What is the length of AC?

What Is The Length Of AC class=

Sagot :

Answer:

B) 4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

the big triangle CAB and small triangle CED are simular (given)

this means the ratio between their corresponding sides will be the same.

find corresponding sides with alternate interior angle theorem

m CDE= m CBA

vertical angles theorem

m ACB = m DCE

therefore, AC corresponds to CE

find ratio of sides

7 miles = 36960 feet

36960/ corresponding side 21 ft

36960/ 21= 1780 ft

multiply by 1780 to get from small side to big side

small side CE = 12 ft

12*1780

=21120 ft =AC (in ft)

convert to miles (ft to miles is ft/5280)

21120/5280

=4 miles

hope this helps
