\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}

Given that,

In <u>triangle TPQ, </u>

  • RS || PQ,

  • RS = 3 cm,

  • PQ = 6 cm,

  • ar(∆ TRS) = 15 sq. cm

As it is given that, <u>RS || PQ</u>

So, it means

⇛∠TRS = ∠TPQ [ Corresponding angles ]

⇛ ∠TSR = ∠TPQ [ Corresponding angles ]

\rm\implies \: \triangle TPQ \:  \sim \: \triangle TRS \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \{AA \}

<u>Now, We know </u>

Area Ratio Theorem,

This theorem states that :- The ratio of the area of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of the squares of corresponding sides.

\rm\implies \:\dfrac{ar( \triangle \: TPQ)}{ar( \triangle \: TRS)}  = \dfrac{ {PQ}^{2} }{ {RS}^{2} }

\rm\implies \:\dfrac{ar( \triangle \: TPQ)}{15}  = \dfrac{ {6}^{2} }{ {3}^{2} }

\rm\implies \:\dfrac{ar( \triangle \: TPQ)}{15}  = \dfrac{36 }{9}

\rm\implies \:\dfrac{ar( \triangle \: TPQ)}{15}  = 4

\rm\implies \:ar( \triangle \: TPQ)  = 60 \:  {cm}^{2}

Answer:

1/64

Step-by-step explanation:

4^ (-11/3) ÷ 4 ^ (-2/3)

We know a^b ÷a^c = a^(b-c)

4 ^(-11/3 - - 2/3)

4^(-11/3 +2/3)

4^(-9/3)

4^ -3

We know a^-b = 1/a^b

1/4^3

1/64

Find (-4) for f(x) = 9(3)^x<br> A. -108<br> B. 1/3<br> C. -729<br> D. 1/9
avanturin [10]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

9(3)^-4

3^2 × (3^-4)

in algebraic expression a^n × a^m = a^n+m

3^2+(-4)

3^-2

but 3^-2 = 1/3²

1/3²= 1/9
