Otrada [13]3 years ago
7 0

Answers:

A. True

B. True

C. True

D. False

E. True

In short, only answer choice D is false. Everything else is true.

=================================

Explanations:

A. The ordering of FGH and LMN is important. This is because F and L pair up as the first letters of the triple letter sequences, so do G and M as the second letters. Segment FG pairs up with LM because we're talking about the first two letters of both sequences. At the same time, FH and LN pair up because they are composed of the first and third letters of FGH and LMN respectively. Due to the triangles being similar, we can say FG/LM = FH/LN, ie we have a proportion.

------------------

B. Segment LN is proportional to FH, as explained back in part A. For example, FH could be 10 times longer than LN, making FH = 10*LN. Once the scale factor is set, you must use it for the other pairs of sides as well.

------------------

C. Similar triangles have corresponding angles that are congruent. This means F = L, G = M and H = N. Dividing the measure of F over the measure of L leads to 1 (regardless of what the angles happen to be) due to the rule x/x = 1, where x is nonzero. The same thing happens with dividing the measures of angle G over angle M. We get 1 on both sides after simplifying this given equation, so it is a true equation.

-----------------

D. Similar triangles are not congruent, so their corresponding side lengths are not congruent either.

-----------------

E. As explained back in part C, the corresponding angles are congruent because we know the triangles to be similar. The ordering of the letters matter. Angles H and N are the third letters of FGH and LMN respectively, which is why they pair up and are congruent.

Someone please tell formula
ivolga24 [154]

<u>Answer:</u>

(i) Total cost of the flat is Rs. 540000.

(ii) Expenditure incurred on labour is Rs. 150000

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

According to the question, cement cost is Rs. 112500, which represents 75° in the pie chart.

(i) The total cost of the flat is represented by the total 360° in the pie chart.

∴ Using unitary method

75° represents Rs. 112500

⇒ 360° represents = \frac{112500}{75}  ×  360

                                = Rs. 540000

∴  Total cost of flat = Rs. 540000

(ii) Similarly, to calculate the cost of labour, represented by 100° in the pie chart, we can use the unitary method:

75° represents Rs. 112500

⇒ 100° represents =  \frac{112500}{75}  ×  100

                               = Rs. 150000

∴ Cost of labour = Rs. 150000

The graph below displays the wrist circumferences and heights of six students in Alyssa’s classroom.
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Option D(No because the wrist circumference of 16 cm is paired with two heights.


Step-by-step explanation:

In the given graph we have  set of points representing the wrist circumferences and heights of six students in Alyssa’s classroom.

x axis  represents the wrist circumference while  y axis represent the height.

Any relation is called a function if for one value of x we have only one value of y. If the graph passes the vertical line test that is if a vertical line drawn touches the graph at only one point then the graph is called a function.In the given graph for x value x=16 there are two y values 162 and 165.So the graph is not a function.

Among all the options Option D(No because the wrist circumference of 16 cm is paired with two heights.) is the right answer.

3 x a x 2 x b <br><br> What’s the answer guys
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

6ab.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 x a x 2 x b

= 3 x 2 x a x b      ( because multiplication is commutative, which basically means you can move the  numbers and variables anywhere in the expression).

= 6ab     ( we leave out the multiplication signs. They are understood.)
