Andy wants to find the distance d across a river. he located points as shown in the figure, then use similar triangles to find that d = 223.5 feet. how can you tell without calculating that he must be wrong? tell what you think he did wrong and correct his error. round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary. andy must have used the wrong . the distance d is actually feet.

(-1,-0.5)

step-by-step explanation:

m∠abd = m∠dbc

step-by-step explanation:

given : ab bisects ∠dbc

as we know that bisection means ab divides   ∠dbc   in two equal angles named as   ∠dba and   ∠abc

so, m∠abd = m∠dbc  

because ab bisects ∠dbc.

hence , the first statement m∠abd = m∠dbc is true.

2 equivalent expressions to represent the area of a rectangle and the top is n-3 and the side is 2

area of the rectangle = length * width

given length = n - 3

width = 2

replace it in the area

so area of the rectangle = (n-3) *2

= 2(n-3)

one of the expression is 2(n-3)

to get another expression we distribute 2 inside the parenthesis

2(n-3) is 2n - 6

so another expression is 2n - 6

two equivalent expression are

2(n - 3)   , 2n - 6

it would be 0.18 because when the other choices are converted they equal those two numbers.   hope this !
