Answer:
4.DH
Step-by-step explanation:
let's assume the point P to be the point that X will be after it is dilated.
we know that after dilation the length of PM should be two two times the length of XY
PM = 2.XY ===> = 2
and from proportionality theorem we now that:
=
= 2
So we know XY should be half the size of MP and we can see the only line matching is DH thus the answer is DH

Answer:
43.94?
Step-by-step explanation:
I think if you use inverse cos you should get the correct number. So, to find cos, you need to know the adjacent side and the hypotenuse. Here, the reference angle would be the person holding the kite. The distance from the person to the barn is the adjacent side, which is 18. The string of the kite, I assume, would be 25.
cos(∅) =
cos(∅) = 0.72
cos⁻¹(0.72) = 43.94
I don't know if that's what you're looking for, but... If it's not correct, lmk so I can rewrite it. :)
