yaroslaw [1]3 years ago

Answer:

Δ ABC and Δ DEF are similar because their corresponding sides are proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

Two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional which means the corresponding sides have equal ratios

In the two triangles ABC and DEF

∵ AB = 4 units

∵ DE = 2 units

∴ \frac{AB}{DE}=\frac{4}{2}=2

∵ BC = 6 units

∵ EF = 3 units

∴ \frac{BC}{EF}=\frac{6}{3}=2

∵ CA = 2 units

∵ FD = 1 units

∴ \frac{CA}{FD}=\frac{2}{1}=2

∴ \frac{AB}{DE}=\frac{BC}{EF}=\frac{CA}{FD}=2

∵ All the ratios of the corresponding sides are equal

∴ The corresponding sides of the two triangles are proportional

∴ Δ ABC is similar to Δ DEF

Find the value of x.<br><br> A.<br> 7<br> B.<br> 9<br> C.<br> 11<br> D.<br> 12
Arisa [49]
Use the law of cosines to solve for angle A. Plug your known side length values into the equation a^2 = b^2 + c^2 – 2bc cos A.

Then use the law of sines to find angle B. (Sin A/a = Sin B/b = Sin C/c).

Because the two red angles within B are congruent, divide your angle measure in half.

From there, do the law of sines to solve for x. Good luck!

Out of 600 seniors at a local high school, 60% went on the senior trip. At the hotel, one room was reserved for every 4 students
butalik [34]

Given:

Total number of senior students = 600

60% went on the senior trip.

One room was reserved for every 4 students.

To find:

The total number of reserved rooms.

Solution:

60% went on the senior trip from total 600 students. So, number of students who went on tripe is

600\times \dfrac{60}{100}=360

Now, one room was reserved for every 4 students. So,

\text{Required number of rooms}=\dfrac{\text{Number of students who went on tripe}}{\text{Number of students in room}}

\text{Required number of rooms}=\dfrac{360}{4}

\text{Required number of rooms}=90

Therefore, the required number of reserved rooms were 90.
