Question: Consider the similarity transformation of ΔABC to produce ΔEDF.

Mathematics
1 answer:
german3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we have triangle  ΔABC

step 1

Rotate 90 degrees clockwise ΔABC about point C to obtain ΔA'B'C'

Remember that

A rotation is a rigid transformation

An object and its rotation are the same shape and size, but the figures may be turned in different directions

so

ΔABC and ΔA'B'C' are congruent

ΔABC≅ ΔA'B'C

step 2

Dilate the triangle ΔA'B'C' to obtain triangle ΔEDF

Remember that

A dilation is a non rigid transformation

A dilation produces similar figures

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding angles is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

Find the scale factor of the dilation

The scale factor is equal to the ratio of corresponding sides

In this problem

Let

z ----> the scale factor

so

z=\frac{ED}{AB}=\frac{DF}{BC}=\frac{EF}{AC}

Multiply the length sides of triangle ΔA'B'C' by the scale factor z to obtain the length sides of triangle ΔEDF

Note: in this problem the scale factor z is less than 1

That means ----> the dilation is a reduction

The residents of a certain dormitory have collected the following data: People who live in the dorm can be classified as either
Vlad [161]

Answer:

33.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Breakup percentage = 15

New relationship percentage = 30

To obtain the steady state percentage of residents who are uninvolved, we could relate the scenario to the natural unemployment rate relation : seperation rate ÷ (seperation rate * finding rate)

Hence, we could use the Relation as this ;

Breakup percentage ÷ (Breakup percentage + new relationship rate)

15% ÷ (15% + 30%)

0.15 ÷ (0.15 + 0.30)

0.15 ÷ 0.45

= 0.33333

= 33.33%

Which composite figure has the greatest surface area
Bumek [7]

Answer:

sphere...

Step-by-step explanation:

because...

just like if we increase the no. of faces of composite figures ...

surface area is increased ...

so no. of faces is infinite in sphere...

logically sphere have the greatest surface area
