Are the two triangles similar? If so explain why they are

Elden [556K]

Yes, the two triangles are similar.

Similar triangles have equal corresponding angles and proportionate sides.
We can see that the corresponding angles of the two triangles are equal because although the smaller triangle is rotated, the angle measurements of both triangles are 23°, 67°, and 90°.
The corresponding sides are proportionate because they have a set ratio. The sides of the smaller triangle are all 1/4 the length of the corresponding sides of the bigger triangle.

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

$5.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Joshua paid $9.10 for a bag and has $16.25 left

Now let's find out how much Joshua had before spending on a bag. To do this, we simply sum up the cost of the bag and how much Joshua had lefyt

9.10 + 16.25

=$25.35

Since Joshua and Shopping had the same amount, Shuping also had $25.35

To get the cost of the pen, we subtract the amount Shuping had left after purchasing the pen

This gives;

25.35 - 19.60

=$5.75

1/4 foot every 3/4 hour how many feet in one hour

RUDIKE [14]

For this case we propose a rule of three:

$\frac {1} {4}$ foot -------------> $\frac {3} {4}$ hour

x -----------------------------------> 1 hour

Where "x" represents the amount of foot in one hour.

$x = \frac {1 * \frac {1} {4}} {\frac {3} {4}}\\x = \frac {\frac {1} {4}} {\frac {3} {4}}\\x = \frac {4 * 1} {3 * 4}\\x = \frac {4} {12}\\x = \frac {1} {3}$
