Answer:

option 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 triangles are similar then corresponding angles are congruent.

Calculate the missing angles in both triangles.

∠ A = 180° - (90 + 35)° = 180° - 125° = 55°

∠ L = 180° - (90 + 55)° = 180° - 145° = 35°

Consider ACB ~ MNL , comparing corresponding angles

∠ A= 55° and ∠ M = 90° ← not congruent

Consider ABC ~ LMN, comparing corresponding angles

∠ A = 55° and ∠ L = 35° ← not congruent

Consider CBA ~ LMN , comparing corresponding angles

∠ C = 35° and ∠ L = 35° ← congruent

∠ B = 90° and ∠ M = 90° ← congruent

∠ A = 55° and ∠ N = 55° ← congruent

The correct similarity statement is

CBA ~ LMN

Answer:  C) CBA ≅ LMN

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Match up the congruent angles:

∠C = 35°, ∠L = 90° - 55° = 35°     --> ∠C ≡ ∠L

∠B = 90°, ∠M = 90°                     -->  ∠B ≡ ∠M

∠A = 90° - 35° = 55°, ∠N = 55°    --> ∠A ≡ ∠N

The similarity statement can be written in any order as long as the congruent angles are in the same placement (1st, 2nd, or 3rd).

ΔABC ≅ ΔNML

ΔBCA ≅ ΔMLN

ΔCAB ≅ ΔLNM

ΔCBA ≅ ΔLMN

ΔACB ≅ ΔNLM

ΔBAC ≅ΔMNL

Any of these similarity statements can be used!

What is the equation of a line perpendicularto y=-2/5x-1 that passes through(2,-8)​
Andrews [41]
<h2>Answer: y =  ⁵/₂ x - 13   OR  y + 8 =  ⁵/₂ x - 5 </h2>

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

<u>Find the slope of the perpendicular line</u>

When two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1. This means that the slopes are <em>negative-reciprocal</em>s of each other.

⇒  if the slope of this line = - ²/₅

      then the slope of the perpendicular line (m) = ⁵/₂

<u>Determine the equation</u>

We can now use the point-slope form (y - y₁) = m(x - x₁)) to write the equation for this line:

                                ⇒  y - (-8) =  ⁵/₂ (x - 2)

                                   ∴  y + 8 = ⁵/₂ (x - 2)

We can also write the equation in the slope-intercept form by making y the subject of the equation and expanding the bracket to simplify:

                  since   y + 8 =  ⁵/₂ (x - 2)

                                    y =  ⁵/₂ x - 13

Math<br><br><br> is my answer correct??<br><br><br> pls check!
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Domain: (-2 , 3]

Range: [-3, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain is all the x's on the graph. (If you have an equation, then it's all the numbers that are allowed to be x)

Range is all the y's on the graph (or if you have an equation, all the possible y outcomes)

Open dot endpoint means that point is not included in the set (domain and range are sets of numbers) Closed dot means the point is included.

You didn't get this math question right. But look for all the x's for the domain, and all the y's for the range.

The change in the value of a stock is represented by the rational number -5.90 describe in words what this means
xxMikexx [17]

We are given : A stock is represented by -5.90.

The given number is a negative number.

Note: When a stock is given by a negative number, it represents the decrease in stock and when a stock is given by a positive number, it represents the increase in stock.

As we are given number is a negative number, we can just say that

" The stock value is being decrease by 5.90".
