Answer:

h = 3.62

Step-by-step explanation:

First, as both triangles have the same angles we can use the relationship of areas and sides corresponding to similar triangles as follows:

relation\ between\ areas=( relation\ between\ sides)^2\\\frac{0.7A}{A}=(\frac{s}{5})^2\\s= 5\sqrt0.7= 4.18

Now we know that the new triangle has sides of 4.18. Then, as these triangles are equilateral we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the height:

4.18^2=h^2+(\frac{4.18}{2})^2\\h=\sqrt (4.18^2-2.09^2)=3.62 m\\h= 3.62

Finally the height of this new triangle is 3.62 cm

Which of the sets of ordered pairs represents a function?
sergey [27]

Answer:

Both A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

A set of ordered pairs is not a function if there is a repeating output (Y value.)

Y values of A= 5, 2, -2, -5.

Y values of B= 2, -2, 4, -3.

There are no repeating outputs.
