Answer:

  3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of areas of similar figures is the square of the ratio of linear dimensions. That means the ratio of linear dimensions is the square root of the area ratio. The ratio of the smaller triangle dimensions to the larger is then ...

  k = √((8 cm^2)/(18 cm^2)) = √(4/9) = 2/3

Then the corresponding side of the smaller triangle is ...

... k · (4.5 cm) = (2/3)·(4.5 cm) = 3 cm

Colt1911 [192]
We need the length of the sides.
AB=√(2-(-2))²+(4-1)²=√16+9=√25=5; BC=√4²+0=4; CA=√0+9=3. AB+BC+CA=5+4+3=12.

Select all statements that are true about the graph of ordered pair (5, −1) . The point is 5 units below the x-axis. The point i
seropon [69]
The -1 means that y = -1, so point is one unit below the x-axis.  In (5, -1), the x is positive, which could put the point in either the first quadrant or the fourth.  With the y being negative, however, it means that the point is in the fourth quadrant.  Those are your 2 true statements.
