Answer:

4.8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>See comment for complete question</em>

Represent the larger triangle with 1 and the smaller with 2.

So, we have:

H_1 =6\ in -- height of 1

Required

Determine H2 --- Height of 2

To do this we apply dilation formula.

Original * Scale\ Factor = New

In this case:

H_1 * Scale\ Factor = H_2

Substitute 6 for H1 and 0.8 for Scale Factor

6* 0.8 = H_2

4.8= H_2

Hence, the height of the smaller triangle is 4.8 inches

Which transformations can be used to carry ABCD onto itself? The point of
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

For A, y=2 is the axis of vertical symmetry, meaning a reflection would map the shape onto itself.

For B, x=3 is the axis of horizontal symmetry, meaning a reflection would map the shape onto itself.

For C, a rotation of 90 degrees would make the shape taller vertically and shorter horizontally, therefore it would be wrong.

For D, a translation two units down would move all points down, even though some would need to go up, therefore it would be wrong.

Which option is correct for finding x?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

35 degrees is correct(I might be wrong though.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a vertical angle question,3x° = 70 + x°

Therefore,3x - x = 2 x,making 2x=70.

so x= 70÷ 2=35. Again- I might be wrong-
