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

Construct the 95% confidence interval for the population mean using the appropriate distributions. a. A random sample of 50 peop
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer: 95% confidence interval would be (26.01,29.39).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n = 50

Mean = 27.7

Standard deviation = 6.12

We need to construct 95% confidence interval for the population.

so, z = 1.96

So, it becomes,

\bar{x}\pm z\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=27.7\pm 1.96\times \dfrac{6.12}{\sqrt{50}}\\\\=27.7 \pm 1.69\\\\=(27.7-1.69,27.7+1.69)\\\\=(26.01,29.39)

Hence, 95% confidence interval would be (26.01,29.39).
