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.

If u={a,b,c,d}and p={b,d,e}find p(bar at the top)
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

{a , c}

Step-by-step explanation:

first find u intersection p

n(U n P ) = {a , b , c , d} n {b , d , e}

={d , b}

intersection means element or values which lies in both the sets

now to find p complement

note : p( bar at the top ) is read as p complement

p complement = n(U) - n(U n P)

={a , b , c , d} - {d , b}

={a , c}

n(U) -n(U n P) means the elements which is only in n(U ) but not in n(U n P)

Use Newton's method with initial approximation x1 = −2 to find x2, the second approximation to the root of the equation x3 + x +
nevsk [136]

Answer:

x_2 \approx -1.769

Step-by-step explanation:

Let f(x)=x^3+x+7

So f'(x)=3x^2+1

x_{n+1}=x_n-\frac{f(x_n)}{f'(x_n)}

Let x_1=-2

We are going to find x_2

So we are evaluating -2-\frac{f(-2)}{f'(-2)}

First step find f(-2)

Second step find f'(-2)

Third step plug in those values and apply PEMDAS!

f(-2)=(-2)^3+(-2)+7=-8-2+7=-10+7=-3

f'(-2)=3(-2)^2+1=3(4)+1=12+1=13

So

x_2=-2-\frac{-3}{13} \\\\ x_2=\frac{-26+3}{13} \\\\ x_2=\frac{-23}{13} \\\\ x_2 \approx -1.769

A large concrete mixing machine can mix a certain amount of concede in 12 hours, while a smallet one can mix
Andrews [41]

Answer:

[(1/12)(5/5) + (1/20)(3/3)](x hours) = 1

(5/60 + 3/60)x = 1

(8/60)x = 1 we can reduce 8/60 by dividing out a 4

(2/15)x = 1 x both sides by 15/2

x = 15/2

x = 7 1/2 or 7.5 hours
