1.5.PS-21 Challenge Yossi used to have a square garage with 368 ft? of floor space. He recently built an addition to it. The garage is still a square, but now it has 50% more floor space. What was the length of one side of the garage originally? What is the length of one side of the garage now? What was the percent increase in the length of one side? One side of the garage was originally ft long

The previous length was 368 ft

the final length is 552 ft.

its a square so the distance between any two sides is the same as the length

The floor space increased by50% .

If 100%=368ft

then 50%=?

50. ×368ft

100

184 ft is the length increase in floor space

it is added to the original 368ft to get 552ft

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.
