1. ΔABC is a right triangle, with a     1. Given

right angle at ∠C

2. Draw an altitude from point C     2. From a point not on a line, exactly                    

to AB               one perpendicular can be drawn through the point to the line

3. ∠CDB and ∠CDA are right          3. Definition of altitude

angles

4. ∠BCA  ≅ ∠BDC                            4. All right angles are congruent

5. ∠B  ≅ ∠B                                      5. Reflexive\:Property

6. ΔCBA ~ ΔDBC                             6. AA Similarity Postulate

Answer:

0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Add up all of the students.

20+20+25+7+13+5+3+2+5=100

2. Make a ratio of that number and the number of all the students in Music/Drama

MUSIC/DRAMA: 7+13+5=25

\frac{25}{100}

3. Simplify

\frac{25}{100} = \frac{5}{20} =\frac{1}{4} = 0.25

What effect does 'h' have on the graph of a parabola?
Kipish [7]

The effect that  'h' have on the graph of a parabola is Horizontal shift or translation .

<h3>What is translation?</h3>

A translation is the movement of  a shape up, down , this can also be movement from side to side.

Even though there is movement,   its appearance remains the same in any other way, hence, h values cause left or right movement with respect to the graph.
