Which list orders the number from least to greatest​
sineoko [7]

Answer:

Option C

-5, -2, 1, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

to get the list that orders the numbers from the least to the greatest, we need to, first of all, know the smallest and the largest numbers.

The largest number is easy to guess - it is undoubtedly 3.

However, the smallest number may be a bit tricky because we are dealing with negative numbers. When dealing with negative numbers, the numbers with greater magnitudes are actually smaller. This means that -5 is less than -3, which is less than -2, and so on.

Coming back to our question, we can now order the numbers as -5, -2, 1, 3 which is option C

Kryger [21]

Answer:

1)

Given the triangle RST with Coordinates  R(2,1), S(2, -2) and T(-1 , -2).

A dilation is a transformation which produces an image that is the same shape as original one, but is different size.  

Since, the scale factor \frac{5}{3} is greater than 1, the image is enlargement or a stretch.  

Now, draw the dilation image of the triangle RST with center (2,-2) and scale factor \frac{5}{3}

Since, the center of dilation at S(2,-2) is not at the origin, so the point S and its image S{}' are same.

Now, the distances from the center of the dilation at point S to the other points R and T.  

The dilation image will be\frac{5}{3} of each of these distances,

SR=3, so S{}'R{}'=5 ;


ST=3, so S{}'T{}'=5  

Now, draw the image of RST i.e R'S'T'

Since, RT=3\sqrt{2} [By using hypotenuse of right angle triangle] and R{}'T{}'=5\sqrt{2}.


2)

(a)

Disagree with the given statement.

Side Angle Side postulate (SAS) states that:

If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle then these two triangles are congruent.

Given: B is the midpoint of \overline{AC} i.e \overline{AB}\cong \overline{BC}

In the triangle ABD and triangle CBD, we have

\overline{AB}\cong \overline{BC}   (SIDE)            [Given]

\overline{BD}\cong \overline{BD}   (SIDE)            [Reflexive post]

Since, there is no included angle in these triangles.

∴ \Delta ABD is not congruent to \Delta CBD .

Therefore, these triangles does not follow the SAS congruence postulates.

(b)

SSS(SIDE-SIDE-SIDE) states that if three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Since it is also given that  \overline{AD}\cong \overline{CD}.

therefore, in the triangle ABD and triangle CBD, we have

\overline{AB}\cong \overline{BC}   (SIDE)            [Given]

\overline{AD}\cong \overline{CD}   (SIDE)           [Given]

\overline{BD}\cong \overline{BD}   (SIDE)            [Reflexive post]

therefore by, SSS postulates \Delta ABD\cong \Delta CBD.

3)

Given that:  \angle1=\angle 3 are vertical angles, as they are formed by intersecting lines.

Therefore

, by the definition of linear pairs

\angle 1 and \angle 2 and \angle 3  and \angle 2 are linear pair.

By linear pair theorem, \angle 1 and \angle 2   are supplementary, \angle 2 and \angle 3  are supplementary.

m\angle1+m\angle 2=180^{\circ}

m\angle2+m\angle 3=180^{\circ}

Equate the above expressions:

m\angle 1+m\angle 2=m\angle 2+m\angle 3

Subtract the angle 2 from both sides in the above expressions

∴m\angle 1=m\angle 3

By Congruent Supplement theorem: If two angles are supplements of the same angle, then the two angles are congruent.


therefore, \angle 1\cong \angle 3.

In triangle ABC, angle bisectors line AD, line BE, and line CF meet at I. If DI = 3, BD = 4, and BI = 5, then compute the area o
Nikitich [7]

The area of triangle ABC is the amount of space on the triangle

The area of the triangle is 54.84 square units

<h3>How to determine the area of triangle ABC</h3>

Start by drawing the triangle (see attachment)

Next, calculate the measure of angle B using the following tangent ratio

\tan(B/2) = \frac 34

This gives

\tan(B/2) = 0.75

Take the arc tan of both sides

B/2 = 36.87

Multiply by 2

B = 73.74

Next, calculate the length of side AD using the following equation

AD = \tan(B) * BD

This gives

AD = \tan(73.74) * 4

AD =13.71

The area of the triangle is then calculated as:

Area = AD * BD

This gives

Area = 13.71 * 4

Area = 54.84

Hence, the area of the triangle is 54.84 square units
