<span>(a) Triangles ABC and PQR are similar triangles since they both share 2 congruent angles and therefore their 3rd angle is also congruent. So the triangles are similar due to the AAA similarity theorem. (b) The area of triangle PQR is 1 million times larger than the area of triangle ABC. This can be shown since the area of a triangle is 1/2 base times height. You can show that the base of triangle PQR is 1000 times larger than the base of triangle ABC. And since all the sides are in proportion to each other, the height of triangle PQR is also 1000 times larger than the height of triangle ABC. And since 1000 times 1000 equals 1,000,000 or 1 million, the area of triangle PQR is 1 million times larger than triangle ABC.</span>

Answer:

(a) Yes, Δ ABC and ΔPQR are similar triangles.

(b) Ratio of the areas of ΔPQR and ΔABC will be k².

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached two triangles, Δ ABC and Δ PQR have been given.

(a).In these triangle ∠ABC ≈ ∠PQR, ∠ACB ≈ ∠PRQ (Given)

Since it is given that two angles of the given triangles are equal so third angle will also be equal.

So by the theorem AAA both the triangles will be similar.

(b). Since in two similar triangles corresponding sides are in the same ratio (By theorem of similar triangles)

Therefore, sides of Δ PQR and Δ ABC will be in the same ratio = k where k > 1

Now area of Δ ABC A= \frac{1}{2}(AB)(Height)=\frac{1}{2}(AB)(h)

Similarly area of Δ PQR = A"=\frac{1}{2}(PQ)(Height)=\frac{1}{2}(PQ)(H")

Now ratio of area of Δ PQR and Δ ABC

\frac{A"}{A}=\frac{(\frac{1}{2})(PQ)(H")}{\frac{1}{2}(AB)(h) }

\frac{A"}{A}=\frac{(PQ)(H")}{(AB)(h)}

\frac{A"}{A}=\frac{(4k)(kh)}{(4)(h)}

\frac{A"}{A}=k^{2}

So ratio of area of Δ PQR and Δ ABC will be k².

maria purchased a new jacket for 78.12. the orginal price of the jacket was discounted 20% and Maria had to pay 5% sales tax. wh
prohojiy [21]
20 percent of the discount minus 5 percent sales tax equals to 15 percent.
know calculate the 15 percentage out of 78,12 so x on 78,12 equals to 20 on 100 so 78,12 equals to 100 percent and x equals to 15 percent so 78,12 times 15 divided by 100 is 15 percent or the number you found discount and and sales tax combined know you substact 15 percent out of your original price.

X-y=0 and 5x-2y=6 solve by elimination
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

(2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

first take x-y=0 and multiply it by -5 you will then get this

-5x+5y=0

5x-2y=6

add those together

3y=6

divide by 3

y=2

now plug 2 in for y

x-2=0

add 2 to both sides

x=2

Daniel is buying trophies and mounting stands for the upcoming basketball awards ceremony. The trophies come in boxes of 12 and
AveGali [126]

So, first, you have to find the smallest number that is divisible by both 12 and 10. Which is 60. So, you need 5 boxes of trophies and 6 boxes of stands

Now to get how much it will cost you now multiply the respective costs by the amount of boxes so you get

5 x 10 = 50

6 x 6 = 36

Then you add both

50 + 36 = 86

He will spend a total of $86 on both trophies and stands.
