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°

the RATIO of floor seats to balcony seats in a theaters is 20:1. does this theater have more floor seats or more balcony seats?
GalinKa [24]
Yes, this theater has more floor seats than balcony seats simply because of the ratio. Your answer is actually in the question. For example, if you have 100 floor seats, then according to the ratio you should only have 5 balcony seats.  So yes, there are more floor seats than balcony seats.
