Triangle PQR is transformed to triangle P'Q'R'. Triangle PQR has vertices P(4, 0), Q(0, −4), and R(−8, −4). Triangle P'Q'R' has

vertices P'(1, 0), Q'(0, −1), and R'(−2, −1).
Plot triangles PQR and P'Q'R' on your own coordinate grid.

Part A: What is the scale factor of the dilation that transforms triangle PQR to triangle P'Q'R'? Explain your answer.

Part B: Write the coordinates of triangle P"Q"R" obtained after P'Q'R' is reflected about the y-axis.

Part C: Are the two triangles PQR and P''Q''R'' congruent? Explain your answer.

Answer:

Please find attached the required plot accomplished with an online tool

Part A:

1/4

Part B:

P''(-1, 0),  Q''(0, -1), and R''(2, -1)

Part C:

Triangle PQR is similar to triangle P''Q''R'' but they are not congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

Triangle ΔPQR has vertices P(4, 0), Q(0, -4), R(-8, -4)

Triangle ΔP'Q'R' has vertices P'(1, 0), Q'(0, -1), R'(-2, -1)

The dimensions of the sides of the triangle are given by the relation;

l = \sqrt{\left (y_{2}-y_{1}  \right )^{2}+\left (x_{2}-x_{1}  \right )^{2}}

Where;

(x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the coordinates on the ends of the segment

For segment PQ, we place (x₁, y₁) = (4, 0) and (x₂, y₂) = (0, -4);

By substitution into the length equation, we get;

The length of segment PQ = 4·√2

The length of segment PR = 4·√10

The length of segment RQ = 8  

The length of segment P'Q' = √2

The length of segment P'R' = √10

The length of segment R'Q' = 2

Therefore, the scale factor of the dilation of ΔPQR to ΔP'Q'R' is 1/4

Part B:

Reflection of (x, y) across the y-axis gives;

(x, y) image after reflection across the y-axis = (-x, y)

The coordinates after reflection of P'(1, 0), Q'(0, -1), R'(-2, -1) across the y-axis is given as follows;

P'(1, 0) image after reflection across the y-axis = P''(-1, 0)

Q'(0, -1) image after reflection across the y-axis = Q''(0, -1)

R'(-2, -1) image after reflection across the y-axis = R''(2, -1)

Part C:

Triangle PQR is similar to triangle P''Q''R'' but they are not congruent as the dimensions of the sides of triangle PQR and P''Q''R'' are not the same.

A spinner numbered 1 through 12 is spun. Find the probability that
anastassius [24]

Answer:

\dfrac{1}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>A</em> be the event of getting an odd number.

<em>P(A)</em> be the probability of getting an odd number.

Total odd numbers here are 6 i.e. \{1,3,5,7,9,11\}

Here, total numbers in the game are 12 i.e \{1,2,3,....,12\}.

Formula for probability of an <em>event E</em> can be observed as:

P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}

P(A) = \dfrac{6}{12}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}

Let <em>B</em> be the event of getting 11.

<em>P(B)</em> be the probability of getting 11.

Total number of possible cases is 1.

P(B) = \dfrac{1}{12}

P(A \cap B) is the probability that we get 11 and an odd number.

Possible number of cases = 1

P(A\cap B) = \dfrac{1}{12}

<em>P(B/A)</em> is the probability that we get an 11 given that it is an odd number.

P(B/A) = \dfrac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{12}}{\dfrac{1}{2}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{6}

Hence, P(B/A) = \dfrac{1}{6}

X2 is on the right side, X1 is on the left side so -14 would be X1 and 2 would be x2

so it would be the first answer
