By SSS (Side, side, side) congruency;

⇒ ΔA B C ≅ ΔX Y Z .

Given that;

The vertices of ΔA B C are;

A (3, -1) , B (3, 7) and C (7, 7)

The vertices of  ΔX Y Z  are;

X (-7, 0), Y (-7, 4), Z (1, 4)

We have to prove that ΔA B C ≅ ΔX Y Z .

What is congruency in triangle?

If all three corresponding sides are equal and all the three corresponding angles are equal in measure, then Two triangles are said to be congruent.

Now,

The vertices of ΔA B C are;

A (3, -1) , B (3, 7) and C (7, 7)

The vertices of  ΔX Y Z  are;

X (-7, 0), Y (-7, 4), and Z (1, 4)

To prove ΔA B C ≅ ΔX Y Z we use distance formula and prove all sides are equal.

In ΔA B C;

Distance between A and B;

D_{AB} = \sqrt{(3-3)^2 + (7 -(-1))^2} = \sqrt{64} = 8

Distance between B and C;

D_{BC} = \sqrt{(7-3)^2 + (7 -7)^2} = \sqrt{16} = 4

Distance between C and A;

D_{CA} = \sqrt{(7-3)^2 + (7 -(-1))^2} = \sqrt{80}

In ΔX Y Z;

Distance between X and Y;

D_{XY} = \sqrt{(-7-(-7))^2 + (4 -0)^2} = \sqrt{16} = 4

Distance between Y and Z;

D_{YZ} = \sqrt{(-7-1)^2 + (4 -4)^2} = \sqrt{64}= 8

Distance between Z and X;

<h2>D_{ZX} = \sqrt{(1-(-7))^2 + (4 -0)^2} = \sqrt{80}</h2>

Clearly, Distance between sides of  ΔA B C and  ΔX Y Z are;

D_{AB} = D_{YZ} \\\\D_{BC} = D_{XY}\\\\D_{CA} = D_{XZ}

Hence, By SSS congruency;

⇒ ΔA B C ≅ ΔX Y Z .

suppose a farmer encloses a rectangular region of a land next to a river. fencing will be used on 3 sieds, and none is needed al
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Dimensions :

x (the longer side, only one side with fence )   =  90  ft

y ( the shorter side two sides with fence )        =  45  ft

Total fence used   45 * 2  +  90    =  180 ft

A(max)  =  

Step-by-step explanation: If a farmer has 180 ft of fencing to encloses a rectangular area with fence in three sides and the river on one side, the farmer surely wants to have a maximum enclosed area.

Lets call "x" one the longer side  ( only one of the longer side of the rectangle will have fence, the other will be along the river and won´t need fence. "y" will be the shorter side

Then we have:

P = perimeter  =  180  =  2y  +  x        ⇒   y  =  ( 180 - x )  / 2        (1)

And   A (r)   =  x * y

A(x)   =  x  *  ( 180 - x ) /2       ⇒   A(x)   = (180/2) *x   -  x² / 2

Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation :

A´(x)   =  90   -  x    

Then if    A´(x)   =  0   ⇒        90   -  x    =  0     ⇒   x  =  90 ft

and from :       y  =  ( 180 - x )  / 2     ⇒     y  =  90/2

y  =  45  ft

And

A(max)  =  90 * 45    =  4050  ft²
