In the figure below, triangle ABC is similar to triangle PQR: A right triangle ABC with right angle at B and base BC is drawn. L

ength of AB is 6, length of BC is 8. A similar right triangle; triangle PQR, which is triangle ABC enlarged and reflected across a horizontal line, is drawn near it. The right angle is at Q. Angle A is congruent to angle P and angle C is congruent to angle R. The length of QR is 24. What is the length of side PQ? 18 4 32 6

Answer: PQ = 18 unit.

Explanation: Since, according to question, \triangle ABC\sim\triangle PQR .

Therefore, by the property of similar triangles the ratio of corresponding sides must be equal.

Here, The right angle are at A in \triangle ABC and at Q in \triangle PQR respectively.

Moreover,  \angle A is congruent to \angle P and \angle C is congruent to \angle R.

Therefore, AB, BC and AC are corresponding to sides PQ, QR and PR respectively.

Thus, we can write, \frac{AB}{PQ} =\frac{BC}{QR} =\frac{AC}{PR}

⇒\frac{AB}{PQ} =\frac{BC}{QR}

⇒\frac{6}{PQ} =\frac{8}{24} ( because, here, AB= 6, BC=8 and QR=24)⇒  PQ=18

Answer:

Option 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Minimum value is going to be in the y part of our coordinate, so we can just look there. I went ahead and used a graphing calculator to make things easy.

Starting off with option 2, we can see the minimum is -10. And in option 4 we can see the smallest y value is -6.

Using a graphing calculator (I used desmos), we can graph these other functions and figure out their minimums.

Option 1's y minimum is -7, and Option 3's y minimum is -2.25.

Option 1: -7

Option 2: -10

Option 3: -2.25

Option 4: -6

The questions asks for the <em>smallest</em> minimum value, which in this case is option 2.

Find volume of the foam
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

35 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

127 137

If you divide the foam into 2 rectangular prisms, you will get a rectangular prism with dimensions of 1 * 2 * 7, and another prism with dimensions of 1 * 3 * 7. You find the separate volumes of each, and get 14 ft^3, and 21 ft^3. You add these together to get 35 ft^3
