Answer:

The answer in the procedure

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Figures can be proven similar if one, or more, similarity transformations (reflections, translations, rotations, dilation's) can be found that map one figure onto another.  

In this problem to prove circle 1 and circle 2 are similar, a translation and a scale factor (from a dilation) will be found to map one circle onto another.

we have that

Circle 1 is centered at (5,8) and has a radius of 8 centimeters

Circle 2 is centered at (1,-2) and has a radius of 4 centimeters

step 1

Move the center of the circle 1 onto the center of the circle 2

the transformation has the following rule

(x,y)--------> (x-4,y-10)

so

(5,8)------> (5-4,8-10)-----> (1,-2)

center circle 1 is now equal to center circle 2  

The circles are now concentric (they have the same center)

step 2

A dilation is needed to decrease the size of circle 1 to coincide with circle 2

scale factor=radius circle 2/radius circle 1-----> 4/8----> 0.5

radius circle 1 will be=8*scale factor-----> 8*0.5-----> 4 cm

radius circle 1 is now equal to radius circle 2  

therefore

A translation, followed by a dilation will map one circle onto the other, thus proving that the circles are similar

Aneli [31]
Here you would use right triangle trig (SOH CAH TOA)
So first draw a right triangle. Imagine youre standing at the angle opposite the right angle which is the one on the ground.This angle is the 41°. Now Imagine the balloon is as the angle above the right triangle. Well since the balloon is 1503 m from his location this would be the hypotenuse. SInce we are trying to find the height (x) we would use sine since
sine = opposite/hypotenuse . Now lets solve make sure calculator is in degree mode:

sin41 = x/1503      multiply both sides by 1503 to cancel it out
1503sin41 = x        plug into calculator
x = 986.057 ft
The balloon is 986.057 feet above the ground.

Kyle and Taylor ran laps after school to train for the baseball team. The ratio of the number of laps Kyle ran to the number of
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

9 laps.

Step-by-step explanation:

-Let x be the number of laps Taylor runs.

-Given that the ratio of Kyle to Taylor laps is 2:3, we express the actual laps in meters to solve for x as follows:

\frac{Kyle}{Taylor}=\frac{2}{3}\\\\\therefore \frac{2}{3}=\frac{6}{x}\\\\2x=18\\\\x=9

Hence, Taylor runs 9 laps.
