The figure has reflective symmetry about a line if that line divides the figure in two similar parts, which are reflections of one another.
Notice that the two figures formed when the shape is divided by line k are not similar, since one has 7 vertices and the other just 4.
Notice that the two figures formed when the shape is divided by line m are not similar, since one has 7 vertices and the other just 4.
The line l divides the figure in two shape, one is a trapezoid and the other isn't.
Only line n divides the figure in two similar shapes.
Therefore, the correct choice is B) n only.
C: 11.1 mi Just do 3.7*3 to get the answer which is from the scale 1:3.7.
0, 2, 3, 4, 6
my answer has to be 20 questions long
what's popping?
Because of the relatively large coefficients {9, 42, 49}, applying the quadratic formula would be a bit messy. Instead, I've chosen to "complete the square:"
9x^2 + 42x + 49 = 0 can be re-written as 9 [ x^2 + (42/9)x ] = -49
Dividing both sides by 9, we get [ x^2 + (42/9)x ] = - 49/9
Completing the square: [ x^2 + (42/9)x + (21/9)^2 - (21/9)^2 ] = -49/9
[ x + 21/9 ]^2 = 441/81 - 441/81 = 0
Then [ x + 21/9 ] = 0, and x = -21/9 (this is a double root).
Answer:
less than because of 2/5 being so small
