Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles with the same shape but different size are proportional. Proportional means that their side lengths form equal ratios. To solve for x, set up a proportion.

The ratios we will create will be $\frac{long}{short} =\frac{long}{short}$ where each long and short are corresponding sides from each triangle.

So write:

$\frac{4}{x} =\frac{3}{2.25}$

To solve, cross multiply numerator with denominator.

4(2.25) = 3(x)

9 = 3x

3 =x

Triangle NMO has vertices at N(−5, 2), M(−2, 1), O(−3 , 3). Determine the vertices of image N′M′O′ if the preimage is reflected

Firdavs [7]

Notice that the reflection is over a line of the form x=constant; in this case, the y-coordinate of the reflected point stays the same while the x-coordinate changes as expressed by the transformation below

$\begin{gathered} y\rightarrow y \\ x\rightarrow2a+x \\ where \\ x=a\rightarrow\text{ vertical line} \end{gathered}$

Hence, in our case

$\Rightarrow(x,y)=(2*-4-x,y)=(-8-x,y)$

Transform points N, M, and O accordingly,

$\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow N^{\prime}=(-8-(-5),2)=(-8+5,2)=(-3,2) \\ \Rightarrow M^{\prime}=(-8-(-2),1)=(-6,1) \\ \Rightarrow O^{\prime}=(-8-(-3),3)=(-5,3) \end{gathered}$ <h2>Therefore, the answer is the first option (top to bottom)</h2>
