

l + w = 15

Then, w = 15 - l ------- (3)

Substitute this into equation (2)

56 = l × w

56 = l × (15-l)

56 = 15l - l²

Then,

l²- 15l + 56 = 0

l² -8l -7l + 56 = 0

l(l - 8) -7(l - 8) = 0

(l - 7)(l - 8) = 0

l - 7 = 0 OR l - 8 = 0

∴ l = 7 OR l = 8

Substitute the values of l into equation (3)

w = 15 - l

when l = 7

w = 15 - 7

w = 8

and when l = 8

w = 15 - 8

w = 7

From the question, the length of the base is longer than the width

∴ l = 8 and w = 7

Hence, the length of the base in feet is 8 ft.

O B. The number of dessert tickets sold.
O C. The number of dollars collected for dinner tickets.
D. The number of dollars collected for dessert tickets.
O Other:

Answers

X is next to the number 10, so x would be the number of dinner tickets sold.

Rewrite x + y = 100 to x = 100-y

Now replace that in the 2nd equation:

10(100-y) + 6y = 900

Simplify:

1000 -10y + 6y = 900

Combine like terms:

1000 -4y = 900

Subtract 1000 from both sides

-4y = -100

Divide both sides by-4

Y = 25

Replace y in the first equation and solve for x

X + 25 = 100

X = 75

A) 75 dinner tickets were sold

B) 25 dessert tickets were sold

C) 75 x 10 = $750

D) 25 x 6 = $150

the number of yards be 0.3125

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of yards will each piece of fabric be is shown below:

Given that

There is [tex]3 \frac{3}{4}[/tex] yards long i.e. 15 ÷ 4

And, it should be cut into 12 equal pieces

So, the number of yards   will each piece of fabric be is

= 15 ÷ 4 ÷ 12 ÷ 1

= 15 ÷ 48

= 0.3125

Hence, the number of yards be 0.3125

Answer:

50 hundredths = ______ thousandths equals?

Answers

Answer:

50/100 = 500/1000 or alternatively .50 = .500

Answer:

500

Step-by-step explanation:

50 hundredths written in standard form is 0.50 .

**Adding zeroes to the end of a decimal does not change the value of the number.

1 hundredth = 0.01

1 thousandth = 0.001

So, if there are 50 hundredths, how many thousandths would there be?

The difference between hundredths and thousandths are the placement of the decimal point and how many decimal places there are after it. Hundredths have 2, while thousandths have 3.

Back to the example, 1 hundredth = 10 thousandths:

0.01 = 0.010

If there are 50 hundredths, that would mean that there are 10 times more thousandths in the same number.

0.50 = 0.500

50 hundredths = 500 thousandths

5- 3x+5(3) and (6x+10) +(3x+5)

6- they’re equivalent because if you multiply each value for the first equation by 3, you get the original equation, the second is equal at because 6x+10 is equal to 2 sides while 3x+5 is still equal to one, so adding thos together would still give you the original equation, I’m sorry if this is wrong.
