Answer:

a) ∆RLG ~ ∆NCP; SF: 3/2 (smaller to larger)

b) no; different angles

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The triangles will be similar if their angles are congruent. The scale factor will be the ratio of any side to its corresponding side.

The third angle in ∆RLG is 180° -79° -67° = 34°. So, the two angles 34° and 67° in ∆RLG match the corresponding angles in ∆NCP. The triangles are similar by the AA postulate.

Working clockwise around each figure, the sequence of angles from lower left is 34°, 79°, 67°. So, we can write the similarity statement by naming the vertices in the same order: ∆RLG ~ ∆NCP.

The scale factor relating the second triangle to the first is ...

NC/RL = 45/30 = 3/2

__

b) In order for the angles of one triangle to be congruent to the angles of the other triangle, at least one member of a list of two of the angles must match for the two triangles. Neither of the numbers 57°, 85° match either of the numbers 38°, 54°, so we know the two triangles have different angle measures. They cannot be similar.

Equation of a Straight Line

1.1 Solve 3x-4y+7 = 0

Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line 3x-4y+7 = 0 and calculate its properties

Graph of a Straight Line :

Calculate the Y-Intercept :

Notice that when x = 0 the value of y is 7/4 so this line "cuts" the y axis at y= 1.75000

y-intercept = 7/4 = 1.75000

Calculate the X-Intercept :

When y = 0 the value of x is -7/3 Our line therefore "cuts" the x axis at x=-2.33333

x-intercept = -7/3 = -2.33333

Calculate the Slope :

Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is 1.750 and for x=2.000, the value of y is 3.250. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of 3.250 - 1.750 = 1.500 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)

Slope = 1.500/2.000 = 0.750

Geometric figure: Straight Line

Slope = 1.500/2.000 = 0.750

x-intercept = -7/3 = -2.33333

y-intercept = 7/4 = 1.75000

Joseph borrowed a book from a library. The library charged a fixed rental for the book and a late fee for every day the book was

Paha777 [63]

The coefficient, 0.25, of the expression represents the late fee for every day the book was overdue.

And the constant, 2, represents the fixed rental fee.

The variable, x, represents the number of days Joseph had the book for.

Hope this helps :)
