PLZ HELP ASAP SIMMILAR AND CONGRUENT TRIANGLES

Mathematics
1 answer:
Dvinal [7]3 years ago

LA=3.5; AY=7
LW=?

LW=LA+AW
AW=?

Let's analyze triangles LAY and YAW
1) Triangle LAY
Angle LAY is 90°
Suppose Angle ALY is x
The angle LYA is the complement of x, for example y:
x+y=90°→y=90°-x

2) Triangle YAW
Angle AYW is the complement of angle LAY (y), then the angle AYW must be equal to x.
Angle YAW is 90°, because the angle LAY is 90°

The triangles LAY and YAW are similars, because they have to congruent angles:
Angle LAY = 90° = Angle YAW
Angle ALY = x = Angle AYW
Then the sides of triangles LAY and YAW must be proportionals:
AW/AY=AY/LA
Replacing the known values:
AW/7=7/3.5
AW/7=2
Solving for AW. Multiplying both sides of the equation by 7:
7(AW/7)=7(2)
AW=14

Now:
LW=LA+AW
LW=3.5+14
LW=17.5

Answer: LW=17.5 units

A sequence of two transformations that can be used to show that polygon ABCDE is congruent to polygon GFJIH
Ket [755]

Answer:

Yes,they are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are required to make two transformations  and prove that they are congruent.

First Transformation:Now rotate the polygon FGHIJ by 90° about the axis parallel to x-axis and passinfg through the vertex I.You can observe that the sides are of same length AB=GF=2 units.

Second Transformation: Keeping the polygon ABCDE constant shift the centre of polygon FGHIJ to the centre of polygon ABCDE you will observe thta they exactly overlap on each other hence they are congruent with each other.

What is 8.154 to 1 decimal place?<br>​
ddd [48]
What is 8.154 rounded to 2 decimal places?" is the same as asking, "What is 8.154 rounded to two decimal points?" or "How to round 8.154 to two decimal places."

The main point is that you want to round 8.154 to two digits or places after the decimal point. Thus, we want to eliminate the last digit in 8.154. To eliminate the last digit in 8.154, we use the following Two Decimal Places Rules to get the answer:

Two Decimal Places Rule #1: If the last digit in 8.154 is less than 5, then remove the last digit.

Two Decimal Places Rule #2: If the last digit in 8.154 is 5 or more and the second to the last digit in 8.154 is less than 9, then remove the last digit and add 1 to the second to the last digit.
