Find the unknown lengths in the pair of similar triangles

Mathematics
1 answer:
777dan777 [17]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a = 3

b = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the corresponding sides of two similar triangles are always equal. Therefore,

9/a = 18/6 = 6/b

✔️Let's solve for a:

9/a = 18/6

9/a = 3

Cross multiply

a*3 = 9

Divide both sides by 3

a = 9/3

a = 3

✔️Let's find b:

18/6 = 6/b

3 = 6/b

3*b = 6

b = 6/3

b = 2

Answer:

d= 71518 kilometers

Explanation:

A diameter is twice the radius. Here, we can use the formula d=2r (d=diameter r=radius)

Solve 3x – ly= 11 and -2x – 4y=-26 by elimination
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

(5, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

3x - y = 11 → (1)

- 2x - 4y = - 26 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by - 4 and adding to (2) will eliminate the y- term

- 12x + 4y = - 44 → (3)

Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

- 14x + 0 = - 70

- 14x = - 70 ( divide both sides by - 14 )

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (1)

3(5) - y = 11

15 - y = 11 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

- y = - 4 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

y = 4

solution is (5, 4 )
