Answer:
Answer A
Step-by-step explanation:
We see that ABC is similar to DEF. Pay attention to the order of these letters. The order that they read (left-to-right) is the order that they are similar. For example, AB is similar to DE. Despite being different triangles, they are both the <em>first two </em>letters in the triangle. So, knowing this, we can conclude that answer choice A is correct.
Answer: The correct answer is B.
Step-by-step explanation: To simplify a square root, you take the factors of the value in the square root and see the greatest factor that is a square. In this case, 49 is the greatest square factor of 98. You take the square root of 49, which is 7. 7 goes outside the radicand. Leave 2 inside the radical because 49 x 2 = 98. Hence, the correct answer is B.
Answer:
(a) 169.1 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram shows you the distance (x) will be shorter than 170 m, but almost that length. The only reasonable answer choice is ...
169.1 m
__
The relevant trig relation is ...
Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
The leg of the right triangle adjacent to the marked angle is x, and the hypotenuse is 170 m. Putting these values into the equation, you have ...
cos(6°) = x/(170 m)
x = (170 m)cos(6°) ≈ (170 m)(0.994522) ≈ 169.069 m
The horizontal distance covered is about 169.1 meters.

Expressed as a percentage, the slope of this hill is tan(6°) ≈ 10.5%. It would be considered to be a pretty steep hill for driving.
Answer:
(1, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
midpoint x = (x₁ + x₂) / 2
midpoint y = (y₁ + y₂) / 2

= (1, -2)
