I need the equation for one less than wide a number

Kayla wants to find the width, ab, of a river. she walks along the edge of the river 65 ft and marks point c. then she walks 25 ft further and marks point d. she turns 90° and walks until her location, point a, and point c are collinear. she marks point e at this location, as shown. (a) can kayla conclude that δ and δ are similar? why or why not? (b) suppose de = 15 ft. what can kayla conclude about the width of the river?

Cole says the distance between points (-5,0) and (0,-5)is 5 units. is he correct? explain why or why not.

Abusiness plan is centered around a circular area of distribution. the plan calls for the radius of the distribution to increase 50 miles per year. the investors have asked that the plan include a reference to the area of distribution based on the number of years in business. these functions model this plan: radius in y years: r(y) = 50y total area: a(r) = πr2; r in miles what is a(r( the total area in y years? a(r(y)) = 50πy2 a(r(y)) = 2,500πy2 a(r(y)) = 50πr2 a(r(y)) = 2,500πr2
