If you use the common denominator of .5 for both sides of the ratio, you will arrive at 3:5 as a simplified form.

I usually divide both numbers by the GCF (Greatest common factor of where its a number where it can go into both numbers u looking for) and divide the numbers by that, and for 1:5 and 2:5 it CANT( CAN NOT) be simplified any further since its already simplified in lowest terms.

What is x, if the volume of the cylinder is 768pi rcm3?

AVprozaik [17]

let's recall Cavalieri's Principle, <u>solids with equal altitudes and cross-sectional areas at each height have the same volume</u>, so even though this cylinder is slanted with a height = x and a radius = 8, the cross-sectional areas from the bottom to top are the same thickness and thus the same area, so its volume will be the same as a cylinder with the same height and radius that is not slanted.

$\bf \textit{volume of a cylinder}\\\\ V=\pi r^2 h~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\ h=height\\ \cline{1-1} r=8\\ h=x\\ V=768\pi \end{cases}\implies 768\pi =\pi (8)^2(x)\implies 768\pi =64\pi x \\\\\\ \cfrac{768\pi }{64\pi }=x\implies 12=x$

Consider the two triangles. To prove that △LMN ~ △XYZ by the SSS similarity theorem using the information provided in the diagra

dimaraw [331]

The corresponding sides are
LN to XZ
LM to XY
NM to ZY

We have NM=3 and ZY=9
The scale factor is 9÷3=3

XZ = 2×3 = 6 units
LM = 12÷3 = 4 units

The correct answer is <span>LM is 4 units and XZ is 6 units</span>
