Is it possible for the two triangles described below to be similar? Two angles of one triangle measure 60° and 70°. Two angles o

f the other triangle measure 50° and 80°.

Answer:

  no

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar triangles have angles with the same measures.

  angles in the first triangle are 50°, 60°, 70°.

  angles in the second triangle are 50°, 50°, 80°.

The angles do not have the same values, so the triangles cannot be similar.

_____

<em>Comment on the question</em>

When 2 of the three angles are different, the third angle cannot make the triangles similar. We don't even need to compute the third angle to answer this question.

What is the x-intercept of the line described by the equation?
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

(0,-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

recall that the y-intercept is simply the point where the line crosses the y-axis at x = 0.

to find the y intercept, we simply substitute x=0 into the equation and solve for y

12x - 10y = 60, when x = 0,

12(0) - 10y = 60

-10y = 60

y = 60 / (-10)

y = -6

hence the coordinate of the y - intercept is (0,-6)

What is the nth term of 5,11,17,23
rewona [7]

Answer:

6n - 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequence.

a1 = 5, d = 6.

nth term = a1 + d(n - 1)

= 5 + 6(n - 1)

= 5 + 6n - 6

= 6n - 1.

Which is the best approximation for the measure of angle ABC?
ankoles [38]
We can find the approximate measurement of angle ABC  and it is equal to 180°. The summation of all angles in a triangle is 180°.
Solving for x or angle B, we need to used Pythagorean theorem and SOH CAH TOA.
Solving for angle A:
sinA = 10.5/20
A = 31.67°

Solving for angle B:
180° = ∠C + ∠B + ∠A
180° = 90° + ∠B + 31.67
∠B = 58.33°

The x value is 58.33°.

Select the equation that contains the point (3, -9), and in which the graph of the line has a positive slope.
Kamila [148]
First thing to do is to solve each of these for y.  The first one is y=-4x-3; the second one is y=4x-21; the third one is y=4x+21; the fourth one is y=-4x+3.  From that you can tell the positive slopes are found in the second and third equations.  Those are the ones we will test now for the point (3, -9).  y=-9 and x=3, so let's fill in accordingly.  The second equation filled in is -9=4(3)-21.  Does the left side equal the right when we do the math?  -9=12-21 and -9=-9.  So the second one works.  Just for the sake of completion, let's do the same with the third: -9=4(3)+21.  Does -9=12+21?  Of course it doesn't.  Our equation is the second one above, y+9=4(x-3).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

If you take one radius whose length is r and start it at (0,0) on one end and (r,0) at the other, and sweep it around so the (r,0) hits every point on the circumference of the circle, the radius will go through 360°.

You have only gone through 120°. That's no problem. All you have to do now is add a fraction that adjusts for the 120°.

Formula

Arc length = fraction * 2*pi * r

2*pi * r is the circumference

Arc Length = 2* (120/360) * pi * r

Givens

r = 13

pi = 3.14

Solution

Arc Length = (120/360) * 2 * pi * 13

Arc Length = 27.21

Answer

Arc Length = 27.21
