The bed of the truck is a rectangle, 4-ft wide and 8-ft long.

The diagonal of the rectangle is

                                 √ (4² + 8²)

                             =  √ (16 + 64)

                             =  √ (80)

                             =  8.9442... feet 

                        8.9442... feet =  8 feett  11.33 inches

Rounded to the nearest inch:    8 ft  11 in .

The necklace charm shown has two parts, each shaped like a trapezoid with identical dimensions. What is the total area, in squar
pashok25 [27]
The area of the trapezoid can be calculated through the equation, 
                               A = (b₁ + b₂)h / 2
where b₁ and b₂ are the bases and h is the height. Substituting the known values from the given, 
                              A = (25mm + 32mm)(15 mm) / 2 
                               A = 427.5 mm²
Since there are two trapezoids in the necklace, the area calculated is to be multiplied by two to get the total area. 
                        total area = (427.5 mm²)(2) 
                        <em>total area = 855 mm²</em>

Segment AB falls on line 2x − 4y = 8. Segment CD falls on line 4x + 2y = 8. What is true about segments AB and CD? They are perp
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

They are perpendicular because they have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of −2 and one half.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because x = -2 and half of -2 is 1

when we use CD line and x2 we find 8x+4y=16 when added to 2x -4y=8 would equal 10x+4y = 2 1/2 xy = 16

When we use for AB line we see they are perpendicular 2 1/2 x 2 = 5 -4y = 8 shows y to be -2 and the 1/2 line leaves -2 1/2 and x also is 2 1/2.
