Hello and Good Morning/Afternoon:
<u>Let's take this problem step-by-step</u>:
<u>What does the information want:</u>
<u>Let's gather some information</u>:
- ΔA'BC' and ΔABC are similar triangles
⇒ Angle B is shared by both triangles
⇒ Angle A' and A are the same, as they are both on parallel
lines, A'C' and AC, and both angles are formed with the
same line AB
⇒ by the <em>Angle-Angle Theorem*</em>, they are similar triangles
<u>If they are similar triangles</u>:
⇒ their side lengths are proportional to each other
⇒ let's set up a proportion

⇒ let's set up a proportion

<u>Answer:</u>
- <u>x= 17.143</u>
- <u>y = 26.25</u>
Hope that helps!

Answer:
f(1/4) = 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 4x^2 - 2/3 x is a function. The name of the function is simply the letter f. It tells you a rule. f(x) is the same as y.
It is the same as having
y = 4x^2 - 2/3 x
For each value of x you are given, you can calculate a corresponding value of y. Instead of calling y, y, we call y "f(x)" which is a way of showing that this relation is a function.
If you were given
y = 4x^2 - 2/3 x and were asked to find the value of y when x = 1/4, what would you do?
You would substitute 1/4 for x in the expression 4x^2 - 2/3 x, and you'd find the value of y.
Being asked to find f(1/4) for function f(x) = 4x^2 - 2/3 x means exactly the same. It means what is the value of the function when x = 1/4? What is the y value corresponding to an x value of 1/4?
Let's calculate it:
f(x) = 4x^2 - 2/3 x
To show we are evaluating the function at an x value of 1/4, we use the notation f(1/4). f(1/4) means find the value of y for function f when x = 1/4. We replace x with 1/4 and do the math.
f(1/4) = 4(1/4)^2 - (2/3)(1/4)
f(1/4) = 4(1/16) - 2/12
f(1/4) = 4/16 - 2/12
f(1/4) = 1/4 - 2/12
f(1/4) = 3/12 - 2/12
f(1/4) = 1/12
Answer:
NW = 15.6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
If ΔLMN ~ ΔNWR then:





Find NW by using Pythagoras' Theorem:

(where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse, of a right triangle)
Given:
- a = RN = 6 cm
- b = RW = 14.4 cm
- c = NW
Substituting the given values into the formula and solving for NW:




sin(0) = opposite/hypotenuse = 2/5
cos(0) = adjacent/hypotenuse = sqrt21/5
tan(0) = opposite/adjacent = 2/sqrt21 * sqrt21/sqrt21 = 2sqrt21/21
cot(0) = adjacent/opposite = sqrt21/2
sec(0) = hypotenuse/adjacent = 5sqrt21/21
A trapezoid falls under the definition.
Hope it helped!
