To find the vertex use -b/2a (for the x value which is also the axis of symmetry)
So 2/-2 = -1 Therefore the axis of symmetry is x=-1 Plug in for the y value:
y= -(-1)^2 -2(-1) + 1 y=-1 + 2 + 1 y=2 Vertex (-1,2)

The vertex can be found by finding when the derivative is equal to zero (velocity is zero)

dy/dx=-2x-2

dy/dx=0 when -2x-2=0, -2x=2, x=-1

y(-1)=-(-1^2)-2(-1)+1

y(-1)=-1+2+1=2

So the vertex is at the point (-1,2) and the axis of symmetry is the line:

x=-1

Please help with this!!! Im so confused, I will mark brainliest if right!! Explain

Answer: Yes these triangles are similar

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets write down what we know just to make life easier

x=9

TL should be similar to CH

LY should be similar to KH

The angles should be equal due to SAS

So the first thing we know is true is the fact that they have equal angles. Now we have to find out if the sides are similar or if they change by the same ratio to the other. If TL is similar to CH and TL=25  and CH=10 what is the change in size or dilation. Division should do the trick so 25/10=2.5 so TY is greater than CH by a factor of 10. Which means that LY should also be greater than KH by a factor of 2.5. If we are told that x=9 than side LY or 4(9)-1=35 and KH 9+5=14

So side KH is 14 and LY is 35. Now to check if they are similar then KH should be greater by a factor of 2.5. If this is not true than the sides are not similar.  35/2.5=14

Since 35 divided by 2.5 is 14 we can tell both sides TL and LY are greater than KH and CH by a factor of 2.5

Hope this helps.

Answer:

In triangle ABC and triangle CDA

AB=CD(given)

BC=DA(given)

AC=AC(common)

Thus triangle ABC and triangle CDA are congruent by SSS rule
