Triangle DEF has vertices D(0,0), E(7,0), and F(3,7).

Mathematics

Answer:

(3, 1.7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point at which the vertices of a triangle meet is known as the orthocenter of the triangle. The orthocenter passes through the vertex of the triangle and is perpendicular to the opposite sides.

Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1.

The slope of the line joining D(0,0), F(3,7) is:

m_1=\frac{7-0}{3-0}=\frac{7}{3}

The slope of the line perpendicular to the line joining D and F is -3/7. The orthocenter is perpendicular to the line joining D and F and passes through vertex E(7, 0). The equation is hence:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-0=-\frac{3}{7} (x-7)\\\\y=-\frac{3}{7}x+3 \ .\ .\ .\ (1)

The slope of the line joining E(7,0), and F(3,7). is:

m_1=\frac{7-0}{3-7}=-\frac{7}{4}

The slope of the line perpendicular to the line joining E and F is 4/7. The orthocenter is perpendicular to the line joining E and F and passes through vertex D(0, 0). The equation is hence:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-0=\frac{4}{7} (x-0)\\\\y=\frac{4}{7} x\ .\ .\ .\ (2)

The point of intersection of equation 1 and equation 2 is the orthocenter. Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:

x = 3, y = 1.7

What is a similar rectangle?
amid [387]
<h3>What are similar shapes?</h3>

When applying a scale factor, similar shapes are enlarged versions of one another. All of the matching angles and lengths in related shapes are equal and in the same ratio.

Rectangle is also a kind of shape. So, defining similar rectangle two rectangles must have proportional sides in order for them to be identical (form equal ratios) i.e., ratio of the two longer sides should equal the ratio of the two shorter sides.

Steps to find similar rectangle in math:

  1. Choose the pairs of corresponding sides on each side.
  2. Determine the sides' ratios.
  3. Verify that the ratios are identical.
