Since all triangles in these questions are similar, we use that the ratios of corresponding sides are equal

(1)

\frac{y}{6} = \frac{9}{x} = \frac{5}{4}

solving \frac{9}{x} = \frac{5}{4} ( cross-multiply )

5x = 36 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = \frac{36}{5}

solving \frac{y}{6} = \frac{5}{4}

4y = 30 ⇒ y = \frac{15}{2}

(2)

let h be the height of the flagpole, then

\frac{h}{5.5} = \frac{50}{4}

4h = 275 ⇒ h = 68.75 feet

(3)

\frac{x}{6} = \frac{93.5}{12.75}

12.75x = 561 ⇒ x = 44 feet

Consider ΔWXY and ΔBCD with ∠X ≅∠C, WX ≅ BC, and WY ≅ BD.
LenKa [72]

Answer:- B. No, because the corresponding congruent angles listed are not the included angles.


Explanation:-

Given:- ΔWXY and ΔBCD with ∠X ≅∠C, WX ≅ BC, and WY ≅ BD.

Now, look at the attachment

We can see that ∠X and ∠C are not included angles by the corresponding equal sides.

⇒ We cannot use SAS postulate to show ΔWXY ≅ ΔBCD .

⇒ B is the right option.

SAS postulate tells the if two sides of a triangle and their included angle is equal to the two sides of a triangle and their included angle of another triangle then the two triangles are congruent.

A high school has 36 players on the football team. the summary of the players' weights is given in the box plot. what is the int
Komok [63]

The interquartile range of the players' weights = 48 pounds.

The boxplot attached to this question is missing. It was obtained online and is attached to this solution of the question.

It should be noted that the following is true for a boxplot.

A box plot gives a visual representation of the distribution of the data, showing where most values lie and those values that greatly differ from the rest, called outliers.

The elements of the box plot are described thus;

The bottom side of the box represents the first quartile, and the top side, the third quartile. Therefore, the width of the central box represents the inter-quartile range.

The horizontal line inside the box is the median.

The lines extending from the box reach out to the minimum and the maximum values in the data set, as long as these values are not outliers. The ends of the whiskers are marked by two shorter horizontal lines.

Variables in the dataset, higher than Q3+(1.5×IQR) or lower than Q1-(1.5×IQR) are considered outliers and are usually shown using dots above the top whisker or below the bottom whisker.

So, it is evident that for this question,

First quartile = 174 pounds

Third quartile = 222 pounds

Inter Quartile Range = (Third quartile) - (First quartile)

= 222 - 174

= 48 pounds.

Annette [7]
Sorry about my first answer then it would 20% because if you take 30 and divide 20% you'll get 6 so again sorry I was wrong 20 percent though is right.
