Answer:

The probability of getting a pair of red socks is 0.322

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given data we have that A drawer contains 11 identical red socks and 8 identical black socks, hence, the total number of socks is 19, therefore, in order to calculate the probability of getting a pair of red socks we would have to use the following formula:

probability of getting a pair of red socks=11C2/19C2

probability of getting a pair of red socks=55/171

probability of getting a pair of red socks=0.322

The probability of getting a pair of red socks is 0.322

Angle W and Y are right angles and equal to 90 degrees each. Angle z and angle x  are same side interior angles and they have a sum of 180 degrees because of the same side interior angles postulate.

so W= 90  Y=90   X+Z= 180 .  so 90+180+90 =360 degrees. B.

2.

M must be (0,0) since it coincides with the origin
R must be (a+b, √(a²-b²)).
The x-coordinate is b from A translated to the right by a.
The y-coordinate is the same as A.

(I think the square root is there to confuse you).

3.

R(0,0)
C(a,b) (same x as T, same Y as E)

5.

Not sure how to prove that.
