Answer:

87.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Like stated previously similar triangle have side lengths with common ratios

*Create a proportionality to solve for MK*

57/13 = MK / 20

Now solve for MK

Multiply each side by 20

57/13 * 20 = 87.7 ( rounded )

MK/20 * 20 = MK

We're left with MK = 87.7

Answer:

$MK\approx 87.7$

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, similar polygons have corresponding sides in a constant proportion. Therefore, we can set up the following proportion (ratio of corresponding sides) to solve for $MK$ :

$\frac{20}{13}=\frac{MK}{57},\\MK=\frac{57\cdot 20}{13}\approx \boxed{87.7}$

Answer:

The vertex form of a quadratic function:

(h,k) - the coordinates of the vertex

If a>0, then the parabola opens upwards, so the vertex is the minimum of the function.

If a<0, then the parabola opens downwards, so the vertex is the maximum of the function.
