Find the length of x. Assume the triangles are similar.

Mathematics
1 answer:
gayaneshka [121]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{2.8}{x} = \frac{2.4}{4.8} ( cross- multiply )

2.4x = 13.44 ( divide both sides by 2.4 )

x = 5.6 → C

How do I construct bisectors, angles, & segments?
Doss [256]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

These come directly from my textbook, so I'm not sure if your teacher will accept this kind of work.

1. Angle construction:

Given an angle. construct an angle congruent to the given angle.

Given: Angle ABC

Construct: An angle congruent to angle ABC

Procedure:

1. Draw a ray. Label it ray RY.

2. Using B as center and any radius, draw an arc that intersects ray BA and ray BC. Label the points of intersection D and E, respectively.

3. Using R as center and the same radius as in Step 2, draw an arc intersecting ray RY. Label the arc XS, with S being the point where the arc intersects ray RY.

4. Using S as center and a radius equal to DE, draw an arc that intersects arc XS at a point Q.

5. Draw ray RQ.

Justification (for congruence): If you draw line segment DE and line segment QS, triangle DBE is congruent to triangle QRS (SSS postulate) Then angle QRS is congruent to angle ABC.

You can probably also Google videos if it's hard to imagine this. Sorry, construction is super hard to describe.

We know that
scale factor=1 in/7.5 ft
scale factor=measurements   on the blueprint/measurements <span> in the actual
</span>measurements on the blueprint=[measurements  in the actual*scale factor]
so

for 18 ft
measurements on the blueprint=[18 ft*(1 in/7.5 ft)-----> 2.4 in

for 16 ft
measurements on the blueprint=[16 ft*(1 in/7.5 ft)-----> 2.1 in

the dimensions on the blueprint are
2.4 in x 2.1 in

The surface area of a pyramid is 327 square meters. what is the surface area of a similar pyramid that is smaller by a scale fac
N76 [4]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{144.33 m}^{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor (C) is the ratio of corresponding parts of the two pyramids.  

The ratio of the areas is the square of the scale factor.

\dfrac{A_{1}}{ A_{2}} = C^{2}\\\\\dfrac{\text{327 m}^{2}}{A_{2}} = \left (\dfrac{1}{\frac{2}{3}}\right)^{2}\\\\ \dfrac{\text{327 m}^{2}}{A_{2}}= \dfrac{9}{4}\\\\\text{1308 m}^{2}= 9A_{2}\\\\A_{2} = \text{145.33 m}^{2}\\\text{The surface area of the smaller pyramid is \boxed{\text{145.33 m}^{2}}}
