Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First simplify the first expression.

Distribute.

1/4(8y-12) = 1/4 * 8y + 1/4 * -12

8y * 1/4 = 8y / 4 = 2y

-12 * 1/4 = -12 / 4 = -3

1/4(8y-12) = 2y - 3

2y - 12 != 2y - 3

So it is not equivalent.

Answer:

z=-1

Are rectangles ABCD and WXYZ congruent? Why or why not? Yes, all right angles were preserved. Yes, both rectangles have an area

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

D. No, there is not a rigid transformation or a combination of rigid transformations that will map ABCD to WXYZ.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two figures are congruent if their vertices can be mapped into one another by appropriate rigid transformation or combination of rigid transformations. Examples of the transformation are; reflection, dilation, rotation and translation.

Comparing the two figures, it would be observed that they are not congruent. Since there is not a rigid transformation or a combination of rigid transformations that will map ABCD to WXYZ.

You find area by multiplying base and height.
The formula is A=bh
so 100=25h
25 times 4 is 100
100=25*4
