We known that the figures are similar if and only if the corresponding sides and and angles have the common scale factor. In this item, the scale factor is 0.6. The length of AB is determined by multiplying the length of FG with the scale factor. That is,
AB = FG x scale factor
AB = (12 cm) x 0.6
AB = 7.2 cm
Thus, the length of side AB is 7.2 cm.

Describe the error in the work shown.
A small submarine starts at –1,260 feet in relation to sea level. Then it descends 5 feet per minute for 12 minutes. What is the new position of the submarine in relation to sea level?
–1,260 + (–5)(12) = –1,260 + 60
= –1,200

Step-by-step explanation:
We khow that the equation of a circle is written this way :
(x-a)²+(y-b)²=r² where (x,y) are the coordinates of the cercle's points and (a,b) the coordinates of the cercle's center and r the radius .
Our task is to khow the values of a and b :
- We khow that the center is lying on the line 3x+2y=16⇒ 2y=-3x+16⇒ y= x+8
- We khow that the points P and Q are two points in the cercle
- Let Ω be the center of this cercle
- we can notice that : PΩ AND QΩ are both equal to the radius ⇒ PΩ=QΩ= r
- So let's write the expression of this distance using vectors KHOWING THAT Ω(a,b)
- Vector PΩ(a-4,b-6) and Vector QΩ(a-8,b-2)
- PΩ= and QΩ=
- Let's substitute a by x and b by y
- PΩ=QΩ we substitute each distance by its expression
- After simplyfying the expressions we get finally : -12+8x-8y=0
- now we have -12x +8x-8y=0 and the line equation 3x+2y-16=0
- these are simultanious equations so after solving them we get x=3.8 wich is approximatively 4 and y=2
- we substitute a by 4 and y by 2 in PΩ to get the radius
- we get r = = 4
- so r²= 16
- then the equation is : (x-4)²+(y-2)²=16
