If a series of rigid transformations maps ∠F onto ∠C where ∠F is congruent to ∠C, then which of the following statements is true

?
triangles ABC and FDE, in which angles A and D are right angles

ΔABC ~ ΔFDE because of the definition of similarity in terms of similarity transformations
ΔABC ~ ΔFDE because of the AA similarity postulate
segment BC ~ segment EF because of the definition of similarity in terms of similarity transformations
segment BC ~ segment EF because corresponding parts of similar triangles are proportional

Answer:

D. segment BC ~ segment EF because corresponding parts of similar triangles are proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

Rigid transformations is a process which can be used to either enlarge, reduce, resize a given object. Examples are: translation, reflection, rotation etc.

Given that  ∠F is congruent to ∠C in the question, this implies that ΔABC is similar to ΔFDE. Thus a scale is required to map the two triangles exactly into one another. Therefore, the statement that is true is segment BC ~ segment EF because corresponding parts of similar triangles are proportional.

a parallelogram has a base of 3 feet and a height of 5 feet. The base and height will each be doubled. Will the area also be dou
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

No, doubling the base and height would actually quadruple the area,

Step-by-step explanation:

With the original measurements of b = 3 ft and h = 5 ft,

<em>b x h = A</em>

<em>(3) x (5) = </em><em>15 ft</em>

So lets say we <em>doubled</em> the factors:

<em>(2)(3) x (2)(5) = A</em>

We would end up with 60 feet, four times that of 15.

<em>(6) x (10) = </em><em>60 ft</em>

The night watchman in a factory cannot guard both the safe in back and the cash register in front. The safe contains $6000, whil
Zolol [24]

Answer:

The guard should be positioned at the safe

Step-by-step explanation:

The night watchmen should be positioned to guard whichever place gives the highest expected value to the thief.

The expected value of robbing the safe is:

EV_{s} = \$ 6000*0.2\\EV_{s} = \$ 1200

The expected value of robbing the cash register is:

EV_{r} = \$ 1000*0.8\\EV_{r} = \$ 800

Therefore, the guard should be positioned at the safe since it yields a higher expected value to the thief in case he tries to rob it.

2. Solve the system of equations. Write your answer in parametric vector notation. X, +5x2 + 4x3 + 3x4 +9xs = 18 2x, +6x2 + 4x3
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The system is inconsistent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The system is

x_1+5x_2+4x_3+3x_4+9x_5=18\\2x_1+6x_2+4x_3+6x_4+6x_5=28\\3x_1+7x_2+4x_3+10x_4+x_5=41\\4x_1+6x_2+2x_3+7x_4+4x_5=29

The associated matrix to the system is

\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\2&6&4&6&6&28\\3&7&4&10&1&41\\4&6&2&7&4&29\end{array}\right]

Now we use row operations to find the echelon form of the matrix:

1. We substract to row 2, two times the row 1.

We substract to row 3, three times the row 1.

We substract to row 4, four times the row 1 and obtain the matrix

\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&-4&-4&0&-12&-8\\0&-8&-8&1&-26&-13\\0&-14&-14&-5&-32&-43\end{array}\right]

2. We multiply the second row of the preview step by -1/4. We obtain the matrix

\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&1&1&0&3&2\\0&-8&-8&1&-26&-13\\0&-14&-14&-5&-32&-43\end{array}\right]

3.

We add to row 3, eight times the row 2.

We add to row 4, fourtheen times the row 2 and obtain the matrix

\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&1&1&0&3&2\\0&0&0&1&-2&3\\0&0&0&-5&10&-155\end{array}\right]

4. We add to row 4 of the preview step, five times the row 3 and obtain the matrix

\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&1&1&0&3&2\\0&0&0&1&-2&3\\0&0&0&0&0&-140\end{array}\right]

Using backward substitution we have that

0x_5=-140, then 0=-140 and this is absurd. Then The system is inconsistent.

Please help whoever answers this correctly I'll mark your answer brainliest​
Oksana_A [137]

Answers:

  1. Incorrect
  2. Correct
  3. Correct

==================================================

Explanation:

When applying any kind of reflections, the parallel sides will stay parallel. Check out the diagram below for an example of this.

So PQ stays parallel to RS. Also, QR stays parallel to PS.

The statement "PQ is parallel to PS" is incorrect because the two segments intersect at point P. This letter "P" is found in "PQ" and "PS" to show the common point of intersection. Parallel lines never intersect.
