Step-by-step explanation:
D:N
2 :3
Add them together to get the total which = 5
5 = 45
2 ?
= 18
No of dimes is 18
Answer:
31 units
Step-by-step explanation:
When the figure is a parallelogram, opposite sides have the same measure:
AD = BC
3x +7 = 5x -9 . . . . . . substitute given expressions
16 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . . add 9-3x
8 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
Use this value of x in the expression for AD to find its required length:
AD = 3(8) +7 = 24 +7
AD = 31 . . . . units
The length of segment AD must be 31 units for ABCD to be a parallelogram.
There is a theorem that says that, two tangent lines onto a circle that start from the same point are equal. For example, if we were to label the polygon ABCD, the tangent lines going from point A are equal, the lines going from point B are equal, etc.
Since we now know this rule, we can see that, for each point of the polygon you are given 1 out of 2 tangent lines for that point. Using this theorem, we can say that the other tangent line is equal to the first.
So, the bottom two tangents are 98 and 98, the right-side are both 22 and 22, the top are both 27 and 27, and the left are 22 and 22. We need to find the perimeter, or the sum of all the sides of the polygon. Seeing as the sides of the polygon are formed by all the tangent lines, we just have to find the sum of all the tangent lines.
98 + 98 + 22 + 22 + 27 + 27 + 22 + 22 =
= 196 + 88 + 54 (or 2*98 + 4*22 + 2+27) =
= 338 inches
I hope this wasnt too confusing.
