Answer: Polygons A and B are not Similar.

Polygons A and C are Not Similar.

Only Polygons B and C are Similar.

Step-by-step explanation:Answer:

We are given three rectangular figures A, B and C.

We need to determine which polygons are similar and which are not.

<em>Note: The sides of similar figures are in proportion.</em>

Let us check first A and B figures.

105/120 = 7/8

80/90 = 8/9.

We can see 105/120 ≠ 80/90

Sides are not in proportion of Polygons A and B.

So, the Polygons A and B are not Similar.

Let us check first A and C figures.

105/100 = 21/20

80/75 = 16/15.

We can see 105/100 ≠ 80/75

Sides are not in proportion of Polygons A and C.

So, the Polygons A and C are Not Similar.

Let us check first B and C figures.

120/100 = 6/5.

90/75 = 6/5.

We can see 120/100 = 90/75 = 6/5

<h3>Sides are in proportion of Polygons B and c.</h3><h3>So, the Polygons B and C are Similar.</h3>

the longer side / the shorter side must be the same for rectangles to be similar.

For A: 105 / 80 = 1.32

For B: 120 / 90 = 1.33

For C: 100 / 75 = 1.47

So... only A and B are similar.

Ahmad’s father is 4 times as old as Ahmad. After 5 years, father will be three times as old as Ahmad. Find their present ages

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

The present age of Ahmed and Ahmed's father is 12 and 36 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Ahmed's father is thrice as old as Ahmed. After 12 years, his age will be twice that of his son.

To Find : Their present age ?

Solution :

Let the Ahmed's age be 'x'.

Ahmed's father is thrice as old as Ahmed.

i.e. Ahmed's father age is '3x'

After 12 years, his age will be twice that of his son.

i.e. 3x+12 = 2(x+12)3x+12=2(x+12)

Solving the equation,

3x+12 = 2x+243x+12=2x+24

x=12x=12

So, Ahmed's age is 12.

Ahmed's father age is 3\times 12=363×12=36

Therefore, The present age of Ahmed and Ahmed's father is 12 and 36 respectively.

- 16m’n-(-25m’n)+(-7m’n)Which of the following is equivalent to the expression above?

Westkost [7]

As a rule , - times - = + and - times + = -

$\begin{gathered} -16m^2n-(-25m^2n)+(-7m^2n\text{ ) } \\ =-16m^2n+25m^2n-7m^2n\text{ ( based on the rule above )} \\ =+9m^2n-7m^2n\text{ ( -16 + 25 = + 9 )} \\ =+2m^2n \end{gathered}$

Therefore the correct answer to the question is 2m squared n

What is the sum of the first five terms of a geometric series with a1=15 and r=1/3

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

15, 5, 5/3, 5/9, 5/27

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall, that the general form of a geometric series is

a, ar, ar², ar³, .........

where a is the first term and r is the ratio

It is given that the first time is 15, hence a = 15

also given that ratio is 1/3

hence the first 5 terms are:

15, (15)(1/3), (15)(1/3)^2, (15)(1/3)^3, (15)(1/3)^4

simplifying each term gives

15, 5, 5/3, 5/9, 5/27
