Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
DB = 9 units (by counting)
BA = 12 units (by counting)
DA can be found by using the pythagorean theorem
a^2 +b^2 = c^2
BD^2 + BA^2 = DA ^2
9^2 +12^2 = DA^2
81 +144 = DA^2
225 = DA ^2
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(225) = sqrt(DA^2)
15 = DA
LJ = 3 units (by counting)
JK = 4 units (by counting)
LK can be found by using the pythagorean theorem
a^2 +b^2 = c^2
LJ^2 + JK^2 = LK ^2
3^2 +4^2 = LK^2
9 +116 = LK^2
25 = LK ^2
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(25) = sqrt(LK^2)
5 = LK
Scale factor from BAD to JKL
15 to 5
Divide each side by 5
3 to 1
We multiply by 1/3 to go from the big to small
Answer:
it is 27/16 or 1 11/16
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a die has six faces, 6 outcomes are possible
Since a coin has two faces, 2 outcomes are possible
Multiply the chances together and you get 12
The answer is 48 feet (D).
Explanation:
To solve this, you must think of the monument and its shadow and Adam and his shadow as a triangle, the person/object being the vertical leg, the shadows being the horizontal leg, and a line connecting them being the hypotenuse. Also, we can assume that these triangles are similar. First, we can set the scale to be 40/5 (the two shadows set a scale because the triangles are similar). Then, we can put x/6 (the actual things are similar, and the scale was established to be building/measurement). Next, we can set the two fractions equal to each other (40/5 = x/6) and solve. We can cross multiply to get 5x = 40 * 6. That goes to 5x = 240. Finally, we can divide by five on each side to get x = 48 feet (D).
For this case, the first thing we should do is use the following equation:
x ^ 2 + x-30
Here, we substitute the value of x = 20
We have then:
(20) ^ 2 + (20) -30 = 390 m ^ 2
Answer:
the area of the land when the length of the dentist's office is 20 meters is:
390 m ^ 2
