These triangles are NOT similar! Why not? Use calculations AND words to explain.

Charra [1.4K]3 years ago

Answer:

Similar triangles are (roughly speaking) triangles that have the same angles and the same ratio of the length of their sides

We can use ratios to show that the triangles are not similar

14:20 as a fraction is 14/20 as a decimal is 0.7

12:16 as a fraction is 12/16 as a decimal is 0.75

The side lengths are not the same proportion as shown by the different decimal, so the triangles are not similar

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Total impedance in circuit = 8 - 2j ohms

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Circuit one = 1 + 3j ohms

Circuit two = 7 - 5j ohms

Find:

Total impedance in circuit

Computation:

Total impedance in circuit = Circuit one + Circuit two

Total impedance in circuit = 1 + 3j + 7 - 5j

Total impedance in circuit = 8 - 2j ohms

Find a value for b so that the polynomial x^2+ bx + 25 factors to (x + 5)^2.
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

10 = b

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by expanding (x + 5)^2

(x + 5)(x + 5)

First: x*x = x^2

Outside: x *  5 (the last term which is a 5)

Inside: 5+ x

Last:  5*5 = 25

x^2 + 5x + 5x + 25

x^3 + 10x + 25
