The woods behind Tom's house were 8 miles wide and 6miles long. What is the area of the woods? a) 28 miles
b) 48 miles
c) 86 miles
d) 42 miles

b) 48 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

area of a rectangle is width times height

6 times 8 is 48

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6

dc=6 square root of 3 and ac is 12 square root 3

c and d

step-by-step explanation:

square root of 3/2 = 18/c

cross multiply to get 18*2=√3*c

36/√3 * √3/√3 = c

c= 36*√3/3

c=12√3
