PLEASEE Helpp A new road was built to reroute traffic around the park, as shown in the diagram below. About how many extra miles will the traffic travel?

9514 1404 393

  A.  20 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

You will recognize this right triangle as a 3-4-5 right triangle scaled by a factor of 10 miles. That means the "old road" length is 50 miles. The new road lenth is 40+30 = 70 miles, so the added distance is ...

  70 miles - 50 miles = 20 miles . . . . extra travel distance

__

Maybe you've never heard of a 3-4-5 right triangle, so you need to use the Pythagorean theorem to compute the length of the old road. It tells you the square of that length is the sum of the squares of the new road segment:

  OR² = 40² + 30²

  OR² = 1600 +900 = 2500

  OR = √2500 = 50 . . . . the length of the old road is 50 miles

image result for what is another name for consecutive interior angles? ​

when two lines are crossed by another line (called the transversal): the pairs of angles on one side of the transversal but inside the two lines are called consecutive interior angles. in this example, these are consecutive interior angles: d and f.
