Answer:

  r = -0.1125

Step-by-step explanation:

It works well to subtract 0.5 and convert the percentage to a decimal. You can find the sum by hand or using a calculator.

  r = -0.5 +0.0025 -0.125 +0.51

  r = -0.1125

_____

<em>Comment on the use of a calculator</em>

Many calculators assume that a percentage is to be multiplied by something. If you type this expression into the Google calculator, it will take the % symbol to be an indicator that modulo arithmetic is desired. (It will compute .25 mod -.125 = 0.) So, you need to be aware of how your calculator handles "%". It may be best to do the conversion to decimal before you present the problem to a calculator.

Given that ΔPQR is similar to ΔPTS, which statement MUST be true? A) m∠PST = m∠QPR B) m∠TPS = m∠RPQ C) m∠SPT = m∠PTS D) m∠PRQ =
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer: B) m∠TPS = m∠RPQ


Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ΔPQR is similar to ΔPTS

We know that of two triangles are similar then their corresponding angles are equal in measure and corresponding sides are proportional.

Therefore, If ΔPQR is similar to ΔPTS, then

m∠TPS=m∠RPQ

m∠STP=m∠RQP

m∠PTS=m∠PQR

Therefore, from the given options, only B is the right options, i.e. m∠TPS = m∠RPQ
