Answer: AD/CD = 2/5
Explanation:
Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC on the basis of AA(Angle angle)
Recall, if 2 triangles are similar, it means that the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal. Thus,
AB/DE = BC/EC = AC/DC
From the information given,
AB/DE = 7/5
Thus,
AC/DC = 7/5
AD + CD = AC
(AD + CD)/DC = 7/5
AD/DC + CD/DC = 7/5
AD/DC + 1 = 7/5
AD/DC = 7/5 - 1
AD/DC = 2/5
AD/CD = 2/5
The triagle which is similar to ABC id DEF. The first option is correct since thwy have the same measurement of its sides
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
They gave you an easy triangle. You can tell by the coordinates that X and Z are horizontally aligned, and Y and Z are vertically aligned, so Z is a right angle.
Area = 0.5(XZ)(YZ) = 0.5(3)(3) = 4.5 square units.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:The probability of picking the biased coin: P(biased coin)=1/100. The probability of all three tosses is heads: P(three heads)=1×1+99×18100. The probability of three heads given the biased coin is trivial: P(three heads|biased coin)=1.
Y = -(1/2)(x-2)² +8
Re write it in standard form:
(y-8) = -1/2(x-2)² ↔ (y-k) = a(x-h)²
This parabola open downward (a = -1/2 <0), with a maximum shown in vertex
The vertex is (h , k) → Vertex(2 , 8)
focus(h, k +c )
a = 1/4c → -1/2 = 1/4c → c = -1/2, hence focus(2, 8-1/2) →focus(2,15/2)
Latus rectum: y-value = 15/2
Replace in the equation y with 15/2→→15/2 = -1/2(x-2)² + 8
Or -1/2(x-2)² +8 -15/2 = 0
Solving this quadratic equation gives x' = 3 and x" = 2, then
Latus rectum = 5
