What set of reflections would carry rectangle ABCD onto itself?
1 answer:
Answer:
y=x, x-axis, y=x, y-axis
Explanation:
Reflecting the figure across three axes just moves it from one quadrant to another. It does not map the figure to itself.
Reflecting across the line y=x moves it from quadrant II to IV or vice-versa. If it is in quadrant I or III, it stays there. So the sequence of reflections x-axis (moves from I to IV), y=x (moves from IV to II), x-axis (moves from II to III), y=x (stays in III) will not map the figure to itself.
However, the last selection will map the figure to itself. The initial (and final) figure location, and the intermediate reflections are shown in the attached. The figure starts and ends as blue, is reflected across y=x to green, across x-axis to orange, across y=x to red, and finally across y-axis to blue again.

Answer:
<h3>x = 27</h3>Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expression , we are to find the value of x in the expression. This is as shown below;
add 22 to both sides
divide both sides by 2
raise both sides to the power of 3/5
Hence the value of x is 27
Answer:
Option 4 is correct. The length of PR is 6.4 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given figure it is noticed that the triangle PQR and triangle MQR.
Let the length of PR be x.
Pythagoras formula
Use pythagoras formula for triangle PQM.
The value of PM is 10. The length of PR is x, so the length of MR is (10-x).
Use pythagoras formula for triangle PQR.
.....(1)
Use pythagoras formula for triangle MQR.
.... (2)
From equation (1) and (2) we get
Therefore length of PR is 6.4 units and option 4 is correct.
