Please find image attached

Answer and explanation:

If (from the image attached) DE is a line segment that divides the sides AB and AC proportionally in ΔABC then we can prove that line segment DE is parallel to BC using the parallel transversal theorem. Based the parallel transversal theorem, the triangles ABC and ADE are similar therefore angles are congruent and line DE must be parallel to line BC

What transformation will take triangle GBC onto triangle ABC?<br><br> plz help it’s due today
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

Reflection of ΔGBC on side BC.

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation is the process by which the orientation or dimension of a given shape or figure is adjusted by some method of processes to produce an image with a required property.

From the given diagram, triangles ABC and GBC are congruent, so that;

AC ≅ GC

AB ≅ GB

BC is a common side to both triangles

Therefore, the appropriate transformation that would take ΔGBC onto ΔABC is reflection on side BC.

Based on the Census, state A has 17 fewer electoral votes for president then state B. If the total number of electoral votes for
makkiz [27]
X = B.......x - 17 = A

x + x - 17 = 87
2x - 17 = 87
2x = 87 + 17
2x = 104
x = 104/2
x = 52........so state B has 52 electoral votes

x - 17 = A
52 - 17 = A
35 = A.....so state A has 35 electoral votes

Imagine you had 40 one-metre sections of fencing.
Darya [45]

Answer: If I’m not mistaken, the largest area is 75 m2 and the smallest is 2 m2

Step-by-step explanation:

For both : since they are asking for the area, you should calculate the perimeter.

So for the largest area, since you know that you have 40 fences, and each are 1 meter long, and they’re also asking for the largest rectangular area, this means that only the opposite sides will have the same length, so in order to divide the rectangle with the 40 one-meter fences, the biggest sides have to be 15 meters long (so for both : 15x2=30 meters). Then you deduct from 40, 30 : 40-30 = 10 which then you can devide by 2 and find 5 + 5 and that means that the 2 smallest sides will be 5 meters long each. Then finally to calculate the perimeter you should do the biggest side multiplied by the smallest side : 15 x 5 and you find 75 m2 (squaremeters), if I’m not mistaken.

And for the smallest area you take the smallest possibilities knowing that only the opposite sides should have the same length and not all of them, so you do 1 x 2 and you find 2 m2.
