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

You would just plug the values into the slope-intercept formula which is y=mx+b. m is representative of the slope, and b is representative of the y-intercept. The equation would be y=-9x+5

Answer:

<h3><u>Let's</u><u> </u><u>understand the concept</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

Here angle B is 90°

So \triangle ABC and \triangle ABD Are right angled triangle

So we use Pythagoras thereon for solution

<h3><u>Required Answer</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
  • First in triangle ABC

perpendicular=p=8cm

Hypontenuse =h =10cm

  • We need to find base=b

According to Pythagoras thereon

{\boxed{\sf b^2=h^2-p^2}}

  • Substitutethe values

\longrightarrow\sf b^2=10^2-p^2

\longrightarrow\sf b={\sqrt {10^2-8^2}}

\longrightarrow\sf b={\sqrt{100-64}}

\longrightarrow\bf b={\sqrt {36}}

\longrightarrow\sf b=6

\therefore\overline{BC}=6cm

  • BD=BC+CD

\longrightarrowBD=9+6

\longrightarrowBD=15cm

  • Now in \triangle ABD

Perpendicular=p=8cm

Base =b=15cm

  • We need to find Hypontenuse =AD(x)

According to Pythagoras thereon

{\boxed {\sf h^2=p^2+b^2}}

  • Substitute the values

\longrightarrow\sf h^2=8^2+15^2

\longrightarrow\sf h={\sqrt {8^2+15^2}}

\longrightarrow\sf h={\sqrt {64+225}}

\longrightarrow\sf h={\sqrt {289}}

\longrightarrow\sf h=17cm

\therefore{\underline{\boxed{\bf x=17cm}}}

In 3 years, Dianna will be 4 times as old as she was 33 years ago. How old is Dianna now? Choose the most logical value for the
Masteriza [31]
<span>Today's age = x

4(x - 33) = x + 3
4x - 132 = x + 3
4x - x = 3 + 132
3x = 135
x = 135/3
x = 45

Answer:
Dianna is 45 years old now.
