Answer:

90 square cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

For similar figures, the length of corresponding sides are proportional.

So we can write 4k = 6 where k is the proportionality constant.

<u>Note: </u>In terms of area, the scale factor would be k^2 and in terms of volume, it would be k^3y

Solving 4k = 6, we see that k = 6/4 or 3/2

We need area, so we <u><em>multiply area of ABC by k^2 to get area of PQR.</em></u>

<u><em>40(\frac{3}{2})^2\\=40(\frac{9}{4})\\=90</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

Area of PQR = 90 cm^2

Answer:

The area of △PQR is 90\ cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the scale factor

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and this ratio is called the scale factor

so

Let

z-----> the scale factor

x---> the corresponding side triangle PQR

y---> the corresponding side triangle ABC

z=\frac{x}{y}

substitute the values

z=\frac{6}{4}=1.5

step 2

Find the area of triangle PQR

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas  is equal to the scale factor squared

so

Let

z-----> the scale factor

x---> the area of triangle PQR

y---> the area of triangle ABC

z^{2} =\frac{x}{y}

we have

z=1.5

y=40\ cm^{2}

substitute the values

1.5^{2} =\frac{x}{40}

x=40(1.5^{2})=90\ cm^{2}

The Rangers played 40 games. They won 18 more games then they lost. How many games did they win?
maxonik [38]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  29

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the number of wins. Then the number of losses is w-18. The total number of games played is ...

  wins + losses = 40

  w + (w-18) = 40

  2w = 58

  w = 29

The Rangers won 29 games.

Answer:

58

Step-by-step explanation:

(2)(4) + (2)(-√-100) + (√-25)(4) + (√-25)(-√-100)

= 8 - 20i + 20i + 50 = 58
