△WPJ∼△DNJ What is PWPW ? Enter your answer in the box.
1 answer:
Use <em>CPCTC</em> and make ratios and proportionalities to find the value of segment PW:
If △WPJ∼△DNJ, then according to CPCTC, WP must be proportional to DN and PJ must be proportional to JN. Now, we can make a ratio:
Substitute the values that are given in the diagram.
DN=87.5
NJ=56
PJ=64
Solve for x. You can do it by cross-multiplication.
The measure of segment WP is 100 meters.

The statement that is true is;
The vertices of the image are closer to the origin than those of the pre-image
Step-by-step explanation:
The dilation rule is 0.75(x,y)= (0.75x, 0.75y)
K (-4,4)----------( 0.75*-4,0.75*4)-------K' (-3,3)
L (2,4)-----------(0.75*2,0.75*4)---------L' (1.5,3)
M (-2,2)----------(0.75*-2,0.75*2)--------M' (-1.5,1.5)
