100 POINTS AND BRAINLIYEST!!!
Helga [31]

See explanations below

Step-by-step explanation:

Chanel

(i) 90° counterclockwise and then dilation by a factor of 1/2

Trapezoid PQRS is given as :

P(6,-4) -------P'(4,6)

Q(2,-2)------Q'(2,2)

R(2,-6)-------R'(6,2)

S(6,-6)-------S'(6,6)

The transformation switches the position of (x,y) to and adds a -ve sign to the original y value

B. The new coordinates are : P'(4,6), Q'(2,2),R'(6,2) and S'(6,6)

The  rule for rotation 90° counterclockwise about the origin is (x,y)⇒(-y,x)

The rule for dilation with scale factor of 1/2 is (x,y)------(1/2x,1/2y)

P'(4,6) -----P''(2,3)

Q'(2,2)-----Q''(1,1)

R'(6,2)-----R''(3,1)

S'( 6,6)-----S''(3,3)

The dilation reduces the coordinates by 1/2

Preston

E. (i)Reflection over x-axis where the rule is : (x,y)----(x,-y)

(ii)Dilation by scale factor of 1/2 the rule is : (x,y)---(1/2x, 1/2y)

Applying reflection over x-axis rule;

P(6,-4) -----P'(6,4)

Q(2,-2)-----Q'(2,2)

R(2,-6)------R'(2,6)

S(6,-6)------S'(6,6)

The coordinates have changed in that a negative sign is added to the y-axis coordinate.

F. P'(6,4), Q'(2,2), R'(2,6) and S'(6,6)

G. Applying the dilation by scale factor of 1/2

P'(6,4)-------P''(3,2)

Q'(2,2)------Q''(1,1)

R'(2,6)------R''(1,3)

S'(6,6)------S''(3,3)

The coordinates of P'Q'R'S are divide by 2 to give coordinates of P''Q''R''S''

Comparing the answers to the final figure given

K(3,2)

L(1,1)

M(1,3)

N(3,3)

Preston is correct because his sequence proves trapezoid PQRS is similar to trapezoid KLMN.

A candy bar box is in the shape of a triangular prism. The volume of the box is 1,200 cubic centimeters. A triangular prism is s
Nastasia [14]

The height of the base is 12cm.

The approximate amount of cardboard used to make the candy box is  720 cm².

Given

A candy bar box is in the shape of a triangular prism.

The volume of the box is 1,200 cubic centimeters.

A triangular prism is shown with a base of the triangle labeled 10 cm, sides of the triangles labeled 13 cm, and length of the box equal to 20 cm.

<h3>The volume of the prism;</h3>

The volume of a triangular prism is given by the formula;

\rm Volume=\dfrac{1}{2} \times length \times width \times height

Part A: What is the height of the base?

The height of the base is given by;

\rm Volume=\dfrac{1}{2} \times length \times width \times height\\\\1200=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 20 \times 10 \times Height\\\\Height =\dfrac{1200\times 2}{20 \times 10}\\\\Height =\dfrac{2400}{200}\\\\Height = 12 \ cm

The height of the base is 12cm.

Part B: What is the approximate amount of cardboard used to make the candy box?

The approximate amount of cardboard used to make the candy box is given by;

\rm Area = 2 \times length \times width+ length \times width \\\\Area = 2\times 20 \times 10+ 20\times 10\\\\Area = 520+200 \\\\Area = 720

The approximate amount of cardboard used to make the candy box is  720 cm².

Tina is cutting construction paper into rectangles for a project. She needs to cut one rectangle that is 15 inches × 12 1/3 inch
erastova [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

This is an "in theory" type of question. She's going to actually need a little more.

Area 1

L = 15

W = 12 1/3

Area = L*W

Area = 15 * 12 1/3                    I wonder if you know what the distributive property is. I'll try it. If you don't understand, leave a remark

Area = 15 * (12 + 1/3)              Multiply both parts by 15

Area = 15*12 + 1/3 * 15

Area = 180 + 5

Area =                                                                          185 square inches.

Area 2.

This is a little harder because their are

2 fractions.

The easy way to do this is change to decimals

L = 10 1/3 = 10.33333333

W = 10 1/4 = 10.25

Area = 10.3333333 * 10.25

Area =                                                                 <u>       105.92</u>      Add

Total Area

The total area =                                                        290.92

What is the area of the triangle?
gavmur [86]

Answer:

Concept: Geometric Interpretation

  1. area =  \frac{1}{2} (b \times h)
  2. So 1/2(10×24)= 120 units^2
