Sonya wants to sew ribbon along each side of a square pillow if the pillow has an area of 144 square inches, how much ribbon must she buy to have the exact amount that she needs

48 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a square is given by

A = s^2 where s is the side length

144 = s^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(144) = sqrt(s^2)

12 = s

The side length is 12

We want to find the perimeter to determine the amount of ribbon

P =4s

P =4*12

48 inches

statement #3: proof- ang is congruent to ang ecd : angles are congruent.  

step-by-step explanation:

1: the missing angles in statement #3  

a.) acb  

reason- the reason why the answer is acb is because angle ecd and angle acb are both the same size *that's what the word congruent means this is really simple.  

2: the missing word in reason #3  

c.) vertical  

reason- the reason why the answer is vertical is because the angles in that diagram on figure 2 is slanted, which is vertical, and the e and a both lay on vertical lines. along with the other's, but e and a are the 2 main points you want to focus on. and c is kind of like your starting point, because c is for both angles, not just one.  

i hope that was and understanding.
