Answer:

Not similar

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have scratch paper, its best to label the angles and sides given. You can also rotate the orientation of one of the triangles if that helps visually.

First lets look at the sides.

Notice the common factor between side AB and side XY.

14/7=2

Notice the common factor between side AC and side XZ.

22/11=2

So far so good right? Well, IF these triangles are similar, that means that angle X must correspond to angle A. Since corresponding angles of similar triangles are equal to each other, lets check of angle X is equal to angle A.

Angle X = 29 degrees

Angle A = 28 degrees

28 does not equal 29 degrees. Therefore, the triangles are not similar. If angles X and A were equal, than the triangles would have been similar due to the Side-Angle-Side rule (SAS).

Answer:

To ensure uniformity on an exam

To test whether you can distinguish between the two formats

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form is when a straight line equation is rearranged in the form:

$ax + by = c$

Therefore y=2x+4 in standard form is

$2x - y = - 4$

The slope-intercept form is when a a straight line equation is written in the form:

$y = mx + c$

where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

The given equation is

$y = - \frac{1}{2} x - 5$

This is already in slope-intercept form:

The standard form and slope-intercept forms are just formats.

Your instructor may restrict you to leave your answer in one of these formats maybe for uniformity on a test.

You may also decide to rewrite an equation in slope-intercept form, so that you can easily identify the slope and y-intercept easily for graphing purpose.

I am so confused how am I supposed to do this

solniwko [45]

Rise over run, -2/4 or -1/2 so the slope is -1/2 or -0.5. (View picture) And the slope is negative because you are going down wards \ and the "rise" is going down.

Please help me!!!!! Urgent!

The slope is 1/2.
You can figure it out using the rise over run method
