Since both triangles are similar triangles, you are able to find the scale factor through the perimeter.

Perimeter of the 3 4 5 triangle is 12cm.
Scale factor = 30/12
= 2.5

Multiply the scale factor with the 3 4 5 triangle.
3 x 2.5 = 7.5 cm
4 x 2.5 = 10 cm
5 x 2.5 = 12.5 cm

To summarize, all 3 new values should sum up to 30cm.

Answer: 1. 210 meters per second .

2. 756 kilometers per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The formula $S(d)=\sqrt{9.8d}$ to calculate the estimated speed, in meters per second of a tsunami.

1. If the disturbance occurred at an ocean depth of 4,500 meters.

Then put d= 4500 in the above formula , we get

$S(d)=\sqrt{9.8\times4500}$

$S(d)=\sqrt{44100}=\sqrt{21\times21\times10\times10}\\\\=\sqrt{210^2}=210$

Hence, if the disturbance occurred at an ocean depth of 4,500 meters , the estimated speed would be 210 meters per second .

Also, A meter per second is equal to 3.6 kilometers per hour.

i.e. 1 meter per second = 3.6 kilometers per hour

Then by unitary method ,

210 meters per second = $3.6\times210$ kilometers per hour

=756 kilometers per hour.

If the slope of AB = CD and BC = AD it's a parallelogram:

Slope of AB = 6+1 / -9+5 = -7/4

CD = -2-5 / 3+1 = -74

These are equal.

BC = 5-6 / -1 +9 = -1/8

AD = -2 +1 / 3+5 = -1/8

These are also equal so it is a parallelogram.

Now to find if the diagonals are perpendicular find the slope of the perpensicular points:

AC = 5 +1 / -1 +5 = 6/4 = 3/2

BD = 6+2 / -9 -3 = 8/-12 = -2/3

Because BD is the reciprocal of AC, this means they are perpendicular.

And because AB is not perpendicular to AD ( AB and AD are not reciprocals) it is a rhombus.

rodikova [14]

Answer:

$2\sqrt{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$1\sqrt{12} * 1\sqrt{2}$

$\sqrt{12} * \sqrt{2} = \sqrt{24}$

$\sqrt{24} = \sqrt{2^2 * 6} = 2\sqrt{6}$

Answer: $2\sqrt{6}$
