What is the scale factor of triangle ABC to DEF ?
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:  The correct option is (A). 3.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the scale factor of dilation from ΔABC to ΔDEF.

As shown in the figure, the lengths of the sides of ΔABC to ΔDEF are

AB = 5 units, BC = 4 units, CA = 3 units,

DE = 15 units, EF = 12 units, FD = 9 units.

We know that the scale factor is given by

S=\dfrac{\textup{length of a side of the dilated figure}}{\textup{length of the corresponding side of the original figure}}.

Therefore, the scale factor of dilation from from ΔABC to ΔDEF is

S=\dfrac{DE}{AB}=\dfrac{15}{5}=3.

Thus, the required scale factor is 3.

Option (A) is correct.

The interior angles of a triangle have measures k°, 27°, and 10°. What is the value of k? Enter your answer in the box.
Triss [41]
To find the measure of the third angle you should keep in mind the following:
 The sum of the three interior angles of a triangle is 180 °.
 We have then
 k + 27 + 10 = 180
 Clearing k:
 k = 180-27-10 = 143
 K = 143 °
 Answer:
 the value of k is 143 °

If triangle PQR is similar to SQT, find the value of
ankoles [38]

Answer:

x = 31.4

PQ = 58.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion:

SQ/QP = ST/PR

Substitute in the values they give you:

\frac{x-9}{x-9+x+5}  = \frac{8}{21}

\frac{x - 9}{2x - 4} = \frac{8}{21}

21x - 189 = 16x - 32\\5x = 157\\x = 31.4

This means that PQ = 2x - 4 = 2(31.4) - 4 = 62.8-4 = 58.8
