In "Triangle" ABC, AB = x, BC = y, and CA = 2x. A similarity transformation with a scale factor of 0.5 maps "Triangle" ABC to "T

riangle" MNO, such that vertices M, N, and O correspond to A, B, and C, respectively. If OM = 5, what is AB?
A.AB = 2.5
B.AB = 10
C.AB = 5
D.AB = 1.25
E.AB = 2

Answer:

The correct option is <u>C.) AB = 5</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

the diagram of given triangle is shown in figure-1

M, N and O correspond to A , B and C respectively.

and also given that triangle MNO is 0.5 times of triangle ABC

so, MN =(0.5)AB , NO = (0.5)BC and MO =(0.5)AC

then  

      MO =(0.5)AC

       Put OM = 5

        5 =(0.5)AC

   Divide both the sides by 0.5,

                       \frac{5}{0.5}=AC

                   10 = AC

If AB = x and AC = 2x

                  AC = 2x

                   10 = 2x

                  \frac{10}{2}=x

                    5  = x

since  AB = x the AB = 5

 hence, correct option is <u>C.) AB = 5</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line passing through two points is given by,

\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

13)

\frac{(0 - y)}{(0 - 2)}  =  (\frac{ - 3}{2} )

\frac{ - y}{ - 2}  =  \frac{ - 3}{2}

y =  - 3

option D

14)

\frac{ ( - 3 - y)}{(1 + 5)}  =  \frac{ - 1}{6}

\frac{ - 3 - y}{6}  =  \frac{ - 1}{6}

- 3 - y =  - 1

- y =  - 1 + 3 = 2

y =  - 2

option C

15)

\frac{(y - 4)}{( - 5 + 1)}  =  \frac{1}{4}

\frac{y - 4}{ - 4}  =  \frac{1}{4}

- y + 4 = 1

- y = 1 - 4 =  - 3

y = 3

option B

16)

\frac{(y + 3)}{( - 4 - 3)}  =  \frac{ - 3}{7}

- (y + 3) =  - 3

y = 3 - 3 = 0

option C
