Answer:

  (6.2, 4.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want, for some point P, ...

  (P -A) / (B -P) = 1 / 3

  3(P -A) = (B - P) . . . . . multiply by 3

  4P = B +3A . . . . . . . . add P+3A

  P = (B +3A)/4 . . . . . . .divide by 4

Filling in the coordinate values, we can find P to be ...

  P = ((2.3, 5.4) +3(7.5, 4.2))/4 = (2.3+22.5, 5.4+12.6)/4

  P = (6.2, 4.5)

The answer for both of these would be a rectangle.

A rectangular prism has 6 faces, all of which are rectangles.  Slicing the prism parallel to any of the faces, whether they are end faces or bases, will result in a rectangular cross-section.

Can someone help me please will give brainliest

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Each point moves to half its previous distance from P. It is probably easier to count grid squares on the graph than it is to do the math on the coordinates.

If you're doing the math on the coordinates, it is convenient to use P = (0, 0), then multiply each of the coordinates of A, B, and C by 1/2. For example:

  A' = (1/2)A = (1/2)(8, 4) = (4, 2)

One angle in a triangle is 115 degrees. The other two angles are congruent. What is the measure of one of the missing angles?
kifflom [539]
Use the fact that the sum of interior angles of a triangle is equal to  180°. 

Hence,  the second and the third angles of the given triangle are 180-115/2= 65/2<span>

 (32 degrees and 30 minutes).</span>
