Answer:

<u>option 1</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is as shown in the attached figure.

From the figure, we can deduce that:

∠U ≅ ∠X and ∠W ≅ ∠Z  and ∠V ≅ ∠Y

So, ΔUWV similar to ΔXZY

But it is required to know " How can the triangles be proven similar by the SSS similarity theorem? "

So, we need to prove the corresponding angles are proportion

With the help of the previous corresponding angles.

So, we need to show that the ratios \frac{UV}{XY}  \ , \ \frac{WU}{ZX} \  and \ \frac{WV}{ZY} are equivalent.

So, the answer is <u>option 1</u>

Which linear function represents the line given by the point-slope equation y + 7 = –2/3(x + 6)?a. f(x) = –2/3x – 11b. f(x) = –2
Pavel [41]

Answer:

option C

y=\frac{-2}{3}x-11

Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope equation of a line is given by

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is the point on the point

y + 7 =\frac{-2}{3}(x + 6)

We need to write the equation in y=mx+b form

multiply -2/3 inside the parenthesis

y + 7 =\frac{-2}{3}x-4

Subtract 7 from both sides

y=\frac{-2}{3}x-11

determine the value of x for which r parallels s. then find the measure of angle 1 and the measure of angle 2measure angle 1= 50
Maslowich

According to the picture, angles 1 and 2 have the same measure because they are corresponding angles. Make equal both expressions for 1 and 2 and find x.

\begin{gathered} 50-2x=110-42x \\ 42x-2x=110-50 \\ 40x=60 \\ x=\frac{60}{40} \\ x=\frac{3}{2} \end{gathered}

x is 3/2. Replace this value in both expression to find the measure of each angle.

\begin{gathered} \measuredangle1=50-2x \\ \measuredangle1=50-2(\frac{3}{2}) \\ \measuredangle1=50-3 \\ \measuredangle1=47 \\ \measuredangle2=110-42x \\ \measuredangle2=110-42(\frac{3}{2}) \\ \measuredangle2=110-63 \\ \measuredangle2=47 \end{gathered}

The measure of these angles is 47°

A flea treatment last 4 weeks. Jim's dog had to be treated every 3 weeks. How many weeks of flea treatment would Jim's dog get i
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Number of weeks in a year = 52 weeks

If in a normal year when each package of flea treatment lasts for 4 weeks, then in a year there Jim's dog will have to be treated for

Where as, when the fleas are bad in a year, the treatment lasts for only 3 weeks.

Then in a year Jim's dog would get

So Jim's dog will get 17- 13 =4 treatments more.

4 treatments that are made in 3 weeks each will be 4×3 =12 weeks more treatment

Given:
Masja [62]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

By joining N to L, you will have a right angled triangle which is right angle at N. Then r^2+36=(3+x)^2. r=9/2. PQ=2r=9
