For ΔABC, ∠A = 3x - 8, ∠B = 5x - 6, and ∠C = 4x + 2. If ΔABC undergoes a dilation by a scale factor of 1 2 to create ΔA'B'C' wit

h ∠A' = 2x + 8, ∠B' = 90 - x, and ∠C' = 5x - 14, which confirms that ΔABC∼ΔA'B'C by the AA criterion?

We all know that a triangle has 180 degrees.
3x-8+5x-6+4x+2=180
12x-12=180
12x=180+12
12x=192
x=16.


∠A=2(16)+8=40
∠B= 90-16=74
∠C = 5(16) -14= 66

Answer:

\triangle ABC \sim \triangle A'B'C'        

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

\triangle ABC \sim \triangle A'B'C'

\angle A = 3x - 8, \angle B = 5x - 6, \angle C = 4x + 2.

\angle A' = 2x + 8, \angle B' = 90 - x,  \angle C' = 5x - 14

According to angle sum property of triangle the sum of all the three angles of triangle is 180.

\triangle ABC\\\angle A + \angle B + \angle C = 180^\circ\\3x -8+5x-6+4x+2 = 180\\12x-12 = 180\\12x = 192\\x = 16

For the two triangles to be similar by AA criterion.

\angle A = \angle A'\\\angle B = \angle B'

\angle A = 3x - 8 = 40\\\angle A' = 2x + 8 = 40\\\angle B = 5x - 6 = 74\\\angle B' = 90 - x = 74

Thus, this confirms that the triangles are congruent.

\triangle ABC \sim \triangle A'B'C'

Solve for x<br> -2x + 4 = 6x - 12
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+4=6x-12  Add 2x to both sides.

<u>+2x    +2x</u>

4=8x-12         Add 12 to both sides.

<u>+12  +12</u>

16=8x            Divide by 8 on both sides.

<u>/8 /8</u>

2=x

Hope this helps you out and have a great day (~^▽^)~
