Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles are similar if they have the same shape, but not necessarily the same size.

in this case we have

JK/MO = KL/ON = JL/MN

A) Use properties of similar triangles.

The measurement of angle J can be derived from triangle MNO.

Corresponding angle are congruent.

Angle J in triangle JKL correspond with angle M in triangle MNO.

Therefore:

Tangent M = opp/adj

tanM = 2/1.5

tanM = 1.3

M = tan-¹ 1.3

M = 52.43

J = M = 52.43°

B) MO in △MNO corresponds to JK in △JKL

C) JK/MO = KL/ON = JL/MN

find JL using Pythagoras theorem

JL² = KL² + JK²

JL² = 4²+3²

JL = √(16+8)

JL = 5

JK/MO = KL/ON = JL/MN

= 3/1.5 = 4/2 = 5/2.5 = 2/1

Therefore the ratio of larger triangle to small triangle is 2:1

Identify the ordered pair that represents the vector from a(1,6) to b(2,-3) and the magnitude of ab
aliina [53]

Answer: magnitude ab = 9.06

Step-by-step explanation:

The vector coordinates will be represented with ( X , Y )

Magnitude of ab will be

ab^2 = (X2 -X1)^2 + (Y2 -Y1)^2

ab^2 = (2 -1)^2 + (-3 -6)^2

ab^2 = 1^2 + 9^2

ab^2 = 1 + 81

ab = 9.06

The rational expressionwrite this ratio in the form p(x) + x/(x - 2) Where is some x - 2
loris [4]

Answer:

\frac{2x^2+5x-14}{x-2}=(2x+9)+\frac{4}{x-2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given rational expression is,

\frac{2x^2+5x-14}{x-2}

x - 2) 2x² + 5x - 14(2x + 9

         <u>2x² - 4x</u>

                  9x - 14

                  <u>9x - 18</u>

                          4

Therefore, \frac{2x^2+5x-14}{x-2}=(2x+9)+\frac{4}{x-2} is the answer.

A regular decagon has 10 sides. How many reflectional symmetries does a regular decagon have?
lina2011 [118]

The rule for regular polygons are very easy. The number of reflectional symmetries is same as the number of sides. Regular polygons have all sides the same length and all angles same. Reflection symmetry means that you can fold the shape along that line and it will match up.

For this question, we want the number of reflectional symmetries of a regular decagon. Decagon is a 10 sided figure. Hence, the number of reflectional symmetries is 10.

There are 5 symmetry lines from one vertex to opposite vertex and 5 more symmetry lines form midpoint of one side to midpoint of opposite side.

In Terry's hometown, the probability of snow on Saturday is approximately 0.07. Which of the following
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability calculates the likelihood of an event occurring. The likelihood of the event occurring lies between 0 and 1. It is zero if the event does not occur and 1 if the event occurs.

For example, the probability that it would rain on Friday is between o and 1. If it rains, a value of one is attached to the event. If it doesn't a value of zero is attached to the event.

the probability it would snow is 0.07 or 7%. this is quite low. so, it is unlikely that it would snow

Your free ride to work ends in 14 days. So, maybe you need a car? How much can you afford to spend? Below is what's available at
garri49 [273]

Step-by-step explanation:

Kindly find attached a screenshot of the price list of some cars from motor 1 .com since you did not provide any in the question, and let us assume it is the same as what is available at a dealership near you.

From the list, since you don't have enough money in your account to buy a car, I will say you should get a 2017 Nissan Versa for $11,990

and 25% of  $11,990 is

(25/100)* 11,990

0.25* 11,990

$2997.5

So you can make a down payment of $2997.5

and pay the remainder of $8992.5 later
