^ very very wrong do NOT ever assume they are congruent. Congruent triangles are always similar, but similar triangles are NOT ALWAYS congruent.

similar triangles are triangles that have proportioned sides and congruent angles.

Help please I'm not sure if I got it right, I'm a bit confused. 5th grade math
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

  check your math

Step-by-step explanation:

The first subtraction was correct:

  36 -7 3/4 = 28 1/4

The second subtraction needs to be revisited.

  28 1/4 -6 2/4 = 27 5/4 -6 2/4 = 21 3/4

__

You can do what you did, but you need to pay attention to the signs.

  28 1/4 -6 2/4 = (28 -6) +(1/4 -2/4) = 22 - 1/4 = 21 3/4

The result of subtracting 2/4 from 1/4 is -1/4, not +1/4.

_____

The length of the first cut piece was 21 3/4 inches.

The smaller triangle is the image of the larger triangle after a dilation. The center of the dilation is (4,2).
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the ratio of the corresponding sides to get the scale factor so for this equation let's use the hypotenuse.

The length of the hypotenuse of the larger triangle is 12 units and the smaller triangle's hypotenuse is 4 so 4/12 is the scale factor.

However 4/12  can be simplified down to 1/3.

Since the smaller triangle has been flipped upside down the scale factor is negative so the final answer is -1/3
