5 8 of a rectangle is coloured red. Damien cuts this red part into a number of pieces so that each piece is 1 16 of the whole rectangle. If the area of the rectangle is 48 square centimetres, what is the area of each piece?

3 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

5/8 of rectangle = red

Let area of rectangle = x

Each piece = 1/16 of whole rectangle

Area of whole rectangle = 48 cm²

Area of each piece = 1/16 of 48

1/16 * 48cm²

= 48 / 16 cm²

= 3 cm²

Hence area of each piece = 3cm²

-4

step-by-step explanation:

∠lno ≅ ∠lnm

∠oln ≅ ∠mln

step-by-step explanation:

given   that triangle lno is congruent to triangle lnm.

we have to fill up the blanks in the given question.

according to above order of congruency   kept in mind we can say that

∠lno ≅ ∠lnm

∠oln ≅ ∠mln

ln ≅ ln due to common in both.

hence, by sas congruency,

the side angle side rule   states that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to another triangle, then these two triangles are congruent.
