George has a triangle-shaped garden in his backyard. He drew a model of this garden on a coordinate grid with vertices A(4, 2),

B(2, 4), and C(6, 4). He wants to create another, similar-shaped garden, A′B′C′, by dilating triangle ABC by a scale factor of 0.5. What are the coordinates of triangle A′B′C′?

Given:

Vertices of a triangular garden:

A(4,2)
B(2,4)
C(6,4)
Scale factor = 0.5

Find the distance between points:

d = √(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2

dAB = 2√2
dBC = 4
dCA = 2√2

A similarly shaped garden is to be created using the scale factor, 0.5:

A' = 2√2 / 0.5 = 4√2
B' = 4 / 0.5 = 8
C' = 2√2 / 0.5 = 4√2

Rasek [7]

Answer:

A) AA postulate; 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Due to the similar triangles, we can set up the proportion and solve for x

8/(8+4) = 12/x

8/12 = 12/x

8*x = 12*12 ... cross multiply

8x = 144

x = 144/8

x = 18

Lilit [14]

The <u>correct answer</u> is:


B) Statement 1 and Statement 2 are theorems because they can be proved with the help of appropriate postulates.


Explanation:


<u>Statement 1</u> is the Line Intersection Theorem. To prove this, we use postulates about having only one plane passing through any 3 noncollinear points. We would choose two points from one line and one point from the second; they would be non-collinear points and be in one plane. This also works choosing the points the opposite way.


<u>Statement 2</u> is the Point and Line Contained in Plane Theorem. Again, if two lines intersect, we can choose three points to define a plane. We have to prove that both lines are in the plane. We rely on previously proven postulates to do this.
