Answer:
B. SAS
Step-by-step explanation:
In the given diagram, it would be observed that each side of the bigger triangle are multiplied by a factor of 
to give the values of each corresponding sides of the smaller triangle. But the included angle of the two triangles are the same.
Therefore, the reason why the triangles are similar is because of side-angle-side (SAS) relations. The correct option is B.
Answer:
A darts player practices throwing a dart at the bull’s eye on a dart board. Her probability of hitting the bull’s eye for each throw is 0.2.
(a) Find the probability that she is successful for the first time on the third throw:
The number F of unsuccessful throws till the first bull’s eye follows a geometric
distribution with probability of success q = 0.2 and probability of failure p = 0.8.
If the first bull’s eye is on the third throw, there must be two failures:
P(F = 2) = p
2
q = (0.8)2
(0.2) = 0.128.
(b) Find the probability that she will have at least three failures before her first
success.
We want the probability of F ≥ 3. This can be found in two ways:
P(F ≥ 3) = P(F = 3) + P(F = 4) + P(F = 5) + P(F = 6) + . . .
= p

(0.2)
1 − 0.8
= (0.8)3 = 0.512.
Alternatively,
P(F ≥ 3) = 1 − (P(F = 0) + P(F = 1) + P(F = 2))
= 1 − (q + pq + p
2
q)
= 1 − (0.2)(1 + 0.8 + (0.8)2
)
= 1 − 0.488 = 0.512.
(c) How many throws on average will fail before she hits bull’s eye?
Since p = 0.8 and q = 0.2, the expected number of failures before the first success
is
E[F] = p
q
=
0.8
0.2
= 4.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, if any number is higher than '5' it turns one number more. So, here's a good rhyme to help you: "Five or more, up the score, Four or less, let it rest." The maximum number it could be would have to be '444' because it is not bigger than 445, which would turn to 500.
