Answer:
a) The mass is released at t = 0 when h is minimum. Half a cycle later h reaches its maximum and another half a cycle it reaches its minimum again. Hence over one cycle, h varies with t as follows:
b) According to the graph obtained in part a), h(t) could be modeled by a cosine function shifted (translated) vertically up and horizontally to the right. Hence
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
To find the scale factor for a dilation, we find the center point of dilation and measure the distance from this center point to a point on the preimage and also the distance from the center point to a point on the image.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming this is in degrees, it is actually 0.
There are infinitely many ways to do this. One such way is to draw a very thin stretched out rectangle (say one that is very tall) and a square. Example: the rectangle is 100 by 2, while the square is 4 by 4.
Both the rectangle and the square have the same corresponding angle measures. All angles are 90 degrees.
However, the figures are not similar. You cannot scale the rectangle to have it line up with the square. The proportions of the sides do not lead to the same ratio
100/4 = 25
2/4 = 0.5
so 100/4 = 2/4 is not a true equation. This numerically proves the figures are not similar.
side note: if you are working with triangles, then all you need are two pairs of congruent corresponding angles. If you have more than three sides for the polygon, then you'll need to confirm the sides are in proportion along with the angles being congruent as well.
