Let \mathbf V be the m\times3 matrix whose columns are \mathbf v_1,\mathbf v_2,\mathbf v_3, and let \mathbf c be the vector whose components are the constants c_1,c_2,c_3. Now consider the matrix equation

\mathbf V\mathbf c=\mathbf 0


Multiplying both sides by \mathbf V^\top, we have

\mathbf V^\top(\mathbf V\mathbf c)=(\mathbf V^\top\mathbf V)\mathbf c=\mathbf 0

More explicitly, we're writing

\mathbf V=\begin{bmatrix}\mathbf v_1&\mathbf v_2&\mathbf v_3\end{bmatrix}

Multiply both sides by \mathbf V^\top and the left hand side can be written as

\mathbf V^\top\mathbf V=\begin{bmatrix}{\mathbf v_1}^\top\\{\mathbf v_2}^\top\\{\mathbf v_3}^\top\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}\mathbf v_1&\mathbf v_2&\mathbf v_3\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}{\mathbf v_1}^\top\mathbf v_1&{\mathbf v_1}^\top\mathbf v_2&{\mathbf v_1}^\top\mathbf v_3\\{\mathbf v_2}^\top\mathbf v_1&{\mathbf v_2}^\top\mathbf v_2&{\mathbf v_2}^\top\mathbf v_3\\{\mathbf v_3}^\top\mathbf v_1&{\mathbf v_3}^\top\mathbf v_2&{\mathbf v_3}^\top\mathbf v_3\end{bmatrix}

We're told that {\mathbf v_i}^\top\mathbf v_j=0 whenever i\neq j, so we're left with

\mathbf V^\top\mathbf V=\begin{bmatrix}\|\mathbf v_1\|^2&0&0\\0&\|\mathbf v_2\|^2&0\\0&0&\|\mathbf v_3\|^2\end{bmatrix}

Each of \mathbf v_1,\mathbf v_2,\mathbf v_3 are nonzero, which means their norms are nonzero, which necessarily implies that \mathbf c=0, and so the vectors \mathbf v_1,\mathbf v_2,\mathbf v_3 must necessarily be linearly independent.

Write the perimeter of the triangle as a simplified expression
ioda

Answer: 10y + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the total distance round the figure.

Now, in this case it is going to be

Perimeter = 3y + 5 + 6y + y - 4

= 3y + 6y + y + 5 - 4

= 10y + 1

HELP!!!!!!!!!
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

∠ABC ≅ ∠DEC

∠DEC = ∠GEF

thus:

∠ABC = ∠GEF

∠GFE ≅ ∠DCE

∠DCE = ∠ACB

thus:

∠ACB = ∠GFE

If two of their angles are equal, then the third angle must also be equal, because angles of a triangle always add to make 180°.

thus: ΔABC ∼ ΔGEF by AA similar triangle postulate

I hope this helps
