Find the probability that a point is chosen randomly inside the rectangle is in each given shape...

Mathematics
1 answer:
Arlecino [84]2 years ago
6 0

By taking the quotients between the areas, we see that:

  • a) P = 0.275
  • b) P = 0.85

<h3>How to find the probabilities?</h3>

First we need to find the areas of the 3 shapes.

For the triangle, the area is:

T = 3*5/2 = 7.5

For the blue square, the area is:

S = 3*3 = 9

For the rectangle, the area is:

R = 10*6 = 60

Now, what is the probability that a random point lies on the triangle or in the square?

It is equal to the quotient between the areas of the two shapes and the total area of the rectangle, this is:

P= (7.5 + 9)/60 = 0.275

b) The area of the rectangle that is not the square is:

A = 60 - 9 = 51

Then the probability of not landing on the square is:

P' = 51/60 = 0.85

In the figure, AB║CD and ∠EIA is congruent to ∠GJB Complete the following statements to prove that ∠IKL is congruent to ∠DLH.
REY [17]

Here it is given that AB || CD

< EIA = <GJB

Now

∠EIA ≅ ∠IKC and ∠GJB is ≅ ∠ JLD (Corresponding angles)

∠EIA  ≅ ∠GJB then ∠IKC ≅ ∠ JLD (Substitution Property of Congruency)

∠IKL + ∠IKC 180° and ∠DLH +  ∠JLD =180° (Linear Pair Theorem)

So

m∠IKL + m∠IKC = 180°       ....(1)

But ∠IKC  ≅ ∠JLD

m∠IKC = m∠JLD (SUBTRACTION PROPERTY OF CONGRUENCY)

So we have

m∠IKL + m∠JLD = 180°

∠IKL and ∠JLD are supplementary angles.

But ∠DLH and ∠JLD are supplementary angles.

∠IKL ≅ ∠DLH (CONGRUENT SUPPLEMENTS THEOREM)
