"c" is the hypotenuse of the largest triangle, and "a" is that triangle's shortest side. Thus the ratio is
... (longest side)/(shortest side)
Since all the triangles in the figure are similar, to complete the proportion, you need to recognize the triangle that "a" is the longest side of, then find the shortest side of that triangle.
"a" is the longest side (hypotenuse) of the smallest triangle. The shortest side of that triangle is "r". So, your proportion is ...
... c/a = a/r
The appropriate choice is the 2nd one, ...
... r
The answer would be theorem Side angle side (aka SAS)
Answer:
41.8
Step-by-step explanation:
The rectangles are similar by a factor of 10, so simply divide the measure by 10 to get the length of the smaller one.
Answer:
The intercepts of the third degree polynomial corresponds to the zeros of the equation
y = d*(x-a)*(x-b)(x-c)
Where a, b and c are the roots of the polynomial and d an adjustment coefficient.
y = d*(x+2)*(x)*(x-3)
Lets assume d = 1, and we get
y = (x+2)*(x)*(x-3) = x^3 - x^2 - 6x
We graph the equation in the attached file.
