Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation represents the enlargement and compression of a figure. Whether it is an enlargement or compression, It totally depends on the scale factor.

If the absolute value of scale factor is more than 1, then it represents the enlargement and if the absolute value of scale factor is lies between 0 to 1, then it represents the compression.

Image and preimage are similar figures. It means the corresponding angles are congruent or corresponding sides are proportional.

It is given that LMN is dilated by a scale factor of 0.5.

LMN\sim L'M'N'

Since scale factor is lies between 0 to 1, therefore it shows the compression.

Therefore sides of L'M'N' is smaller than LMN.

Since corresponding angles of similar figure are congruent.

\angle LMN \cong \angle L'M'N'

So, options B, C and D represent the correct statements. Only option A represents a false statement because the sides of similar figure are proportional not congruent.

Therefore option A is correct.

How to solve 4n²-3n-7=0
almond37 [142]
4n^2-3n-7=0\\ \\ a=4, \ \ b=-3 \ \ c=-7\\ \\ \Delta = b^{2}-4ac = (-3)^{2}-4*4* (-7)= 9+112=121

x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta }}{2a} =\frac{ 3-\sqrt{ 121}}{2*4}=\frac{ 3-11}{8}= \frac{-8 }{ 8}=-1 \\ \\x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta }}{2a} =\frac{ 3+\sqrt{ 121}}{2*4}=\frac{ 3+11}{8}= \frac{14 }{ 8}= \frac{7}{4}=1\frac{3}{4}

Can anybody help pls
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

2t

Step-by-step explanation:

The expressions are not the same because different terms are negative. We can visualize the difference by rewriting the expressions as 13t + (-2t) and (-13t) + 2t. In the first expression, 13t-2t, the 2t is negative because it is being subtracted, and subtracting a number is the same as adding a negative.
