Yes they are similar because one they're both 90 degree angles, and two if you divide 12÷8 it'll equal 1.5
Same thing with the other side. If you divide 36÷24 it'll equal 1.5
and this shows proof of similarity since its like half the sides, but they both have the same angles.
(Sides doesn't matter, its the angles)
Answer:
Rearrange the equations that result from use of the Pythagorean theorem.
Step-by-step explanation:
Transversal AB crossing parallel lines AD and BC makes supplementary interior same-side angles A and B. Since A = 90°, B must be 90°. The Pythagorean theorem then applies in the right triangles ABC and ABD.
We can use that theorem to write two expressions for AB^2:
BD^2 -AD^2 = AB^2 = AC^2 -BC^2
The middle expression, AB^2, isn't needed beyond this point. Adding (AD^2 -AC^2) to both sides of the equation gives the desired result:
BD^2 -AC^2 = AD^2 -BC^2
Where are the cubes???????.
16x² - 49
= (4x)² - 7²
Identity =》 a² - b² = (a + b) (a - b)
(4x)² - 7²
= (4x + 7) (4x - 7) [3rd option]
