Answer:

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional.

It is given that triangle LMN is similar to triangle PQR. It means

\frac{LM}{PQ}=\frac{MN}{QR}=\frac{LN}{PR}

The length of sides of triangle PQR: 3 cm, 4 cm, 5 cm.

\frac{8}{3}\neq \frac{15}{4}

Option A is incorrect.

\frac{9}{3}=\frac{12}{4}=\frac{15}{5}=3

Therefore the correct option is B.

\frac{6}{3}\neq \frac{7}{4}

Option C is incorrect.

\frac{2}{3}\neq \frac{3}{4}

Option D is incorrect.

Which construction can you use to prove the Pythagorean Theorem based on similarity of triangles?
Rashid [163]

The construction that you can use to prove the Pythagorean Theorem based on similarity of triangles is 2nd construction. Please see the attached file.

 

To add, in mathematics, the Pythagorean theorem, also known as Pythagoras's theorem, is a fundamental relation in Euclidean geometry among the three sides of a right triangle. It mentions that the sum of the squares of the other two sides is equal to the square of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle).

You work two jobs. You earn $14.64 per hour as a salesperson and $12.20 per hour stocking shelves. Your combined earnings this m
Igoryamba

I'm assuming you have to graph a line that shows the combination of earnings.

Our equation is 14.64y + 12.20x = 219.60

We'll be solving for x and y. We'll need to substitute the variables, one at a time, to 0, in order to find their intercepts.

Let's do x first.

14.64(0) + 12.20x = 219.60

12.20x = 219.60

Divide by 12.20 on both sides.

x = 18

Now let's solve for y.

14.46y + 12.20(0) = 219.60

14.46y = 219.60

Divide both sides by 14.46.

y = 15.18

That is actually a long decmal, but since we're dealing with money, we round it down to the nearest cent.

So, now we know x = 18 and y = 15.18.

Graph those on the x coordinate plane and the y coordinate plane, and make a line connecting the two. That line represents all the solutions.
