<u>ANSWER: </u>

After changing the side lengths of the triangle are decreased by scale factor of 3, the perimeter of triangle also decreased by 3

<u>SOLUTION:</u>

Given, the side lengths of a triangle are decreased by a scale factor of 3.

Let the side lengths of the given triangle be a, b, c.

After the side lengths are decreased by a scale factor of 3.

Now, the side lengths will become  \frac{a}{3} , \frac{b}{3} , \frac{c}{3}

Before changing the side lengths, perimeter of the triangle is p =  a + b + c.

After changing the side lengths, perimeter of the triangle is \frac{a}{3}+\frac{b}{3}+\frac{c}{3}

=\frac{a+b+c}{3}

=\frac{p}{3}

So, the perimeter is also decreased by the scale factor of 3.

Hence, after changing the side lengths of the triangle are decreased by scale factor of 3, the perimeter of triangle also decreased by 3.

39-50 find the limit.<br> 41. <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Clim%20_%7Bt%20%5Crightarrow%200%7D%20%5Cfrac%7B%5Ctan%206%20t
Katyanochek1 [597]

Write tan in terms of sin and cos.

\displaystyle \lim_{t\to0}\frac{\tan(6t)}{\sin(2t)} = \lim_{t\to0}\frac{\sin(6t)}{\sin(2t)\cos(6t)}

Recall that

\displaystyle \lim_{x\to0}\frac{\sin(x)}x = 1

Rewrite and expand the given limand as the product

\displaystyle \lim_{t\to0}\frac{\sin(6t)}{\sin(2t)\cos(6t)} = \lim_{t\to0} \frac{\sin(6t)}{6t} \times \frac{2t}{\sin(2t)} \times \frac{6t}{2t\cos(6t)} \\\\ = \left(\lim_{t\to0} \frac{\sin(6t)}{6t}\right) \times \left(\lim_{t\to0}\frac{2t}{\sin(2t)}\right) \times \left(\lim_{t\to0}\frac{3}{\cos(6t)}\right)

Then using the known limit above, it follows that

\displaystyle \left(\lim_{t\to0} \frac{\sin(6t)}{6t}\right) \times \left(\lim_{t\to0}\frac{2t}{\sin(2t)}\right) \times \left(\lim_{t\to0}\frac{3}{\cos(6t)}\right) = 1 \times 1 \times \frac3{\cos(0)} = \boxed{3}
