Lori is drawing a picture of her dining room. the scale in her drawing is 3in : 6ft. the length of the living room is 8 inches and the width is 15 inches. what are the length and width of the actual room? find the area of the actual room.

480 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

1 ft = 12 in, so 3in : 6ft would be 3in : 72in, which can be simplified to 1in : 24in. then you use the scale to find the lengths. 8in: (24·8)in. 24 · 8 = 192. to convert to feet, do 192/12=16ft. for the width, do the same thing. 15in: (24·15)in. 24·15=360. 360/12=30ft. For area, multiply the length and width. 16·30=480ft.

q: 92 degrees

hope i ^-^

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
