Explain how similar objects and proportions are related. It's talking about polygons in geometry

Related sides the the same ratio so if I have a square with side length 10 and a similar one with side length of 5 the ratio is 1/2 when going from big to small or 2/1 when going small to big.  This is true for all sides.  This allows you to find missing sides using proportions.

I’m a bit confused on how to solve this problem, and could use some help!
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Okay to start with we know this side isn't congruent to our side with 55 degrees looking at this side we can see that x is not 95 degrees because it is an acute angle so A is crossed out. Next this side isn't congruent like I said so B is crossed out. C is possible but the angle wouldn't be as wide as it is if we had 59 degrees so C is incorrect. Leaving us with D 70 degrees hope this helps and sorry if I got it wrong!

Complete the given diagram by dragging expressions to each leg of the triangle. Then, correctly complete the equation to derive
Nimfa-mama [501]

The equation to derive the distance d is \sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}. The lengths of the other legs of the given triangle are (y2 - y1) and (x2 - x1).

<h3>What is the formula for calculating the distance between two points?</h3>

Consider the two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

The formula used for calculating the distance between the two points is

distance = \sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

Given that,

The triangle in the graph has vertices (x1, y1), (x2, y2), and (x2, y1)

Since this triangle makes 90°, it is a right-angled triangle.

Hypotenuse = (x1, y1) to (x2, y2), Adjacent = (x1, y1) to (x2,y1), and Opposite = (x2, y1) to (x2, y2).

Consider the length of the hypotenuse = d

So, using the distance formula, the length of the hypotenuse(d) is,

d = \sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}

And the lengths of the other two legs of the given triangle are,

Length of the adjacent side: (x1, y1) to (x2,y1)

= \sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y1-y1)^2}

= \sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+0}

= (x2-x1)

Length of the opposite side: (x2, y1) to (x2, y2)

= \sqrt{(x2-x2)^2+(y2-y1)^2}

= \sqrt{0+(y2-y1)^2}

= (y2-y1)

Therefore, the derived distances for the given triangle are:

d=\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}, (x2 - x1), and (y2 - y1).

9. Is the line through points P(7, 3) and Q(11, 0) perpendicular to the line through points R(6, –3) and S(3, 1)? Explain.A)Yes;
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

C) No, their slopes are not opposite reciprocals.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the slopes.

slope of PQ = (3 - 0)/(7 - 11) = 3/(-4) = -3/4

slope of RS = (-3 - 1)/(6 - 3) = -4/3

product of the slopes = (-3/4) * (-4/3) = 1

The slopes are reciprocals, but they are not opposite reciprocals, so the lines are not perpendicular.
