Answer:

Altitude of the right triangle is 4 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude divides the right triangle's hypotenuse as 2 cm and 8 cm long.Let's use formula for similar right triangles proportional equation.I'll show you the diagram with steps.

Answer:

The true statements are:

The rule for the translation can be written as T-3, 1(x, y). ⇒ 1st

The rule for the translation can be written as  (x, y) → (x - 3, y + 1) ⇒ 4th

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the rule of the translation:

  • If the point (x , y) translated horizontally to the right by h units  then its image is (x + h , y)
  • If the point (x , y) translated horizontally to the left by h units  then its image is (x - h , y)
  • If the point (x , y) translated vertically up by k units  then its image is (x , y + k)
  • If the point (x , y) translated vertically down by k units  then its image is (x , y - k)

The vertices of trapezoid ABCD are:

A (-1 , -2) , B (1 , -2) , C (2 , -5) , D (-2 , -5)

The vertices Of trapezoid A'B'C'D' are:

A' (-4 , -1) , B' (-2 , -1) , C' (-1 , -4) , D' (-5 , -4)

Trapezoid ABCD is translated to form Trapezoid A'B'C'D'

By using the rules of translation above:

∵ A = (-1 , -2) and A' = (-4 , -1)

- The rule of translation is (x , y) → (x + h , y + k)

∵ x = -1 and x + h = -4

∴ -1 + h = -4

- Add 1 to both sides

∴ h = -3

∵ y = -2 and y + k = -1

∴ -2 + k = -1

- Add 2 to both sides

∴ k = 1

The rule of translation is (x , y) → (x - 3 , y + 1)

The trapezoid ABCD has been translated 3 units to the left and 1 unit  up

You can check your answer by doing the same steps with the other 3 vertices you will have the same values of h and k

The true statements are:

The rule for the translation can be written as T-3, 1(x, y).

The rule for the translation can be written as  (x, y) → (x - 3, y + 1)

Answer:

y < -3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The shading is below the line meaning the inequality is less than. Moreover, the line is dashed meaning there is no 'equal to'.

Therefore, the inequality is y < -3x + 2.
