Find the translation rule and the scale factor of the dilation that transforms Ol to Ol'.
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

  C  (x, y) -> (x + 7, y + 8); scale factor = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The translation can be found by subtracting the coordinates of the original center from those of the center of the image. The scale factor will be the ratio of the radii.

__

<h3>translation</h3>

We note the center coordinates are I(-3, -6) and I'(4, 2). Then the translation is ...

  I' -I = (4, 2) -(-3, -6) = (4 +3, 2 +6) = (7, 8)

  (x, y) ⇒ (x +7, y +8)

<h3>scale factor</h3>

The radius of each circle can be found by counting the grid squares from the center to the circle. It works best to do this along a horizontal or vertical line.

The radius of circle I is 2; the radius of circle I' is 6. The scale factor is ...

  scale factor = 6/2 = 3

sveticcg [70]
1 yard=36".
25 yeards = 25*36" = 900"
3 rolls = 3*900 =  2700"
Each piece must be 22" long, so the number of pieces
= 2700/22 = 122 pieces (2684") with 16" left over.

How does the pythagorean theorem work on a right triangle .
insens350 [35]

Answer:

just read my step-by-step

Step-by-step explanation:

Image result for how does the pythagorean theorem work on a right triangle

The Pythagorean Theorem can also be represented in terms of area. In any right triangle, the area of the square drawn from the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares that are drawn from the two legs. You can see this illustrated below in the same 3-4-5 right triangle.
