Well looking at the information in triangle ABC you know
Angle B + Angle C = 180 - 144
so Angle B + Angle C = 36
since the triangles are similar let angle M = x
then Angle C = 2x and angle B = angle M but the similarity postulate
so form an equation
2x + x = 36
solve for x
Hope it helps
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation is rotation, reflection, translation and dilation.
Dilation is the increase or decrease in the size of a figure by a factor (k). If k > 1, then it is a enlargement and if k < 1, it is a reduction. If a point A(x, y) is dilated by a factor k, the new point is A'(kx, ky).
Triangle DEF is a dilation of triangle ABC by a factor of 3/4. Hence the coordinates of triangle DEF is:
D(3/4, 9), E(3/4, 9/2), F(3/4, 27/4)
To organize the expressions according to the number of terms, you should understand what a term is. A term is either a single number or variable, or numbers and variables multiplied together. Terms are separated by + or − signs. It is organized as follows:
2x2y + x2 - 3x + 4
3x + y + z
x + 2xyz
9x2yz
