Question 1

The angles 52 degrees match up. So if the sides are in proportion, then the triangles are similar.

Notice how 8/12 = 18/27 is a true equation. So the sides are in proportion to one another.

Therefore, the triangles <u>are similar</u>. I used the <u>SAS similarity theorem</u>.

================================================================

Question 2

Let's find the missing angle of the triangle on the right. For now, make that missing angle to be x.

Rule: For any triangle, the three angles always add up to 180

x+70+32 = 180

x+102 = 180

x = 180-102

x = 78

The missing angle of the triangle on the left is 78 degrees

Repeat for the other triangle as well

y+78+32 = 180

y+110 = 180

y = 180-110

y = 70

Both triangles have the angles 32, 70, 78 in whatever order you wish.

Since the angles match up like this, <u>the triangles are similar</u> because of the <u>AA Similarity theorem</u>

Technically, we only need 2 pairs of congruent angles at minimum. But having 3 congruent pairs doesn't hurt either.

================================================================

Question 3

We have a pair of congruent 54 degree angles shown. There's another pair of angles at the very top that overlap (aka shared angles).

Since we have two pairs of congruent angles, <u>the two triangles are similar</u>.

This time we use the <u>AA Similarity theorem</u>

================================================================

Question 4

Let's divide the longest side of the bottom triangle by the longest side of the triangle on top

48/32 = 1.5

Now let's divide the shortest sides of each triangle in the same order

36/24 = 1.5

Repeat for the middle-most sides

45/30 = 1.5

We get the same linear scale factor 1.5 each time. Therefore, <u>the triangles are similar</u> due to the <u>SSS Similarity theorem</u>

================================================================

Question 5

Any angle is equal to itself due to the <u>reflexive property</u>. So that will go for reason number 2.

Reason 3 is <u>SAS similarity</u> because we have the sides in proportion (statement 1) and the angles are congruent (statement 2).

Answer:

Question 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2) The time when she woke up was -  3° C

During nature walk, temperature got 3° C warmer than when she woke up.

So, temperature during nature walk = - 3 + 3 = 0° C

Could y’all help me out with this?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

M' (5,-1)

D' (5,1)

A' (3,4)

W' (4,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the coordinates of Quadrilateral MDAW with vertices M(-1, 5), D(1,5), A(4,3), and W(-1,4) after a reflection across y = x.

We can find these coordinates by following the following rule:

Reflection over y = x rule : ( x , y ) ---> ( y , x )

Explanation of rule: Simply swap the places of the x and y values.

Applying rule to given coordinates:

M(-1,5) -----> swap x and y values -----> M'(5,-1)

D(1,5) ----> swap x and y values -----> D'(5,1)

A(4,3) -----> swap x and y values -----> A'(3,4)

W(-1,4) -----> swap x and y values -----> W'(4,-1)

So the coordinates of Quadrilateral MDAW  after a reflection over the y = x  line are M'(5,-1) , D'(5,1) , A'(3,4) , W'(4,-1)

For which positive integer values of $k$ does $kx^2+20x+k=0$ have rational solutions? Express your answers separated by commas a
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

-10,10

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is

k {x}^{2}  + 20x + k = 0

The discriminant of this equation is given by;

D =  {b}^{2}  - 4ac

where a=k, b=20, c=k

For rational solutions, the discriminant must be zero.

{20}^{2}  - 4 \times k \times k = 0

Simplify to get:

400 - 4  {k}^{2}  = 0

This implies that:

400  = 4  {k}^{2}

100 =  {k}^{2}

Take square root to get:

k =   \pm\sqrt{100}

k =  \pm10

k =  - 10 \: or \: k = 10

140 degrees decreased by 65%
BaLLatris [955]
Hey there! 
<span>Here are the steps involved: 
</span>
1.Change 65% into a decimal. Move the decimal two places to the left and you get 0.65.

2. Multiply 0.65 by 50.
<span>140 x 0.65 = 91.

3. Since you are decreasing 140 by 65%, subtract 140 by 91. 
140-91= 49
