Answer:
(a) ΔWZY ~ ΔWXZ ~ ΔZXY
Step-by-step explanation:
In order for the similarity statement to be correct, the corresponding sides need to be listed in the same order.
A: ΔWZY lists sides in order short leg (WZ), long leg (ZY).
ΔWXZ lists sides in order short leg (WX), long leg (XZ).
ΔZXY lists sides in order short leg (ZX), long leg (XY).
The first similarity statement is correct.
__
You can compare this to an incorrect one, the last one, for example.
ΔYZW lists sides in order long leg (YZ), short leg (ZW).
ΔXZW lists sides in order long leg (XZ), hypotenuse (ZW). Hypotenuse and short leg are not corresponding sides, so the similarity statement is incorrect.
Answer:
75 and 552 =627
Step-by-step explanation:
First=x
Second 7x+27
x+ 7x+27= 627
8x+27=627
8x=600
x=75
75*7+27 =525
525+27 = 552
Wrong,
You added when you were supposed to divide.
24/30 = 0.8
