Answer: Choice B

FH/FI = HG/IE

================================================

Explanation:

We're told that triangles EFI and GFH are similar. The order of the lettering is important because it tells us how the angles pair up.

  • E and G pair up because they are the first letters of EFI and GFH
  • F and F pair up as they are the second letters
  • I and H pair up because they are the third letters

This means

  • E = G
  • F = F
  • I = H

Furthermore, it means

  • EF corresponds to FG
  • FI corresponds to FH
  • IE corresponds to GH

Focus on the last two items of the list above. We can then form the proportion

FI/FH = IE/GH

which is the same as

FH/FI = GH/IE

when we apply the reciprocal to both sides. Since HG is the same as GH, we can then say

FH/FI = HG/IE

So basically the corresponding sides create equal ratios to form this proportion. There are many other proportions that can be formed.

The terminal side of an angle in standard position passes through p(–3, –4). what is the value of tangent theta?
astraxan [27]

Answer:

  4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent of any angle (θ) in standard position that has point (x, y) on its terminal ray is ...

  tan(θ) = y/x

__

For the given point on the terminal side, the tangent is ...

  tan(θ) = (-4)/(-3) = 4/3

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

There are several ways this can be explained. One of them makes use of the relation between rectangular and polar coordinates:

  (x, y) = (r·cos(θ), r·sin(θ))

Then the ratio y/x is ...

  y/x = (r·sin(θ))/(r·cos(θ)) = sin(θ)/cos(θ) = tan(θ)

-2/3y-3/4=5 <br> What is the answer i need to show my work please
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

y=  -69/8  (negative 69 over 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to simplify both sides of the equation:

-2/3y+ -3/4 =5

Second, add 3/4 to both sides:

-2/3y +-3/4 + 3/4=5 +3/4

-2/3y= 23/4

Next, multiply both sides by 3/(-2) (3 over -2)

(3/-2)*(-2/3y)= (3/-2) * (23/4)

<em><u></u></em>

<em><u>y= -69/8</u></em>

Calculate the value of x.
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

x = 17deg

Step-by-step explanation:

Let angle y be the unknown angle IN THE TRIANGLE.

Angle y = 180 - 90 - 73

= 17deg

Angle x = Angle y (Alternate angles on 2 parallel lines)

Angle x = 17 deg
