For similar triangles, the side lengths are proportional. So, you can write a proportion relating the two pairs of vertical and

horizontal side lengths. For the line y = 2x, a triangle can be drawn 2 units up and 1 unit right from the origin.
Write a proportion relating the side lengths of the triangle to any other triangle that has the line as a hypotenuse, a horizontal length of x units, and a vertical length of y units.

Answer:

\frac{y}{2}=\frac{x}{1}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

The corresponding vertical sides are y and 2

The corresponding horizontal lines are x and 1

so

The proportion is equal to

\frac{y}{2}=\frac{x}{1}

Write an equation of a line in point-slope, slope-intercept, and standard form that has
Inga [223]

Answer:

(a) y + 4x - 14 = 0

(b) y = -4x + 14

(c) y + 4x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the equation of line in point - slope form is given as :

y-y_{1}  = m(x-x_{1} )

where m is the slope

Given from the question :

m = - 4

x_{1} = 2

y_{1} = 6

Substituting into the formula , we have :

y - 6 = - 4(x - 2)

y - 6 = -4x + 8

y + 4x - 6 - 8 = 0

y + 4x - 14 = 0

Therefore :

(a) the equation of the line in point - slope form is y + 4x - 14 = 0

(b) to write it in slope - intercept form , we will make y the subject of the formula , which will give : y = -4x + 14

(c) the equation of line in standard form is ; y + 4x = 14

Can anybody help me with this question please ?

Answer:

x = 8.75, y = 8.125

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles are similar thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{8}{5} = \frac{14}{x} ( cross-  multiply )

8x = 70 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 8.75

And

\frac{8}{5} = \frac{13}{y} ( cross- multiply )

8y = 65 ( divide both sides by 8 )

y = 8.125
