Answer:

a = 9.4 cm

b = 12.0 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Check the image uploaded for diagram;

For the first diagram, side length a is calculated as follows;

a² = 8² + 5²

a² = 64 + 25

a² = 89

a = √89

a = 9.4 cm ( approximated to 1 decimal place)

For the second diagram, side length b is calculated as follows;

b² = 17² - 12²

b² = 145

b = √145

b = 12.0 cm (approximated to 1 decimal place)

<h3>Answer: Choice C. (-x, -y)</h3>

Explanation:

Focus on one point, such as A = (1,2). Note how it moves to point A ' = (-1, -2). Both x and y coordinates have been flipped from positive to negative. The rule therefore is $(x,y) \to (-x,-y)$ . This describes a 180 degree rotation (either clockwise or counterclockwise, it doesn't matter). Points B and C follow the same idea.
