Use the converse of the Pythagorean theorem to decide whether ΔABC is a right triangle by answering the questions.

Answer:

1. Use the Pythagorean theorem to find AD. Show your work.

AD=9

Side BD=12, and side AB=15. We know that side AB is the hypotenuse, so AD^2+144=225

225-144=81, so side AD=9

2. Find AC. Show your work.

AC=25

To find AC, we can add AD and DC

9+16=25

3. Is ΔABC a right triangle? Explain.

ABC is a right triangle because AB^2+BC^2=AC^2

Answer:

Pythagorean theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2

1. we have to find a. b is 12 and c is 15 because the right angle is pointing towards 15 so that is the hypotenuse. then we simply plug the info in the equation we have above.

a^2 + 12^2 = 15^2

a^2 + 144 = 225

a^2 = 81 --> sqaure root to find the answer basically.

a = 9

- we put AD as a so AD = 9

final answer : 9

2. to find AC, simply add AD and DC.

9 + 16 = 25

final answer: AC = 25

3. ABC is not a right triangle because it does not have a right angle. the smaller triangles do, but that does not mean that ABC is a right triangle.

-- let me know if you need any further explanations.

What is the inverse matrix that can be used to solve this systems of equations
Gala2k [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is OPTION C

Find the Inverse of a 3x3 Matrix.

First

Find the Determinant of A(The coefficients of e

Proceed towards finding the CO FACTOR of the 3x3 Matrix.

+. - +

A= [ 1 -1 -1 ]

[ -1 2 3 ]

[ 1 1 4 ]

The determinant of this is 1.

Find the co factor

| 2 3 | |-1 3 | |-1 2 |

| 1. 4. | |1 4 | |1. 1 |

|-1. -1 | |1 -1 | |1 -1

| 1. 4 | |1. 4| |1 1|

|-1. -1 | |1 -1 | |1. -1

|2. 3| |-1. 3| |-1 2|

After Evaluating The Determinant of each 2x 2 Matrix

You'll have

[ 5 7 -3]

[3 5 -2 ]

[-1 -2 1]

Reflect this along the diagonal( Keep 5,5 -2)

Then switching positions of other value

No need of Multiplying by the determinant because its value is 1 from calculation.

After this

Our Inverse Matrix Would be

[ 5 3 -1 ]

[7 5 -2 ]

[ -3 -2 1]

THIS IS OUR INVERSE.

SO

OPTION C

A point is reflected across the y axis the new point is located at -4.25,-1.75 write the order pair that represents the original
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

(4.25, - 1.75)

Step-by-step explanation:

Under a reflection in the y- axis

a point (x, y ) → (- x, y ), thus

(- 4.25, - 1.75 ) → (4.25, - 1.75 ) ← original point
