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}

Let u be an angle in the 4th quadrant with cos u=8/9<br><br> Then sin u=
lutik1710 [3]
To solve for the last side of the triangle, use the Pythagorean Theorem:
(8)^2 + x^2 = (9)^2
x = sqrt of 17
However, this is a NEGATIVE sqrt 17 because the terminal side is in quadrant 4, meaning that this side is under the X-axis and therefore negative.
Now that you know the side opposite of u in the triangle, do opposite/hypotenuse.
sin u = -(sqrt 17)/9

What is the length of segment GH? On a coordinate plane, line G H has points (0, negative 3), (8, 1). StartRoot 48 EndRoot units
Mumz [18]

Answer:

StartRoot 80 EndRoot

Step-by-step explanation:

|GH|² = (8 - 0)² + (1 - (-3))²

|GH|² = 64 + 16

|GH|² = 80

GH = sqrt(80)

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

  • sin(20) sin(40) cos(40) cos(20)
  • [sin(20)*cos(20)]*[sin(40)*cos(40)]
  • [sin(2*20)/2]*[sin(2*40)/2]
  • [sin(40)*sin(80)]/2
