sveticcg [70]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

AA Similarity Postulate

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

step 1

Verify the proportion of the corresponding sides

\frac{PS}{PQ}=\frac{PT}{PR}

substitute

\frac{45}{20}=\frac{36}{16}

2.25=2.25 ----> is true

Corresponding sides are proportional

Triangle PQR is similar to Triangle PST

That means

Corresponding angles must be congruent

side QR is parallel side ST

and

m\angle PQR=m\angle PST ----> by corresponding angles

m\angle PRQ=m\angle PTS --> by corresponding angles

so

PQR is similar to PST by AA Similarity Postulate

-6x-14y=16 and -2x+7y=17 solve by elimination show the work
professor190 [17]

Answer:

(- 5, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

- 6x - 14y = 16 → (1)

- 2x + 7y = 17 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by - 3 and adding to (1) will eliminate the x- term

6x - 21y = - 51 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate x

0 - 35y = - 35

- 35y = - 35 ( divide both sides by - 35 )

y = 1

Substitute y = 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

- 6x - 14(1) = 16

- 6x - 14 = 16 ( add 14 to both sides )

- 6x = 30 ( divide both sides by - 6 )

x = - 5

solution is (- 5, 1 )
