The relationship between Traingle XYZ and ACB is that they are similar triangles. tanX = tanA = 5 over 2 and 5 tenths, where

  • AC = 2 x  XY
  • CB = 2 x  YZ

<h3>What is the dilation about?</h3>

Triangle XYZ was dilated by a scale factor of 2 to create triangle ACB, hence XYZ and ACB are similar triangles.

Angles Y and C are said to measure 90 degrees, and angles A and X are known to be congruent. Thus:

tanX = tanA = 5 over 2 and 5 tenths

AC = 2 x  XY

CB = 2 x  YZ

Another way to solve for it is by:

Note that Dilation of the triangle ΔXYZ was by a factor of "2".

Since m∠Y = m∠C = 90º   - given

ΔXYZ and ΔACB are said to be right triangles.

Since ∠X ≅ ∠A   - given

Then ∠X and ∠Z are  said to becomplementary angles

Since m∠Z = 90° - m∠X   -- given

Then ∠A and ∠B are said to be complementary angles

Since m∠B = 90° - m∠A  --- given

Then, ∠Z ≅ ∠B

Therefore ΔXYZ ∼ ΔACB are  similar triangles because it has its corresponding sides to be proportional and its corresponding angles to be congruent.

Note:

sin ∠X = 5/5.59

sin ∠X = YZ/XY

YZ = 5  seen in ΔXYZ

XZ = 5.59 seen in hypotenuse of ΔXYZ

Then one need to Calculate the length of one aspect of XY:

XY = √((5.59)2 - 52)

= 2.4996

Note CB/YZ = 2

CD = 2*YZ = 2 x 5

= 10

AC/XY = 2

AC = 2* XY

= 2 x 2.4996

= 4.999

insens350 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2(1 + W) = P\\Divide -both-sides-of-the-equation-by ; 2\\\frac{ 2(1 + W) }{2} = \frac{P}{2} \\1+ W = P/2\\W = \frac{P}{2} -1\\\\(b .)  2y = 10x + 6\\Re -write -in -slope-intercept-form : y= mx+b\\\frac{2y}{2} =\frac{10x}{2} +\frac{6}{2} \\y = 5x + 3\\Gradient = 5

The area of a right triangle is 210 square inches. The height of the right triangle is 35 inches.
Semmy [17]

Answer:

37 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of ∆ = ½ height x base

210 = ½ x 35 x base

12 = base

Using Pythagoras theorem,

=> hypotenuse = √height² + base²

=> hypotenuse = √35² + 12² = 37
