a map distance of 5 inches represents 200 miles of actual distance. suppose the distance between two cities on the map is 7 inches. what is the actual distance between the two cities? write the rule you used to find the actual distance

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Set up a proportion:

5/200 = 7/x

Cross multiply:

200 * 7 = 5 * x

1400 = 5x

Divide 5 to both sides:

x = 280

Triangle ABC has a perimeter of 22cmAB=8cm
BC=5cm
By calculations, deduce whether triangle ABC is a right angled triangle

Answers

ΔABC is not a right angled triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given perimeter of ΔABC = 22 cm, AB = 8 cm and BC = 5 cm. Find AC.

Perimeter = AB + BC + AC

⇒ AC = 22 - (8 + 5) = 22 - 13 = 9 cm

Step 2: Find whether the triangle is right angled using Pythagoras Theorem.

AC² = AB² + BC²

⇒ AC² = 9² = 81

⇒ AB² + BC² = 8² + 5² = 64 + 25 = 89

∴ AC² ≠ AB² + BC²

⇒ ΔABC is not a right angled triangle.

13.6 cm

Answers

Answer:. If the Area is 177, it should have been given in square centimeters.

If one side is 13 cm, the other side is about 13.6cm.

If one side is 11 cm, the other side should be about 16.1 cm. Even the choice is incorrect!

A/x = w

Step-by-step explanation: to find a side when the Area is given, divide the Area by the length or width given.
