According to SAS postulate of similarity, two triangles are called similar if two sides in one triangle are in the same proportion to the corresponding sides in the other, and the included angle are congruent.

In triangles, QNR and MNP,

$\frac{QN}{MN} = \frac{QM+MN}{MN} = \frac{10+8}{8} = \frac{18}{8} = \frac{9}{4}$

$\frac{NR}{NP} = \frac{NP+NR}{NP} = \frac{10+8}{8} = \frac{18}{8} = \frac{9}{4}$

$\implies \frac{QN}{MN} = \frac{NR}{NP}$

Also,

$\angle QNR\cong \angle MNP$ (Reflexive)

Thus, By SAS similarity postulate,

$\triangle QNR\sim\triangle MNP$

⇒ Option first is correct.

5. You are making your Halloween costume this year. You have 6 yards of fabric and the pattern says that you need to cut it in t

REY [17]

Answer:

The shorter side piece of fabric = x = 8 feet

The longer side piece of fabrics = (x + 2) = 10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Total yards of fabrics = 6 yards

you need to cut it in two pieces where one is two feet longer than the other.

First piece= x feet

Second piece= x+2 feet

Convert 6 yards to feet

6 yards = 18 feet

First piece + second piece = total piece of fabrics

x + (x+2) = 18

x + x + 2 = 18

2x + 2 = 18

2x = 18 - 2

2x = 16

Divide both sides by 2

x = 16 / 2

x = 8 feet

8 feet = 2.66667 yards

x + 2

= 8 + 2

= 10 feet

10 feet = 3.33333 yards

The shorter side piece of fabric = x = 8 feet

The longer side piece of fabrics = (x + 2) = 10 feet
