Answer:

The ∠B prime A prime C prime  in the resulting figure = 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the right triangle = A( -1, 4), B(-1, 8) and C(3, 4)

The rotation 90° counterclockwise of a point on a preimage (x, y) gives the coordinates of the location of the point of the image after rotation as (-y, x)

Therefore we have;

Applying 90° counterclockwise rotation we have;

  • The point A(-1, 4) is relocated to the point (-4, -1)
  • The point B(-1, 8) is relocated to the point (-8, -1)
  • The point C(3, 4) is relocated to the point (-4, 3)

Applying a translation T(-2, -3) to the new points above which is a translation 2 units left and 3 units down, we have;

The coordinates of the point A prime is (-4 - 2, -1 - 3) = (-6, -4)

The coordinates of the point B prime is (-8 - 2, -1 - 3) = (-10, -4)

The coordinates of the point C prime is (-4 - 2, 3 - 3) = (-6, 0)

The coordinates of the vertices of the triangle ΔA prime B prime C prime are A prime (-6, -4) B prime (-10, -4) C prime (-6, 0)

The measure of the angle ∠B prime A prime C prime  is given as follows;

Length of a segment of each segment of the triangle are found using the following equation;

l = \sqrt{\left (x_{2}-x_{1}  \right )^{2}+\left (y_{2}-y_{1}  \right )^{2}}

Which gives;

Length of B prime A prime = √(((-10) - (-6))² + ((-4) - (-4))²) = 4

Length of B prime C prime = √(((-10) - (-6))² + ((-4) - 0)²) = 32 = 4·√2

Length of C prime A prime = √(((-6) - (-6))² + ((0) - (-4))²) = 4

∴ B prime C prime is the hypotenuse side and the ∠B prime A prime C prime = The angle opposite to the hypotenuse side = 90°

The ∠B prime A prime C prime  in the resulting figure = 90°

If the side lengths of a cube are 14 feet, what is the correct way to write the expression to represent the volume of the cube i
Kryger [21]

Answer: Choice A) 14^3

This is the same as writing 14^3

===================================================

Explanation:

Since all the sides are 14 feet long, we can basically say length = width = height = 14.

Or put another way:

  • length = 14
  • width = 14
  • height = 14

The volume of the cube is length*width*height = 14*14*14 = 14^3 = 2744 cubic feet.

-----------

The term 14^3 has a base of 14 and exponent of 3.

The base is what we multiply out while the exponent tells us how many copies of the base to multiply. In this problem, we have 3 copies of 14 being multiplied. So that's why 14^3 = 14*14*14

If you were to say something like 3^14, then you would have 14 copies of 3 multiplied out, which is a much larger value. So we'll cross choice B off the list.

Choice C isn't correct either since again we're using exponents and not multiplication to tie together the 14 and 3.

Choice D would be correct if your teacher wanted it in expanded form, instead of exponent form.
