We have to find the parameter a so that (-1,2) is part of the function f(x) = ax²+4.
To check if a point is part of a function, we can replace the values of x and y = f(x) with the coordinates of the point and then, if the equation stays true, then the point is part of the function.
So for (x,y) = (-1,2) to be part of the function y = f(x), this equation has to stands true:
Then, the function would have to be f(x) = -2x² + 4.
We can check with a graph as:
Answer: a = -2
I draw the two triangles, see the picture attached.
As you can see, angle 1 and 2 are vertically opposite angles because they are formed by the same two crossing lines and they face each other.
Angles <span>ABQ and QPR, as well as angles BAQ and QRP, are alternate interior angles because they are formed by </span><span>two parallel lines crossed by a transversal, and they are inside the two lines on opposite sides of the transversal.</span>
Hence, Allison's correct claims are:
1 = 2 because they are vertically opposite angles.
BAQ = QRP because they are alternate interior angles.
Therefore Allison, in order to prove her claim, can use the AA similarity theorem: if two angles of a triangle are congruent to two angles of the other triangle, then the two triangles are similar.
