Answer:
a. 4
b. 1/4
c. 16
d. 1/9
e. 4/9
f. 9/16
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the areas is the square of the ratio of the lengths of the sides.
a. Triangles G and F
Select a side in triangle G and the corresponding side in triangle F:
side in F: 10
corresponding side in G: 5
ratio of lengths of F to G = 10/5 = 2
ratio of areas of G to F: (2)^2 = 4
b. Triangles G and B
Select a side in triangle G and the corresponding side in triangle B:
side in G: 5
corresponding side in B: 5/2
ratio of lengths of B to G = (5/2)/5 = 1/2
ratio of areas of B to G: (1/2)^2 = 1/4
c. Triangles B and F
Select a side in triangle B and the corresponding side in triangle F:
side in B: 5/2
corresponding side in F: 10
ratio of lengths of F to B = 10/(5/2) = 4
ratio of areas of F to B: (4)^2 = 16
Do the same for the other 3 pairs of triangles.
The answers are:
d. 1/9
e. 4/9
f. 9/16
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x)= -16x² + 72x + 80
Plug 2 in to check if it's correct.
g(2)= -16(2)² + 72(2) + 80
-16(4)+128+80
-72+128+80
= 136
<em>Question:</em>
<em>Triangles PQR and RST are similar right triangles. Which proportion can be used to show that the slope of PR is equal to the slope of RT?</em>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
See attachment for complete question
From the attachment, we have that:
First, we need to calculate the slope (m) of PQR
Here, we consider P and R
Where
becomes
--------- (1)
Next, we calculate the slope (m) of RST
Here, we consider R and T
Where
becomes
---------- (2)
Next, we equate (1) and (2)
<em>From the list of given options (see attachment), option A answers the question</em>
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that the sum of the (3) interior angles of a triangle <em>must</em> equate to 180.
In other words:
Where x is our unknown angle. So, we need to solve for x.
On the left, add 55 and 20:
Subtract 75 from both sides. The left side cancels:
Therefore, the third angle is 105 degrees.
Our answer is C.
I split it into parts. The small rectangle sticking out is 2x3 which is a 6 and the big rectangle 4x8 which is 32. The triangle is 8x2/2 which is 8. 6+32+8 = 46
