A)
To be similar triangles have to have equal angles
triangle ZDB'
1)angle Z=90 degrees
triangle B'CQ
1) angle C 90 degrees
angle A'B'Q=90
DB'Z+A'B'Q+CB'Q=180, straight angle
DB'Z+90+CB'Q=180
DB'Z+CB'Q=90
triangle ZDB'
DZB'+DB'Z=180-90=90
DB'Z+CB'Q=90
DZB'+DB'Z=90
DB'Z+CB'Q=DZB'+DB'Z
2)CB'Q=DZB' (these angles from two triangles ZDB' and B'CQ )
3)so,angles DB'Z and B'QC are going to be equal because of sum of three angles in triangles =180 degrees and 2 angles already equal.
so this triangles are similar by tree angles
b)
B'C:B'D=3:4
B'D:DZ=3:2
CQ-?
DC=AB=21
DC=B'C+B'D (3+4= 7 parts)
21/7=3
B'C=3*3=9
B'D=3*4=12
B'D:DZ=3:2
12:DZ=3:2
DZ=12*2/3=8
B'D:DZ=CQ:B'C
3:2=CQ:9
CQ=3*9/2=27/2
c)
BC=BQ+QC=B'Q+QC
BQ' can be found by pythagorean theorem
Here we have to convert 423 yards into feet.
first let us find the basic relation between yard and feet
1 yard =3 foot
so applying this to our question we get,
423 yard =423*3 foot = 1269 feet
Answer 423 yards =1269 feet
Here is the answer that Siri gave me
1. C
2. A
3. D
4. 62/25
5. 4/33
By the way it is not fair. posting 5 sums for just 7 points. :)
anyway, if it helped u
do click thx.
