Answer:

Reflection is when light bounces off an object. If the surface is smooth and shiny, like glass, water or polished metal, the light will reflect at the same angle as it hit the surface. This is called specular reflection. Light reflects from a smooth surface at the same angle as it hits the surface.

Answer:

Hi, There!

Part A: tell me the Characteristics of a Reflection

There are several important characteristics of a reflection:

A reflection maps a line to a line, a ray to a ray, a segment to a segment, and an angle to an angle. Each piece of the original pre-image is exactly the same in the image.

A reflection preserves lengths of segments. The length of a line segment will be the same in a reflection.

A reflection preserves degrees of angles. The angles of the image are congruent to the angles in the pre-image.

Part B:

Rigid transformation: Moving a figure so that it is in a new location but has the same size, shape, and area. A mathematical reflection is a type of rigid transformation

Part C:

what is Line of reflection: The line over which a pre-image is reflected to create a new image

What is the center of the circle for this equation:<br> (x + 3)² + (y - 2)² = 25

Ksju [112]

The formula for the equation of a circle is (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) is the center of the circle and <em>r</em> is the radius.

So we need to find the values of (h, k) in order to find the center of the circle.

If we simply line up the equation of our given circle with our formula,

we can see that -h = 3 or h = -3 and -k = -2 so k = 2.

So now we have our answer.

center ⇒ (-3, 2)

The ratio of dogs to cats being treated at a veterinarian's office this week is 5 : 2. Suppose there are 168 dogs and cats sched

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

48 cats

Step-by-step explanation:

Am interesting factoid about ratios:

The ratio $a:b$ can be separated into fractional parts of $\frac{a}{a + b}$ and $\frac{b}{a + b}$ . We need to know the cat part. $\frac{2}{5 + 2} = \frac{2}{7}$ , so that is the fraction part. Then, we multiply this fraction by 168 to get the total number of cats. This number is 48.
