Answer: 320 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the mas of the teapot be denoted by a

Let the mass of the cups be denoted by c

The question can be turned into an equation which will be:

a + 4c = 1280 ......... equation i

a + 10c = 2720 ........ equation ii

Subtract equation i from ii

6c = 1440

c = 1440/6

c = 240 grams

The mas of the cup is 240 grams

From equation i

a + 4c = 1280

a + 4(240) = 1280

a + 960 = 1280

a = 1280 - 960

a = 320 grams

The mass of the teapot is 320 grams

if you draw two right triangles using the line as the hypotenuse, do the triangles have to be similar? Why or why not?
diamong [38]

Answer:

All the right triangles will be similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached diagram.

Let us assume any two right triangles are drawn on the line OP, and AB and A'B' as the hypotenuse on the same line OP.

Since the slope of the line OP is constant and assume that it makes x° with the positive x-axis.

Hence, \tan x = \frac{AC}{BC} = \frac{A'C'}{B'C'}

⇒ \frac{AC}{A'C'} = \frac{BC}{B'C'}

Therefore, the sides of the two right triangles are in the same ratio and hence, Δ ABC and Δ A'B'C' are similar.

Hence, all the right triangles will be similar. (Answer)
