The length of a 1-inch paperclip is about 1.6 x 10−5 miles. It takes about 1.5 x 1010 paperclips linked together to reach the moon. What is the approximate distance to the moon?

Distance from the moon is 2.4 × 10⁵ miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of 1-inch paperclip = miles

Number of paperclips used to reach the moon = 1.5 × 10¹⁰

Total distance from the moon = Number of paper clips used × Length of one clip

= (1.5 × 10¹⁰) × (1.6 × 10⁻5)

= (1.5 × 1.6) (10¹⁰× 10⁻⁵)

= 2.4 × 10⁽¹⁰⁻⁵⁾ miles

= 2.4 × 10⁵ miles

Distance from the moon is 2.4 × 10⁵ miles.

1)is not similar since corresponding sides are not in the same ratio

2)are similar since corresponding sides are in the same ratio and corresponding angles are equal

d. corresponding side lengths in similar triangles are proportional in length.
