Abedroom is 5.2 meters wide. find its width in feet. (1 meter is about 3.28 feet.)

17.056

Step-by-step explanation:

i found this out by multiplying both factors in this case 5.2 and 3.28

let m = monomial

let t = trinomial

so, m times t = t.

monomial times a trinomial = another trinomial.

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
