Which fact is not used to prove that XYZ is similar to VYW

Mathematics
1 answer:
abruzzese [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: The correct answer is: C) X, V and Y are collinear points.

Explanation: Three points being collinear does not do much in a similarity proof.

In order to prove similarity, we want to prove that all of the angles of one triangle are congruent to all of the angles of the other triangle.

The reflexive property showing an angle is congruent to itself helps do this.

The Corresponding Angles Postulate helps to prove angles are congruent.

A transversal can help prove angle congruence.

Collinear points will prove that angles sum to 180°, which will not help us prove similarity between triangles.

What are the solutions to the equation |x – 10| – 4 = 2x?
Yuliya22 [10]

|x – 10| – 4 = 2x

x - 10 - 4 = 2x

x - 14 = 2x

x - 2x = 14

-x = 14

x = -14

Account A and Account B both have a principal of $2,000 and an annual interest rate of 2%. No additional deposits or withdrawals
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Account B earns more interest.

After 20 years, account B will have earned $171.89 more.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's calculate the total for each account.

Account A:

Account A earns simple interest. We know that the principal value is $2000 and the interest rate is 2% or 0.02. We can use the simple interest formula:

A=P(1+rt)

Where A is the future value, P is the principal, r is the rate, and t is the time in years.

So, let's substitute 2000 for P, 0.02 for r, and 20 for t. This yields:

A=2000(1+0.02(20))

Multiply and add:

A=2000(1+0.4)=2000(1.4)

Multiply. So, the total amount of money in Account A after 20 years is:

A=\$2800

Since we initially deposited $2000 and our total is now $2800, this means that we earned an interest of 2800-2000=\$ 800

Account B:

Account B earns compound interest. Like Account A, Account B has a principal value of $2000 and the interest rate is 2% or 0.02. We also know that it's compounded annually, so once per year. We can use the compound interest formula:

B=P(1+\frac{r}{n}})^{nt}

Where B is the future value, P is the principal, r is the rate, n is the times compounded per year, and t is the time in years.

So, let's substitute 2000 for P, 0.02 for r, n for 1 (since it's compounded annually), and t for 20. This yields:

B=2000(1+\frac{0.02}{1})^{(1)(20)}

Simplify this to acquire:

B=2000(1.02)^{20}

Evaluate. Use a calculator. So, after 20 years, the amount of money in Account B is:

B\approx\$2971.89

Since our principal was $2000, this means that we earned an interest of approximately  2971.89-2000=\$ 971.89.

So, Account A earned an interest of $800 and Account B earned an approximate interest of $971.89.

So, Account B earned more interest.

And it earned 971.89-800=\$ 171.89 more than Account A.

And we're done!

Solve sec2theta + tantheta - 3 =0 for 0
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Ф = \frac{\pi }{4} ,\frac{5\pi}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a bit difficult to input the work here, so I uploaded an image

  • First we can use the trig identities to change sec²(Ф) to tan²(Ф) + 1
  • Then we can combine like terms
  • Then we can factor this as a polynomial function
  • Then we can set each term equal to zero and solve for Ф
  • The first term tan(Ф) - 2 = 0 has no solution because tan(Ф) ≠ -2 anywhere
  • The second term tan(Ф) - 1 = 0 has two solutions of \frac{\pi}{4} and \frac{5\pi}{4} so these are the solutions to the problem
