The measure of EC is 1 ft.
Solution:
Given data:
AD = 8 ft, DB = 2 ft, AE = 4 ft
To find the measure of EC:
Using triangle proportionality theorem,
<em>If a line is parallel to one side of a triangle intersects the other two sides, then it divides the two side proportionally.</em>


Do cross multiplication.

8 EC = 8
Divide by 8 on both side of the equation, we get
EC = 1
EC = 1 ft
Hence the measure of EC is 1 ft.

=============================================
Work Shown:
Refer to the diagram below. I've added a line segment and two variables y and z. This forms two isosceles triangles.
The central angle 56 degrees subtends the same arc as the inscribed angle y. By the inscribed angle theorem, this means y = 56/2 = 28. The inscribed angle is always half of the central angle (when both angles subtend the same arc).
Focus on the smaller isosceles triangle that has angles 56, z and z. Those three angles add to 180
z+z+56 = 180
2z+56 = 180
2z = 180-56
2z = 124
z = 124/2
z = 62
Now focus on the larger isosceles triangle (angles y = 28, x+z and x+z)
We'll use the same trick as before.
(x+z)+(x+z)+(y) = 180
(x+62)+(x+62)+(28) = 180 ... plug in z = 62 and y = 28
2x+152 = 180
2x = 180-152
2x = 28
x = 28/2
x = 14

⊕ Yes, the constant of proportionality is 3.5
Answer:
<em>Thus, the transformation from ABC to A'B'C' is a reflection over the x-axis.</em>
<em>Choice 1.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Reflection over the x-axis</u>
Given a point A(x,y), a reflection over the x-axis maps A to the point A' with coordinates A'(x,-y).
The figure shows triangles ABC and A'B'C'. It can be clearly seen the x-coordinates for each vertex of both triangles is the same and the y-coordinate is the inverse of it counterpart. For example A=(5,3) and A'=(5,-3)
Thus, the transformation from ABC to A'B'C' is a reflection over the x-axis.
Choice 1.
Answer:
1 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
I think you need to times it like 2 1/2 x 3/4, first you make 2 1/2 into 5/2 then times it like this 5/2 x 3/4. the answer is 1 7/8
