Find the coordinates of the image of a triangle with vertices. Need help.
ad-work [718]
ANSWER

D. A'(-5,0), B'(0,9) and (2,6)

EXPLANATION

The coordinates of triangle ABC are A(0,-5), B(-9,0) and C(-6,2).

A rotation of 90° clockwise about the origin has the mapping,

(x,y)\to (y,-x)

Therefore the image triangle has vertices

A'(-5,0), B'(0,9) and C'(2,6)

The correct choice is D.

Two brothers want to share a large field equally.
Elan Coil [88]

Yes, the partition gives the two brothers equal shares.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Assume the entire field has an area of B. So one brother takes \frac{1}{12} B, \frac{1}{6}B, and \frac{1}{4} B

So we need to calculate how much this brother takes in terms of B.

To do this we calculate how much \frac{1}{12} B + \frac{1}{6} B + \frac{1}{4} B is.

Step 2:

To add \frac{1}{12} B + \frac{1}{6} B + \frac{1}{4} B,

First take the LCM of the denominators 12, 6, and 4

The LCM is 12, we multiply the denominator to get the LCM value, this same value is multiplied to the numerator too.

\frac{1}{12} B + \frac{1}{6} B + \frac{1}{4} B = \frac{1(1)}{12(1)} B + \frac{1(2)}{6(2)} B + \frac{1(3)}{4(3)} B \\\\\frac{1}{12} B + \frac{1}{6} B + \frac{1}{4} B= \frac{1B +2B+3B}{12} = \frac{B}{2}

Step 3:

One brother gets \frac{1}{2} B, so we need to calculate how much the other brother gets.

The other brother's share = B - \frac{1}{2} B = \frac{1}{2}B

So both the brothers get equal shares

Right triangle ABC is on a coordinate plane. Segment AB is on the line y = 2 and is 3 units long.Point C is on the line x = -1.
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 1/2( base times height)

since the height is perpendicular to the base

therefore

6 = 1/2(3) h

12 =3h

4=h

4 units away from the y=2 line is at the y coordinate of 6
