Triangle PQR is transformed to triangle P′Q′R′. Triangle PQR has vertices P(4, −8), Q(0, 12), and R(−4, 0). Triangle P′Q′R′ has

vertices P′(1, −2), Q′(0, 3), and R′(−1, 0).
Part A: What is the scale factor of the dilation that transforms triangle PQR to triangle P′Q′R′? Explain your answer. (4 points)

Part B: Write the coordinates of triangle P′′Q′′R′′ obtained after P′Q′R′ is reflected about the y-axis. (4 points)

Part C: Are the two triangles PQR and P′'Q′'R′' congruent? Explain your answer. (2 points)

Part A:

The scale factor is 1/4, because you obtain the coordinates of points P', Q', R' by dividing the coordinates of P, Q and R respectively by 4.

Part B:

Reflecting about the y axis causes a sign swap in the x coordinate. So, the new point will be

P''(-1, -2),\quad Q''(0, 3),\quad R''(1, 0)

Part C:

The triangles are similar, but not congruent. When you transform PQR into P'Q'R', you get a scaled version of the original triangle. This means that the angles and the proportion between sizes will be the same, but the length are scaled by 1/4, and the area is consequentially scaled by 1/16.

Triangles P'Q'R' and P''Q''R'' are congruent, so they are both similar but not congruent to the original triangle.

Cole ride his bike for 45 miles at a rate if 15 miles per hour. How long did it take him to ride in 40 miles? PLEASE HELP
tatiyna
15x=45
45/15 =3
X=3
45 miles in 3 hours

How long did it take for 40 miles?

15x=40
40/15 = 2.6666667

15 x 2= 30
15 x 2.5 = 37.5
15 x 2.6 = 39
15 x 2.7 = 40.5
1 hour equals 60 mins

Answer:
It took Cole about 2 hours and 6 mins to ride 40 miles.
