How do you solve for x the similarity statement is abc~ xyz​

Answer:

m<X= 36.87 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle abc and xyz are similar, hence;

m<C = m<Y

90 = x - 5

Add 5 to both sides

90+5 = x-5+5

95 = x

Swap

x = 95

m<Y = x - 5

m<Y = 95 - 5

m<Y = 90

Find m<X

Using the SOH CAH TOA

Opposite to m<X = YZ = 6

Adjacent = 8

Tan M<X = opp/adj

Tan m<X = 6/8

m<X = arctan(6/8)

m<X= 36.87 degrees

REY [17]

Answer:

A total of 720 elk are likely to be infected

Step-by-step explanation:

we shall be using the proportion by survey to estimate the number of infections

From the survey 8 out of 50 are infected. Thus the likelihood of infection is 8/50

We have 4,500 elk to consider. The number of elk likely to be infected will be 8/50 * 4500 = 720

Find the area of the figure in the image attached. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.
ella [17]
19.8m²

Work:
First you split the shape into a rectangle and a triangle. So now you have a triangle with the sides 4 x 3.6 and a triangle with the sides 4 x 2.7.

Side note: 2.7 comes from subtracting 3.6 off of 6.3.

Rectangle:
A = lw
A = 4 (3.6)
A = 14.4m²

Triangle:
A = 1/2lw
A = 1/2 (4) (2.7)
A = 5.4m²

Then you add the areas of both the rectangle and the triangle together.

14.4 + 5.4 = 19.8m²

Answer:

8 is the length of JB

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Key skills needed: Equations, Congruence</u>

1) We need to find out an equation to make based on the lengths that are given. ΔJMB is congruent to ΔKMB because of Side-Angle-Side:

  • JB is congruent to BK
  • Angle MBK would be a right angle, since it is supplementary to the right angle JBM. Since both are right angles they are congruent.
  • Both triangles have the side BM. Using the reflexive property, BM is congruent to itself, so there you go --> Side-Angle-Side

2) Now since both triangles are congruent, we can make the equation that the length of JM is congruent to the length of MK, using the fact that: If triangles are congruent, then corresponding parts are congruent.

3) This means that 16x -24 = 4x

Subtract 16x from both sides : -24 = -12x

Divide by -12 on both sides and get x = 2

4) Substitute x into the length of JB (16x-24)

16(2)-24 = 32-24 = 8

5) Therefore, the length of JB is 8
