Each inch on a map of Roswell, New Mexico represents $0.51\text{ mile}$. If two hills in Roswell are $7$ inches apart on the map
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

3.57

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale factor on a map is equal to

\frac{1}{0.51}\frac{inch}{miles}

so

by proportion

Find how many miles are in the real life 7 inches apart on the map

\frac{1}{0.51}\frac{inch}{miles}=\frac{7}{x}\frac{inches}{miles}\\ \\x=0.51*7\\ \\x=3.57 \ miles

Triangle J K L is shown. Angle J K L is a right angle. An altitude is drawn from point K to point M on side L J to form a right
KiRa [710]

Answer:

3\sqrt{5}\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Theorem 1:</u> The height of right triangle drawn from the right angle to the hypotenuse divides the hypotenuse into two segments. The length of the altitude is the geometric mean of these two segments. Hence,

KM^2=ML\cdot MJ\\ \\6^2=ML\cdot 3\\ \\3ML=36\\ \\ML=12\ units

<u>Theorem 2:</u> In a right triangle, the altitude drawn from the right angle to the hypotenuse divides the hypotenuse into two segments. The length of each leg of the right triangle is the geometric mean of the lengths of the hypotenuse and the segment of the hypotenuse that is adjacent to the leg.

Thus,

KJ^2=MJ\cdot ML\\ \\KJ^2=3\cdot (3+12)\\ \\KJ^2=3\cdot 15\\ \\KJ^2=45\\ \\KJ=\sqrt{45}=3\sqrt{5}\ units
