<span>MNO is similar to GHK by AA Similarity Postulate
Let's start by listing each triangle and the measurements of all three angles. For each triangle, we've been given the measurements of 2 of the angles and the 3 angle will simply be 180 minus the other 2 angles. I assume you can do the subtraction, so I'll simply list each triangle with all three angle measurements.
NMO: 79, 22, 79
GHK: 79, 79, 22
PQR: 20, 79, 81
DEF: 82, 22, 76
And the triangles NMO and GHK are similar to each other since they have the same angles. The order really doesn't matter since it's OK for similar triangles to be rotated or reflected. The key thing to remember in a triangle is that if you've been told what 2 of the angles are, you also know what the 3rd angle is since the sum of the angles of a triangle will always be 180.
So the answer is:

Answer:
102.8/4=25.7
I got it because I used a calculator
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the bigger rectangle =(18×8)cm
2
=144cm
2
Area of the smaller rectangle =((30−18)×(8−6))=(12×6)cm
2
=72cm
2
∴ Total area = area of smaller rectangle + area of bigger rectangle =(72+144)cm
2
=216cm

Problem: A bus company took a tour bus on the ferry when there were 30 people aboard. The ferry charged the bus company $180. The following week, the bus had 50 people on board and the ferry charged them $220. How much is the "base rate" for the empty bus? How much does each person cost? Show this using y = mx + b form.
Solution:
Let x = the number of people on the bus
Let y = the total cost for the bus with its passengers to use the ferry.
Then, when there are 30 people on the bus (x = 30), the cost was $180 (y = 180). This means the point (x, y) = (30, 180).
Also, when there were 50 people on the bus, the cost was $220. So that is the point (50, 220).
You see - we have two points and so we can write the equation of a line that goes through those points. The first thing we have to do is find the slope.
The slope of the line joining two points is the rise divided by the run. That means
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
So we put in the values of (30, 180) and (50, 220):
m = (220 - 180) / (50 - 30)
m = 40 / 20
m = 2.
The slope is 2. Now we can write it in the form y = mx + b, using 2 for m:
y = 2x + b.
This equation connects both points, so that means it goes through those points. We want to know "b" next, so we can now substitute in either point for the x and the y. I will substitute in x = 50 and y = 220:
220 = 2(50) + b
220 = 100 + b
b + 100 = 220
b = 120.
Now I know the b and the m, so I can finally write the full y=mx + b form of the equation:
y = 2x + 120.
For the other questions, I can look at the equation I got. The y-intercept (b value) is $120. That means that we are adding $120 on to the price all the time. That's the price for the empty bus. The 2x means to multiply the number of people by two and add this to the $120. So each person is $2.
Here's an example: if you had just 10 people on the bus, you'd pay $120 for the empty bus and $2 for each person. That's $20 for the people and $120 for the bus. That total is $140. Let's see if (10, 140) works in the equation we got:
y = 2x + 120
140 ?=? 2(10) + 120
140 ?=? 20 + 120
yes. 140 = 140. It does work.
Now you try it with your question.
