<u>Yes </u><u>!</u><u> </u><u>they </u><u>ofcourse</u><u> </u><u>are </u><u>similar</u><u> </u><u>and </u><u>here </u><u>goes </u><u>the </u><u>explanation</u><u> </u><u>behind </u><u>that </u><u>~</u>

two triangles are said to be similar by SAS postulate in case the ratios of their side lengths comes out to be equal along with one angle lying in between the side lengths

<u>in </u><u>this </u><u>case </u><u>,</u>

\frac{AB}{BD}  \: should \: be \: equal \: to \:  \frac{EB}{BC} \\

so , let's check if the ratio is equal or no ~

\implies\frac{AB}{BD}  =  \frac{27}{18}  =  \frac{3}{2}  \\  \\ \implies \:  \frac{EB}{BC}  =  \frac{36}{24}  =  \frac{3}{2}  \\  \\ \therefore \:  \frac{AB}{BD}  =  \frac{EB}{BC}

Also ,

∠ABE = ∠CBD

<u>since </u><u>they </u><u>both </u><u>are </u><u>vertically</u><u> </u><u>opposite </u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>i.</u><u>e</u><u>.</u><u> </u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>angles </u><u>with </u><u>the </u><u>same </u><u>vertex </u><u>B </u><u>.</u>

thus the triangles are similar by SAS postulate !

hence , <u>Option </u><u>A</u> is correct !

hope helpful ~

Lionfish are considered an invasive species, with an annual growth rate of 67%. A scientist estimates there are 8,000 lionfish i
natita [175]

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>There would be 173,535 lionfish after 6 years.</em>

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

<em>Since lionfish are considered an invasive species, with an annual growth rate of 67%, ya scientist estimates there are 8,000 lionfish in a certain bay after the first year, A) to write the explicit equation for f (n) that represents the number of lionfish in the bay after n years; B) determine how many lionfish will be in the bay after 6 years; and C) if scientists remove 1,200 fish per year from the bay after the first year, determine what is the recursive equation for f (n); the following calculations must be performed:</em>

<em></em>

<em>A)</em>

<em>8000 x 1.67 ^ n = f  </em>

<em>B)</em>

<em>8000 x 1.67 ^ 6 = X</em>

<em>8000 x 21.691961596369 = X</em>

<em>173,535.692770952 = X  </em>

<em>C)</em>

<em>(8000 - 1200 x 1 ^ n) x 1.67 ^ n = f</em>

<em>Therefore, there would be 173,535 lionfish after 6 years.</em>

Which angles are correspoding angles
Luden [163]

Answer:

When two lines are crossed by another line (which is called the Transversal), the angles in matching corners are called corresponding angles. Example: a and e are corresponding angles. When the two lines are parallel Corresponding Angles are equal.
