Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Congruence means two objects (whether two dimensional or three dimensional) are identical in size and shape. Everything about them -- their angles, lengths of sides, overall dimensions -- are identical. Similar means being the same shape. Two congruent figures must be the same shape, so they are similar.

while swimming a 2km race, Adam changes from breaststroke to butterfly every 200m. How many times does he switch strokes during

aleksley [76]

in the first half he would have swam 1 km. there are 1000m in a km so 1000/200=5 so he swam the first 200 fly, then a 200 breast, then a 200 fly again, then another 200 breast the finish the first 1 km with a 200 fly. so we switched strokes 4 times.

PS i wouldn't recommend doing a 2 km swim fly and breast

If the endpoints of the diameter of a circle are (6, 3) and (2, 1), what is the standard form equation of the circle?

Anastasy [175]

If the endpoints of a diameter are (6,3) and (2,1) the midpoint is the center of the circle so:

(x,y)=((6+2)/2, (3+1)/2)=(4,2)

Now we need to find the radius....the diameter is:

d^2=(6-2)^2+(3-1)^2

d^2=16+4

d^2=20 since d=2r, r=d/2, and r^2=d^2/4 so

r^2=5

The standard form of the circle is (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 and we know:

(h,k)=(4,2) from earlier so:

(x-4)^2+(y-2)^2=5

Use the figure below to answer the questions.

Archy [21]

Answer:

a. What is the name of the 3D shape?

The name of the 3D shape is Prism

b. What is the formula for total surface area for this shape?

Total surface area:

$S=2A_{b}+P_{b}h$

c. What is the surface area of the figure?

The surface area of the figure is 144 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

a. What is the name of the 3D shape?

The 3D shape has two congruent and parallel faces (triangles) and the other faces are parallelograms, then the 3D shape is a prism

b. What is the formula for total surface area for this shape?

Total Surface area:

$S=2A_{b}+P_{b}h$

where:

Area of the base of the prism: Ab

Perimeter of the base: Pb

Height of the prism: h

c. What is the surface area of the figure?

The base of the prism is a triangle. Then to calculate the area of the base, we must use the formula to calculate the area of a triangle:

$A_{b}=\frac{bh}{2}\\ A_{b}=\frac{(4 cm)(3 cm)}{2}\\ A_{b}=\frac{12cm^{2} }{2}\\ A_{b}=6cm^{2}$

The perimeter of the base is the perimeter of the triangle, equal to the sum of the sides of the triangle:

$P_{b}=4cm+3cm+5cm\\ P_{b}=12cm$

h: Height of the prism is the distance between the bases of the prism (the triangle), then h=11 cm

Then, replacing in the formula the known values:

$S=2(6 cm^{2})+(12 cm)(11 cm)\\ S=12 cm^{2}+132 cm^{2}\\ S=144 cm^{2}$
