Answer:

Option d. 4, 8, 10

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The<u> Triangle Inequality Theorem</u> states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side

<u><em>Verify each case</em></u>

case a) we have

15, 9, 3

Applying the triangle Inequality Theorem

1) 15+9 > 3

24> 3 ------> is true

2) 15+3 > 9

18 > 9 ----> is true

3) 9+3 > 15

12 > 15  ----> is not true

therefore

The set of lengths cannot be used to form the sides of a triangle

case b) we have

6,12,19

Applying the triangle Inequality Theorem

1) 6+12 > 19

18> 19 ------> is not true

therefore

The set of lengths cannot be used to form the sides of a triangle

case c) we have

11,6,3

Applying the triangle Inequality Theorem

1) 11+6 > 3

17> 3 ------> is true

2) 11+3 > 6

14 > 6 ----> is true

3) 6+3 > 11

9 > 11  ----> is not true

therefore

The set of lengths cannot be used to form the sides of a triangle

case d) we have

4,8,10

Applying the triangle Inequality Theorem

1) 4+8 > 10

12> 10 ------> is true

2) 4+10 > 8

14 > 8 ----> is true

3) 8+10 > 4

18 > 4  ----> is true

therefore

The set of lengths can be used to form the sides of a triangle

The image of triangle CDE after a rotation of 90º counterclockwise around the origin is graphed at the end of the answer.

<h3>What is a rotation?</h3>

When a polygon undergoes a rotation, this rotation is over an angle measure, that defines the coordinate rule for each vertex of the polygon.

For triangle CDE, the vertices are given as follows:

D(-7,-1), C(-7,-7), E(-4,-8).

The rule for a rotation of 90º counterclockwise around the origin, for each vertex (x,y) of the polygon, is given by:

(x,y) -> (-y,x).

Hence, applying the rule above, the vertices of the image of triangle CDE will be given as follows:

D'(1,-7), C'(7,-7), E'(8,-4).

The triangle, with these vertices labeled, is graphed at the end of the answer.

Pleaaasseee help!!! BRAINLIEST FOR CORRECT ANSWER!! What is the transformation rule for a translation 3 units right?
garri49 [273]

Answer:

Rule: replace x by x - a where a is the number of units that you want to move right. a must be greater than 0. x - - a  would move left.

Step-by-step explanation:

You want f(x) to move 3 units to the right.

That would mean that  x would be replaced by x - 3.  Just to be sure let's try it.

  • Suppose you have f(x) = x^2 + 6x + 5       It is graphed as the red line
  • Now suppose you want to move 3 units right.
  • It would replaced like f(x - 3) = (x - 3)^2 + 6(x - 3) + 5 which is the blue line
  • Notice nothing else is changed. The blue line looks exactly like the red line except that it is shifted 3 units to the right.
