Answer:

13√2

Step-by-step explanation:

The areas of the larger triangle, and the smaller triangle (formed when the larger triangle was cut by the parallel line) are similar. Therefore we can compare their areas:

Area1/Area2 =  (Length1)^2/(Length2)^2,

x/2x = (Length1)^2/(26)^2,

1/2 = (Length1)^2/676,

(Length1)^2 = 676/2 = 338

Length1 = √1352 = 13√2

JulsSmile [24]

Let x be one number and y be the other.

x + y = 54 ------------- (1)

x - y = 10 ------------- (2)

.

<u>Add (1) and (2):</u>

2x = 64

<u>Divide both sides by 2:</u>

x = 32

-

<u>Plug x = 32 into (1):</u>

32 + y = 54

<u>Take away 32 from both sides:</u>

y = 22

-

Answer: The two numbers are 32 and 22.

In the coordinate plane, point A(-1,-1) is translated to point A' (-3.-3). Under the same translation, the points B(-4,-4) and C
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

B' (- 6, - 6 ) , C' (- 7, - 7 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the coordinates of A and A'

A (- 1, - 1 ) , A' (- 3, - 3 )

- 1 to - 3 in both the x and y direction means subtracting 2 units , then

translation rule is

(x, y ) → (x - 2, y - 2 ) , then

B (- 4, - 4 ) → B' (- 4 - 2, - 4 - 2 ) → B' (- 6, - 6 )

C (- 5, - 5 ) → C' (- 5 - 2, - 5 - 2 ) → C' (- 7, - 7 )
