<h3>Answer:</h3>
Yes, ΔPʹQʹRʹ is a reflection of ΔPQR over the x-axis
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
The problem statement tells you the transformation is ...
... (x, y) → (x, -y)
Consider the two points (0, 1) and (0, -1). These points are chosen for your consideration because their y-coordinates have opposite signs—just like the points of the transformation above. They are equidistant from the x-axis, one above, and one below. Each is a <em>reflection</em> of the other across the x-axis.
Along with translation and rotation, <em>reflection</em> is a transformation that <em>does not change any distance or angle measures</em>. (That is why these transformations are all called "rigid" transformations: the size and shape of the transformed object do not change.)
An object that has the same length and angle measures before and after transformation <em>is congruent</em> to its transformed self.
So, ... ∆P'Q'R' is a reflection of ∆PQR over the x-axis, and is congruent to ∆PQR.
Answer:
x = 12 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
m < LNM = (70+136)/2
= 206 / 2
= 103 degrees
So 7x + 19 = 103
7x = 103 - 19 = 84
x = 84/7
x = 12.
lmk if you're looking for point slope form but it's y = 2/5x - 3
Answer:
6.4 m
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 2 expressions here. The first one is the fact that r = y. That's one of 2 equations. The second one involves whats' left after cutting off certain lengths of each color string. We cut 2.5 m from red, we cut 3.8 m from yellow. We know that what's left of red is 1.5 times the length of what's left of yellow. What's left of red is r - 2.5; what's left of yellow is y - 3.8. We know that r = 1.5y, so filling that in with our corresponding expressions gives us
r - 2.5 = 1.5(y - 3.8)
Distribute to get
r - 25 = 1.5y - 3.2
Now from the first expression, r = y, so fill in y for r to get an equation in one variable:
y - 2.5 = 1.5y - 3.2
Combine like terms:
-.5y = -3.2 and divide to get
y = 6.4
Check it to make sure it works. What's left of red should be 1.5 times the length of what's left of yellow and y = 6.4:
What's left of red: 6.4 - 2.5 = 3.9
What's left of yellow: 6.4 - 3.8 = 2.6
1.5 x 2.6 = 3.9, just like it should!
