The lengths of the sides of one triangle are 8 inches,
10 inches, and 12 inches. what is the perimeter in inches
of a similar triangle whose shortest side is 4 inches?
a-10
b-12
c-15
d-30

option C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a shape or plane figure is the total distance around it. The formula for determining the perimeter of a triangle is expressed as

Perimeter = a + b + c

Where a, b and c are the measure of the sides of the triangle.

The lengths of the sides of one triangle are 8 inches, 10 inches, and 12 inches. The shortest side is 8 inches. If a similar triangle has its shorted side as 4 inches, it means that the ratio of each side of the big triangle to the corresponding sides on the small triangle is

8/4 = 2

Therefore, the sides of the small triangle are 4, 5 and 6 inches.

The perimeter of the small triangle would be

Perimeter = 4 + 5 + 6 = 15 inches

answer: lol haha i'm in flvs too!

but to answer question number 1 would be a.

and number 2 would be c.

2 & 7

step-by-step explanation:

he climbs 300 ft/hr at a constant rate. the peak is at 1,500 ft.

when going up, he reaches 600 ft in 2 hours. remember, that he is going in a constant rate. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = 2

assuming that he takes the same route back (meaning that it's a 1500 ft route back, you can solve.

note also that you are solving when he gets back to 600 ft after he reaches the peak.

first, find the amount of hours it takes to get up the peak. divide the total amount (1500), with the ft/her (300) to get the amount of hours (x):

1500/300 = x

x = 5

it takes jamie 5 hours to get up. now, he is returning down, and reaches 600 (his current destination). remember that he climbs at a constant 300 ft/hr. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = x

x = 2

now add the two numbers together.

x = 5 + 2 = 7

jamie takes 7 hours to go up the mountain and reach his current position when descending.

(total amount/constant rate) = (time).

remember that it is a constant rate, so in total, when he gets back down the mountain, it will take the same amount of time as when he goes up. the total amount for the round trip is: 5 + 5 = 10.
