Answer:

x = 25% percent decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem we will use percentage calculation and make proportion:

Initial value 56 points is worth 100%

Second value 56 - 42 = 14 points of decrease is worth x%

56 : 14 = 100 : x

When we multiply external and internal members we get:

56 · x = 14 · 100 => x = 1400/56 = 25%

x = 25% percent decrease

God with you!!!

Rotations preserve size, rotations of 360 map a figure to itself, and lines connecting the center of rotation to the pre-image and the corresponding point on the image have equal length.

The triangle will be rotated with the rule of (x,y) → (-y,x). The image will be congruent to the pre-image, the side lengths will be the same and the angles too.
