Answer:

∆STR ~ ∆RTQ

Step-by-step explanation:

For two fugures to be considered similar, it means the corresponding sides are proportional, and as such, the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal.

However, the corresponding angles of two similar figures are the same and equal.

Taking a look at the figure of the triangle given, ∆STR is a right angle triangle, and it is similar to ∆RTQ as the angle formed at <T in ∆RTQ = 90°.

<T in ∆STR = <T in ∆RTQ.

Therefore, the correct similarity statement is ∆STR ~ ∆RTQ.

The last option is correct.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let s be the snowman, g be the girl, and t be the christmas tree

2s+g=24

2t+2ts=132

3t+2g=26

subtract 2 times the first equation from the third one to get

3t-4s=-22

from the second equation we can deduce

2t(1+s)=132

t(1+s)=66

t=66/(1+s)

Substitute:

3(66)/(1+s)-4s=-22

3(66)/(1+s)=4s-22

3(66)=(4s-22)(1+s)

3(66)=-18s+4s^2-22

4s^2-18s-220=0

using the quadratic formula, we get s = 10, s = -5.5.

2(10)+g=24

g=4

2t(1+10)=132

2t=12

t=6

So 2s+t*g= 20+6*4=48

you would get a different solution for the negative s, but since snowmen cannot be negative, 48 is the answe.r

The graph shows the result of a matrix transformation, where the pre-image has dashed lines Which matrix operation is represente

diamong [38]

The matrix operation is the addition subtraction and multiplication involving matrices. The coordinates of the image can be represented as a matrix obtained from the coordinates of the preimage through matrix operations

The best correct option is option D), (the y-coordinate for the point (8, -7) is to be replaced with a 7 to give (7, -7) as follows:

$\left[\begin{array}{rrrr}1&0\\0&-1\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{rrrr}9&7&3&2\\-3&-7&-7&-5\end{array}\right]$

The reason the above matrix value for the matrix operation are correct are as follows:

Known parameters:

From the diagram, we have that the coordinates of the vertices of the preimage are;

(2, -5), (3, -7), (9, -3), and (7, -7)

The coordinates of the vertices of the image are;

(2, 5), (3, 7), (9, 3), and (7, 7)

Required:

The matrix operation for the transformation of the preimage points to the image points

Solution:

The transformation from the coordinates of the vertices of primage to the vertices of image involves the change in the sign from negative to positive, of the y-values of the image, which can be obtained by multiplying by (-1)

Therefore, the required matrix operation is presented as follows:

$\mathbf{\left[\begin{array}{rrrr}1&0\\0&-1\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{rrrr}9&7&3&2\\-3&-7&-7&-5\end{array}\right]} =\left[\begin{array}{rrrr}9&7&3&2\\3&7&7&5\end{array}\right]$
