The ratio of the areas of two similar polygons is 400:25. what is the ratio of their corresponding sides

2 answers:

Bogdan [553]3 years ago

The ratio of areas is given by:
A1 / A2 = 400/25 = k ^ 2
Therefore, the relationship of the sides is given by:
L1 / L2 = k
Clearing k we have:
k = root (400/25)
Rewriting we have:
L1 / L2 = k = 20/5
Answer:
The ratio of their corresponding sides is:
20: 5

Factorise 14x2 – X-3

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

From quadratic formula:

Q=1+168=169

X1,2=1±13/28=>

X1=14/28=1/2

X2=12/28=3/7

(X-X1) (X-X2) =0=>

(X-1/2)(X-3/7)=0

Find the distance between the two points in simplest radical form.<br> (-5,8) and (-3, 1)

elixir [45]

Given:

The two points are (-5,8) and (-3,1).

To find:

The distance between the given two points in simplest radical form.

Solution:

Distance formula: The distance between two points is

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Using distance formula, the distance between (-5,8) and (-3,1) is

$d=\sqrt{(-3-(-5))^2+(1-8)^2}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3+5)^2+(-7)^2}$

$d=\sqrt{(2)^2+(-7)^2}$

$d=\sqrt{4+49}$

$d=\sqrt{53}$

Therefore, the distance between two points (-5,8) and (-3,1) is $\sqrt{53}$ units.

Which of the following is best described as a three-dimensional solid consisting of a base that can be any polygon a point not i

Harman [31]

Answer:

Option D

Pyramid

Step-by-step explanation:

The clause that gave away the answer is "<em>three-dimensional solid consisting of a base that can be any polygon"</em>

<em></em>

Scanning through the options, we can see that the only option that fits the description is the pyramid.

The pyramid is the only three-dimensional shape amongst the options that can take any polygon as a base.

<em>The other options get screened out here.</em>

A cube must have a square base.

A triangular prism must have a triangular base

A rectangular prism must have a rectangular base

Thus, option D: The Pyramid is the correct answer.
