Understand Given kite ABCD and isosceles trapezoid WXYZ, complete a two-​column proof to show that ... 9. △ADW ≅ △CDZ. 9. SAS. 9. Apply In Bhutanese architecture, the faces of buildings are trapezoids. If the row of decorative brick shown is 28.5 feet wide, what is the width of the base of the building? 25 ft. 16 ft. 16 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

the mistake in the pattern is that :

b. the decimal point was moved one too many place values each time

the correct pattern could be made by :

b. moving the decimal point to the right the same numbers of place values as the exponents

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
