Answer:

M'K' is the same length as MK.

Step-by-step explanation:

A reflection is a rigid transformation. Rigid transformations do not affect the length of the line segment

Answer:

Option C -M'K' is the same length as MK

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Line segment MK has endpoints at (2, 3) and (5,4)

               M'K' is the reflection of MK over the y-axis

By definition of reflection: reflection of point (x,y) across the the y-axis is the point (-x,y)

which implies M'K' has end points (-2,3) and (-5,4)

Now, we find the length of MK

let (x_1,y_1)=(2,3)\\\\(x_2,y_2)=(5,4)

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

⇒ d=\sqrt{(2-5)^2+(4-3)^2}

⇒d=\sqrt{9+1}

⇒d=\sqrt{10}   ....(1)

Now, we find the length of M'K'

let (x_1^{'},y_1^{'})=(-2,3)\\\\(x_2^{'},y_2^{'})=(-5,4)

d^{'}=\sqrt{(x_2^{'}-x_1^{'})^2+(y_2^{'}-y_1^{'})^2}

⇒ d^{'}=\sqrt{(-2+5)^2+(3-4)^2}

⇒d^{'}=\sqrt{9+1}

⇒d^{'}=\sqrt{10} .....(2)

from (1) and (2) we simply show that the length of MK and M'K' is equal

we can also refer the figure attached for reflection of MK and M'K'

therefore, Option C is correct

The designer sketched a model of the pond. The model drawing had a circumference of 24 inches. What is the AREA of the model she
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Area of model pond = 45.6 inch² (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Circumference of circular pond = 24 inches

Find:

Area of model pond

Computation:

Circumference of circle = 2πr

Circumference of circular pond = 2πr

24 = 2[22/7][r]

Radius r = [24 x 7] / [2 x 22]

Radius r = 3.81 inch (Approx.)

Area of circle = πr²

Area of model pond = πr²

Area of model pond = (22/7)(3.81)²

Area of model pond = [3.1428][14.5161]

Area of model pond = 45.6 inch² (Approx.)

X-3x+4=3-9 what is x?
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

x-3x can be simplied to -2x and 3-9 can be simplied to -6

-2x+4=-6

Substract 4 from both sides

-2x=-10

Divide both sides by -2

x=5
