Solve similar triangles (advanced)

Mathematics
1 answer:
andrew11 [14]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 similar triangles.

EDA and CBA

From that we can get the following proportion.

ED / CB = AD / AB

Filling in the letters we get

6/x = (4 + 3)/3            Combine

6/x = 7/3                    Cross Multiply

7x =6*3

7x = 18                        Divide by 7

x = 2.57

Answer:

The last option is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

A translation of 2 units down takes S to the point (1, -1). Then a counterclockwise rotation  about the origin  takes S to the point  (-1, -1)  where we have S' .

Of the cartons produced by a company, 8% have a puncture, 7% have a smashed corner, and 0.7% have both a puncture and a smashed
Viktor [21]

Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected carton has a puncture or a smashed corner is 0.143

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B).

    since given that P(A) = Probability of getting puncture = 0.08

                                P(B) = probability of getting smashed corner = 0.07

                       P(A∩B) = probability of getting both puncture and smashed corner = 0.007

                    P(A∪B) = probability of getting any of them

   so P(A∪B) = 0.08 + 0.07 -0.007 = O.143

Which dimensions can create more than one triangle? A. Three angles measuring 75°,45°, and 60°. B. 3 sides measuring 7, 10, 12?
NeTakaya

This is vague.  Any dimensions that make a triangle can make more than one, just draw another right next to it.  What's really being asked is which dimensions can make more than one non-congruent triangle.

<span>A. Three angles measuring 75°,45°, and 60°.

That's three angles, and 75+45+60 = 180, so it's a legit triangle. The angles don't determine the sides, so we have whole family of similar triangles with these dimensions.  TRUE

<span>B. 3 sides measuring 7, 10, 12?

</span>Three sides determine the triangles size and shape uniquely; FALSE

<em>C. Three angles measuring 40</em></span><span><em>°</em></span><em>, 50°</em><span><em>, and 60°? </em>

40+50+60=150, no such triangle exists.  FALSE

<em>D. 3 sides measuring 3,4,and 5</em>

Again, three sides uniquely determine a triangle's size and shape;  FALSE

URGENT PLEASE HELP
Inga [223]

Answer:

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 3x - 3 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 3

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{3}, hence

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation of the perpendicular line

To find c substitute (3, 1) into the partial equation

1 = - 1 + c ⇒ c = 1 + 1 = 2

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + 2 ← equation of perpendicular line
