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°

Solve the equation and check your solution. (If there is no solution, enter NO SOLUTION.) (4x − 6) divided by (4x+3) = 2/3
iren [92.7K]

\frac{4x-6}{4x+3} = \frac{2}{3}  \\  \\ 3(4x-6) = 2(4x+3)  \\  \\ 12x - 18 = 8x +6 \\  \\ 4x = 24 \\  \\ x = 6

Z varies directly as x2. If z = 16 when x = 2, find z when x = 5.<br> ...<br> Z=
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

it is a bit unclear to me, what that problem description means.

if I understand it correctly, than z is directly depending on x².

so, z = 16 for x = 2. x² = 4

I pondered a little bit, as there are several possibilities to connect 16 with 4 as a driving factor (e.g. 2⁴ = 16, 4×4 = 16, 12 + 4 = 16).

I decided to go with the simplest interpretation with the usual meaning of "varies" (multiplication) : 4×x²

that would mean

z = 4×x² = 4×5² = 4×25 = 100
