Answer: SSS Postulate</h3>
The tickmarks tell us which pairs of sides are the same length.
- AB = BC due to the single tickmarks
- AD = CD due to the double tickmarks
So far we have two pairs of congruent sides.
The third pair of congruent sides are the overlapping or shared sides BD = BD which is true by the reflexive property (anything is congruent to itself).
Overall we have three pairs of congruent sides allowing us to use SSS. Each "S" stands for "Side".
Find out the shape and than put in the formula with the numbers
The scale factor used to create the dilation is 3
You can easily find out by counting the sides
The coordinates of the pre-image are
(-2,-1) , (-2,1) , (-5,1)
the vertical line counts to 2 boxes
the horizontal line counts to 3 boxes
The coordinates of the image are
(4,-1) , (4,5) , (-5,5)
the vertical line counts to 6 boxes
the horizontal line counts to 9 boxes
= 3
= 3
The scale factor is 3
Cross multiply to see if they both have the same product
38, 5-1 over 4 is 4.75 “pounds” that’s $8 per pound sooo 8x4.75
