Answer:

a) no

Step-by-step explanation:

-The diagrams can be said to be mathematically similar if the dimensions of their corresponding sides enlarge or reduce by the same factor.

-We therefore determine the enlargement factor for both the radius and height as below:

-Let k be the scale factor

$k_r=\frac{R}{r}\\\\=\frac{3.64}{2.6}\\\\=1.4\\\\k_h=\frac{H}{h}\\\\=\frac{10.192}{8.32}\\\\=1.225\\\\k_r\neq k_h$

Hence, the cylinders are not mathematically similar since the enlargment factors for the radius and height are not equal.

3. What are two ways that a vector can be represented?

Considering a vector $\vec{v}$ in some vector space $\mathbb R^n$ we have

$\vec{v} = \langle a,b\rangle$

This is the component form. I don't like that way. It is probably used in high school, but

$\vec{v} = \begin{pmatrix} a\\ b\\ \end{pmatrix}$

is preferable because the inner product on $\mathbb R^n$ is defined to be

$\langle a,b\rangle := \sum_{i = 1}^n a_i b_i$

You can also write it using linear form such as $\vec{v} = 2i+2j$

For this question, I think you meant

vectors

$\vec{u_1} = (-8, 12)$

$\vec{u_2} = (13, 15)$

Once

$\cos(\theta)=\dfrac{\vec{u_1} \cdot\vec{u_2}}{||\vec{u_1}||||\vec{u_2}||}$

Considering that the dot product is

$\vec{u_1}\cdot \vec{u_2} = (-8)\cdot 13 + 12\cdot 15 = -104+180= 76$

and the norm of $\vec{u_1}$ is $||\vec{u_1}|| = \sqrt{(-8)^2 + 12^2} = \sqrt{64 + 144}= \sqrt{208}$

and the norm of $\vec{u_2}$ is $||\vec{u_2}|| = \sqrt{13^2 + 15^2} = \sqrt{169 + 225}= \sqrt{394}$

Thus,

$\cos(\theta)=\dfrac{76}{\sqrt{208} \sqrt{394}} = \dfrac{19}{\sqrt{13}\sqrt{394}}=\dfrac{19}{\sqrt{5122}}$

$\therefore \theta = \arccos \left(\dfrac{19}{\sqrt{5122}} \right)$

the expression 4X gives the perimeter of a square with a side length of X units. what is the perimeter of a square with a side l

Wewaii [24]

With the equation 4x, the x represents side length. Since we are given side length of 5/7, then the equation becomes

perimeter = 4 × 5/7
p= 20/7
p= 2 6/7 units

If angle 1 and angle 2 are supplementary angles, and angle 3 and angle 2 are supplementary angles, what do you know about angle

dusya [7]

Answer:

angle 1 and angle 3 are congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles supplementary to the same angle are congruent. Here both angles 1 and 3 are supplementary to angle 2, so angles 1 and 3 are congruent.

_____

If you like, you can get there algebraically:

m∠1 + m∠2 = 180

m∠3 + m∠2 = 180

Subtract the second equation from the first:

(m∠1 + m∠2) - (m∠3 + m∠2) = (180) - (180)

m∠1 -m∠3 = 0 . . . . simplify

m∠1 = m∠3 . . . . . . add m∠3

When angle measures are the same, the angles are congruent.

∠1 ≅ ∠3
