Answer:

C. AB/XY = AC/XZ

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation:

A dilation is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size. The original figure either stretches or shrinks by a certain factor.

In the problem, the dilation is by a factor of 5 and we can see that ABC shrinks to form XYZ.

So, ABC and XYZ are similar triangles which means that the ratio of their corresponding sides will be equal:

AB/XY = AC/XZ = BC/YZ = 5

Answer with explanation:

When ΔABC is dilated by a Scale factor of 5 we will get ΔX Y Z.

Pre-Image = ΔABC

Image = ΔX Y Z

When a triangle is dilated , then the two Triangles that is Original ΔABC and Triangle after dilation ΔX Y Z will be Similar.

⇒Similar triangles has Corresponding sides proportional as well as Corresponding  Angles are congruent.

≡Corresponding congruent Angles are

→∠A=∠X

→∠B=∠Y

→∠C=∠Z

≡Corresponding congruent Sides are

     \frac{AB}{XY}=\frac{AC}{XZ}=\frac{BC}{YZ}

The Proportionality statement which proves two triangles are Similar

Option B

 \frac{AB}{XY}=\frac{AC}{XZ}

ABCD is a parallelogram.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Using SAS they are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

E is the point where the diagonals AC and BD meet.

Side: AB = CD

Angle: ∠ABE = ∠EDC

Side: BE = DE

Hence by SAS theorem the two triangles are congruent.

Answer:

Perhaps, she is interested in finding the area enclosed by this triangular park.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the triangle enclosed by the three points

A(1,1), B(1,4) and C(-3,4) in this question will be given by

|Ax ( By  − Cy)+ Bx(Cy−Ay)+ Cx(Ay− By) |/2  

=|1(4-4)+1(4-1)+-3(1-4)|/2=10/5= 5 sq. units.
