Answer:

The  statements which are correct are:

  • It is enough to show that two pairs of corresponding angles are congruent.
  • It is enough to show that all three pairs of corresponding sides are in the same ratio.

Step-by-step explanation:

If two triangles have two pairs of sides in the same ratio and the included angles are also equal, then the triangles are similar.

Two triangles are similar if they have:


  • all their angles equal
  • corresponding sides are in the same ratio

There are three ways to find if two triangles are similar: AA, SAS and SSS:

1)

It is enough to show that two pairs of corresponding angles are congruent.

because if two triangles will be congruent than automatically the third will also be congruent and  hence we can apply AA similarity.

2)

It is enough to show that all three pairs of corresponding sides are in the same ratio.

Hence, it will imply SSS similarity.

Hence, these two conditions would be enough to show that the triangles are similar.

What is the slope in the table below
eduard

Answer:

<h2>The table does not show a linear function</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{The formula of a slope:}\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\text{From the table we have:}\\\\(5,\ 24),\ (10,\ 21),\ (15,\ 17),\ (20,\ 13)\\\\\text{Check}\\\\\dfrac{21-24}{10-5}=\dfrac{-3}{5}=-\dfrac{3}{5}\\\\\dfrac{17-21}{15-10}=\dfrac{-4}{5}=-\dfrac{4}{5}\\\\-\dfrac{3}{5}\neq-\dfrac{4}{5}

Examine the following graph, where P(x) is the preimage and I(x) is the image after a transformation.
Arisa [49]

Answer:

the 4th answer I(x) = P(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

the first 2 options are out, because just adding values to the functional result values changes the y value, and the curve is pushed up or down. but not to the side.

just imagine

I(x) = P(x-4) means that the function value of previously at x-4 happens now at x. 4 units "later" (or more to the right).

"x+4" would make the functional value at previously x+4 happen now at x. so, everything would shift to the left (happen "earlier").

therefore, the 4th answer option is correct.
