BC/DC = 8/3.2 = 2.5
AB/BD = 12.5/5 = 2.5
AC/BC = 20/8 = 2.5

Since the results are all 2.5, this means that the triangles are similar triangles. 

The justification you would use is the SSS similarity theorem. 

SSS = side side side

A company plans to build a wheelchair ramp with the following
Liono4ka [1.6K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The height that would be allowed with a ramp 43.5 feet long is ...

  h = (43.5 ft)·sin(4.8°) ≈ 3.64 ft

The proposed height is less than 3.64 ft, so the ramp angle is less than 4.8°.

__

The ramp angle is actually arcsin(3/43.5) ≈ 3.95°, which is less than 4.8°.

Estimate the solution of the system x+y=4 2x-y=6 by sketching a graph of each linear function. Then solve the system algebraical
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

(10/3, 2/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

You may find it easier to write these two equations x+y=4 2x-y=6 in a column:

x+y=4

2x-y=6

Adding these together will eliminate y:

3x = 10.  Then x = 10/3.

Substituting 10/3 for x in the first equation results in:

10/3 + y = 4

Clear fractions by multiplying all three terms by 3:

10 + 3y = 12

Then 3y = 2, and y = 2/3.

The solution is (10/3, 2/3)
