Answer:

1:4

Step-by-step explanation:

Current map scale 1:12

Three times bigger would be

3\times \frac{1}{12}=\frac{1}{4}=1:4

This would mean that 1 inch on the map would be 4 yards in the real world

Let us take example

If something measured 100 yards in the real world then in the old map it would be \frac{100}{12}=8.33 inches in the map

Now in the new map if something measured 100 yards in the real world then in the new map it would be  \frac{100}{4}=25 inches.

So, the new scale would be 1:4, this means that 1 yard in the actual world would be 4 inches in the map.

HELP MUTIPLE CHICE IM BEING TIMED GEOMETRY PICKING SOMEONE FOR Brainliest
ollegr [7]

Answer:

1. SSS

2. Q and S

3. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

1. SSS similarity: If the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the two triangles are similar.

Triangles NLM and WUV are similar by SSS similarity, because

\dfrac{NL}{WU}=\dfrac{36}{63}=\dfrac{4}{7}\\ \\\dfrac{LM}{UV}=\dfrac{40}{70}=\dfrac{4}{7}\\ \\\dfrac{NM}{WV}=\dfrac{24}{42}=\dfrac{4}{7}

2. Completed steps:

a) draw a circle with center at P and radius r

b) draw a circle with center at Q and radius r

c) using compass, measure the distance between two points of intersection of the first circle with angle rays

d) using point of intersection of the second circle with PQ as a center, draw the circle of radius equal to the distance from c) to get point S

Last step: connect points Q and S, line QS will be parallel to line r.

3. If lines MN and UT are parallel, then angles MUT and VMN are congruent; also angles UTN and MNV are congruent.

AA similarity: In two triangles, if two pairs of corresponding angles are congruent, then the triangles are similar .

By AA similarity, triangles VMN and VUT are similar, thus

\dfrac{VM}{VU}=\dfrac{VN}{VT}\\ \\\dfrac{VM}{VM+8}=\dfrac{49-14}{49}\\ \\49VM=35(VM+8)\\ \\49VM=35VM+280\\ \\49VM-35VM=280\\ \\14VM=280\\ \\VM=20\ units
