Answer:
Figures can be proven similar if one, or more, similarity transformations (reflections, translations, rotations, dilations) can be found that map one figure onto another. In our attempt to prove all circles are similar, a translation and a scale factor (from a dilation) will be found to map one circle onto another.
Step-by-step explanation:
x = the length of one piece
y = the length of the other piece
the total length is 100 cm this means
x + y = 100
one piece is 16 inches longer than the other
first we need to convert inches to cm:
1 in = 2.54 cm
16 in = 2.54*16 = 40.64
now we can write
x = y + 40.64
by solving the system of equations
x + y = 100
x = y + 40.64
we find
x = 70.32 cm
y = 29.68 cm
the lengths of the two pieces are 70.32 cm and 29.68 cm.
Measure of x is 74 degrees
Answer:
165
Step-by-step explanation:
Dana’s waking rate in miles per hour is 3 mph.
I did 3/4 x 4 = 3 because she walked 1/4 a mile and I needed to figure out the miles per one whole hour.
I hope this made sense and helped you.
