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

Answer:

We are given an area and three different widths and we need to determine the corresponding length and perimeter.  

The first width that is provided is 4 yards and to get an area of 100 we need to multiply it by 25 yards.  This would mean that our length is 25 yards and our perimeter would be 2(l + w) which is 2(25 + 4) = 58 yards.

The second width that is given is 5 yards and in order to get an area of 100 yards we need to multiply by 20 yards.  This would mean that our length is 20 yards and our perimeter would be 2(l + w) which is 2(20 + 5) = 50 yards.

The final width that is given is 10 yards and in order to get an area of 100 yards we need to multiply by 10.  This would mean that our length is 10 yards and our perimeter would be 2(l + w) which is 2(10 + 10) = 40 yards.

Therefore the field that would require the least amount of fencing (the smallest perimeter) is option C, field #3.

A scuba diver is swimming 15 feet below the water’s surface. The diver swims up slowly at 0.5 feet per second for 4 seconds; and
STatiana [176]
0.5 x 4 = 2 feet / 2 feet in 4 seconds
15 - 2 = 13
New depth: 13 feet

0.4 x 3 = 1.2 feet / 1.2 feet in 3 seconds
13 - 1.2 = 11.8
