Answer : 7 units

There are two ways you can solve this problem:

1st way - Subtract the T's x coordinate by r's x coordinate.

1-(-6) = 1+6 = 7

2nd way - Graph the points than count the units between them.

Answer:

The length of Side RT of the polygon is 7\ units


Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to


d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}


we have

R(-6,2)\\T(1,2)  

substitute the values


d=\sqrt{(2-2)^{2}+(1+6)^{2}}


d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(7)^{2}}


dRT=7\ units

Answer:

To construct a dilation, we need the center of dilation, which is the point from which we make the image smaller or larger. We also need a scale factor, which is the number that determines how large or small we are making the new image. If the scale factor is greater than 1, we have an enlargement, because the new image will be larger than the original image. If the scale factor is less than 1, we have a reduction because the new image will be smaller than the original image.

Enlargement

Step-1

Let's dilate triangle PQR by a scale factor of 2 with a center of dilation at point C.

Step-2

First, we will use a straightedge to connect the center of dilation C to each vertex. We are going to extend those lines across the whole page.

Step-3

Next, we'll place the point of the compass on the center of dilation C and the pencil on vertex Q and measure that distance.

Step-4

Now, without changing the size of the compass, we will move the point of the compass to vertex Q, and make a mark on the line that is extended through Q.

Step-5

Notice that since we measured the distance from C to Q and then used that same distance to mark the line, we have now created a new point that is twice the distance from C that Q was.

We now repeat the process for each of the other vertices of the triangle.

Step-6

These marks represent the vertices of our dilated image. We often use the same letters with an apostrophe to show that it is the corresponding vertex.

Step-7

Finally, we use the straightedge to connect all of the new vertices.

Now,See how triangle P

′

Q

′

R

′

is twice the size of the original triangle.

Reduction

Step-1

Given triangle PQR, now let's dilate the image with a center of dilation at C and with a scale factor of

2

1

Step-2

Using the straightedge, we will connect all of the vertices to the center of dilation C. In this case, since our scale factor is less than 1, we are reducing the size of the triangle.

Step-3

The green lines are the new lines that we have drawn.

Since we have to reduce the size of the triangle by half, we want to cut the distance in half from each vertex to the center of dilation. In order to do this, we will set our compass to a distance that is more than halfway between vertex P and point C but less than the total distance.

Step-4

Keeping the compass at that same distance, start with the point of the compass on vertex P, then draw a curve that intersects the line between P and C. Next, keeping the compass at the same distance, place the point of the compass on C and draw a curve that intersects the line between P and C and intersects the previously drawn curve.

Step-5

Now, we will take the straightedge and connect the points where the curves overlap.

A rectangular container has a base that is 12 inches long and 8 inches wide. The container is filled with water to a height of 6
valina [46]

Answer: the length of one edge of the square base of the second container is 6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the volume of a rectangular container is expressed as

Volume = length × width × height

Considering the first container,

Length = 12 inches

Width = 8 inches

Height to which the water is filled is 6 inches.

Therefore, volume of water in the container is

12 × 8 × 6 = 576 inches³

Considering the second container,

Height of water = 16 inches

Let L represent the length of the square base. Then the area of the square base is L²

Volume of water would be 16L²

Since the water in the first container was poured into the second container, then

16L² = 576

L² = 576/16 = 36

L = √36

L = 6 inches
