Answer:
angle JKL is 106
Step-by-step explanation:
an isosceles triangle means two sides are the same and the bottom two angles are the same length. So you would equal the two equations and solve it to get x. Then replace one of the equation's x with the number you got, which would be 5, and solve that. Since both bottom angle are the same, the other angle would be the same degree, 37*. A triangle is 180* total, so subtract that by two 37's and you'll get the answer.
*Correct Question:
Based on the similar triangles shown below, Theodore claims that ∆TUV is transformed to ∆WXY with a scale factor of 3/2. Is Theodore correct?
A. Yes, the triangles are similar with a scale factor of 3/2.
B. No, the triangles are similar with a scale factor of 2/1.
C. No, the triangles are similar with a scale factor of 2/3.
D. No, the triangles are similar with a scale factor of 4/3.
Answer:
C. No, the triangles are similar with a scale factor of 2/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
∆TUV is the original triangle. After transformation, the size reduced to give us ∆WXY. This means ∆TUV was reduced by a scale factor to give ∆WXY. The scale factor should be a fraction, suggesting, the original size of the ∆ was reduced upon transformation.
Thus, the ratio of their corresponding sides = the scale factor.
This is:
If you multiply the side length of ∆TUV by ⅔, you'd get side length of ∆WXY.
So, Theodore is wrong.
