Answer:

x = 0.6623

y = 8

Image is attached for refernce of my solution

Step-by-step explanation:

In Δ DEF

By applying pythagoras theoram,

DE = $\sqrt{EF^{2} - DF^{2} }$

= $\sqrt{17^{2} - 15^{2} } = \sqrt{289 - 225} = \sqrt{64} =8$

∴ DE = 8

In Δ ABC

BC = y = 12 sin 30° = 6

AC = $\sqrt{3}$ + DE + x = $\sqrt{3}$ + 8 + x = 12 cos 30°

⇒ 9.73 + x = 10.39

A triangle with vertices at A(0, 0), B(0, 4), and C(6, 0) is dilated to yield a triangle with vertices at A′(0, 0), B′(0, 10), a

sineoko [7]

ANSWER

The scale factor is
$2.5$

EXPLANATION

The given triangle has vertices,

$A(0,0),B(0,4),\:and\:C(6, 0)$ .

The vertices of the image triangle is,

$A'(0,0),B'(0,10),\:and\:C'(15, 0)$ .

The scale factor is given by

$k = \frac{image \: length}{object \: length}$

So we can use any of the corresponding sides to determine the scale factor,

$k = \frac{|A'B'|}{ |AB|}$

$k = \frac{ |10 - 0| }{ |4 - 0|}$

$k = \frac{ |10| }{ |4 |} = \frac{10}{4} = 2.5$

Or

$k = \frac{|A'C'|}{ |AC|}$

$k = \frac{ |15 - 0| }{ |6 - 0|}$

$k = \frac{ |15| }{ |6|} = \frac{15}{6} = 2.5$

Or

$k=\frac{|B'C'|}{|BC|}$

$k = \frac{\sqrt{(15 - 0)^2+(0-10)^2 }}{\sqrt{(6 - 0)^2+(0-4)^2}}$

$k = \frac{ 5\sqrt{13}}{2\sqrt{13}} = \frac{5}{2} = 2.5$

The correct answer is C
