The two triangles are similar what is the value of x? x=___

Mathematics

Dennis_Churaev [7]3 years ago

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

What we have to know is that when two triangles are similar their sides will always be proportional. So we will create a proportion that goes like this...\frac{\Delta1side}{\Delta1base} =\frac{\Delta2side}{\Delta2base} but since it doesn't tell us the exact value of triangle 1. We will have to add 3 and 12 to get 15 which is the base of the first triangle. Now we're ready to write the proportion.

\frac{4x}{15}=\frac{3x+1}{12}

Now we cross multiply and solve the equation...

48x=15(3x+1)\\48x=45x+15\\3x=15\\x=5

So the value of x is 5.

The point B(1, 1) is rotated 90° counterclockwise around the origin. What are the co
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Given that the point B is (1,1) is rotate 90° counterclockwise around the origin.

We need to determine the coordinates of the resulting point B'.

<u>Coordinates of the point B':</u>

The general rule to rotate the point 90° counterclockwise around the origin is given by

(x, y) \rightarrow(-y, x)

The new coordinate can be determined by interchanging the coordinates of x and y and changing the sign of y.

Now, we shall determine the coordinates of the point B' by substituting (1,1) in the general rule.

Thus, we have;

Coordinates of B' = (1,1) \rightarrow(-1,1)

Thus, the coordinates of the resulting point B' is (-1,1)
