The graph of a quadratic relationship is in the shape of a parabola. Parabolas are symmetric arcs and are useful for modeling re

lationships such as the height of a projectile over time or the curve of the cables on a suspension bridge.
Think about where you have seen a parabolic arc in real life. What unique features did it have, and where did you see symmetry in the relationship?

Answer:

  • The arcs on the Golden Gate Bridge.

Explanation:

I think about the Golden Gate Bridge, which is a suspension bridge.

As in any suspension bridge, a long cable is supported by two large supports.

The cable falls from a support, in the form of a curve concave upwards, to a minimum point that is the vertex of the<em> parabola</em>, through which the axis of <em>symmetry</em> passes, and curves again upwards to ascend to the upper end of the other support.

As a <em>unique feature</em> of this parabolic arc you can tell that the the concavity is upward; the parabola open upward.

Also, you can tell that the parabola is vertical, which means that the axis of symmetry is vertical.

The <em>symmetry</em> is clear because to the curve to the left of the vertex is a mirror image of the curve to the right of the vertex.

Please help. the question is in the picture.
Harlamova29_29 [7]

We have measures of all tree sides of the both triangles,

so we can use SSS to check if the triangles are similar.

|ED|/|AB| =5/10=1/2

|DC|/|BC| = 4/8 = 1/2

|EC|/|AC| = 6/12 = 1/2

We see that all tree pairs are in proportion, so these triangles ΔABC and ΔEDC are similar.

We have enough information to prove that ΔABC similar to ΔEDC.
