Which statement best explains why the dilation of a triangle produces a similar triangle

Dilation always preserves angle measures, the given statement best explains why the dilation of a triangle produces a similar triangle

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The dilation (similarity transformations) varies the size of the figure. This requires a midpoint and a scale factor k. The k value finds whether it is an increase or decrease.

  • If | k |> 1, the dilation is an extension.
  • If | k | <1 it is reduction.

The absolute value of k determines the size of the new image relative to the size of the original image. If the k is positive, the new and original image is on the same side of the center.

If k is negative, they are on both sides of the center. Its own image is always at the center of development. This support angle size, point equality, and collinearity. Does not maintain distance. In simple, dilation always give similar figures.

Answer:

1) (x + 3)(3x + 2)

2) x= +/-root6 - 1 by 5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 + 11x + 6 = 0 (mid-term break)

using mid-term break

3x^2 + 9x + 2x + 6 = 0

factor out 3x from first pair and +2 from the second pair

3x(x + 3) + 2(x + 3)

factor out x+3

(x + 3)(3x + 2)

5x^2 + 2x = 1 (completing squares)

rearrange the equation

5x^2 + 2x - 1 = 0

divide both sides by 5 to cancel out the 5 of first term

5x^2/5 + 2x/5 - 1/5 = 0/5

x^2 + 2x/5 - 1/5 = 0

rearranging the equation to gain a+b=c form

x^2 + 2x/5 = 1/5

adding (1/5)^2 on both sides

x^2 + 2x/5 + (1/5)^2 = 1/5 + (1/5)^2

(x + 1/5)^2 = 1/5 + 1/25

(x + 1/5)^2 = 5 + 1 by 25

(x + 1/5)^2 = 6/25

taking square root on both sides

root(x + 1/5)^2 = +/- root(6/25)

x + 1/5 = +/- root6 /5

shifting 1/5 on the other side

x = +/- root6 /5 - 1/5

x = +/- root6 - 1 by 5

x = + root6 - 1 by 5 or x= - root6 - 1 by 5

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope Intercept form.
andre [41]

Answer:

y = -0.83x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is y = mx+b.

M is the slope: In this case the slope (rise/run) is 10/12. However, the slope is decreasing is that would make it negative.

Now we have: y = -0.83x + b

B represents the y-intercept. The y-intercept here is -2. So our final equation is:

y = -0.83x - 2
