Two triangles are similar if they are the same, except one is bigger and one is smaller. Also, their angles are all the same. A career that uses similar triangles could be a mathematician, or a math teacher. Both of these need to be able to understand simple concepts like similar triangles to teach to their victims.

hoa [83]
Given:
angle of 6 : i'm assuming this is 6 degrees.
distance of 5 miles.

tan(6) = rise/5 mi
rise = 5 mi * tan(6)
rise = 5 mi * 0.10510423526
rise = 0.52552117632

rise = 0.53 miles.

Triangle FGH with vertices F(6,6), G(8,8), and H(8,3): (a) Reflection: in the line x = 5 (b) Translation: (x,y)→ (x - 7, y - 9)
irakobra [83]

(a) The vertices after the reflection in the line x = 5 are F'(4,6) , G'(2,8) , H'(2,3) .

and (b) after translation , the vertices are F''(-1,-3) , G'' (1,-1) , H''(1,-6) .

In the question a triangle FGH with vertices F(6,6) , G(8,8) and H(8,3) is given

Part (a)

the rule for reflection of point (x,y) by the line x = p  is

(x,y) → (2×p - x , y)

reflection by the line x = 5 ,

we get

the vertices as

F'(2×5-6,6) = (4,6)

G'(2×5-8,8) = (2,8)

H'(2×5 - 8 ,3) = (2,3)

Part (b)

the rule of translation is given as (x,y)→ (x - 7, y - 9)

So , the vertices after translation are

F''(6-7 , 6-9) = (-1,-3)

G''(8-7,8-9) = (1,-1)

H''(8-7,3-9) = (1,-6)

Therefore , (a) The vertices after the reflection in the line x = 5 are F'(4,6)

G'(2,8) , H'(2,3) .

and (b) after translation , the vertices are F''(-1,-3) , G'' (1,-1) , H''(1,-6) .
