Georgetown and franklin are 9.7 in. apart on a map that has a scale of 1.1 in : 15 mi. how far apart are the real cities?

Since 1.1 inches on the map represents 15 miles in the real world,

9.7 inches on the map represents 15 * 9.7/1.1 = 132.27 miles in the real world.

The cities are 132.27 miles apart.

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
