3. Vocabulary Suppose △MNP ∼△RST. How can you identify corresponding parts?

Mathematics

MakcuM [25]2 years ago

Similar triangles may or may not have congruent sides, but the ratio of the corresponding sides will always be congruent.

<u>(3) Corresponding sides of △MNP and △RST</u>

Given that △MNP ∼△RST.

This means that, the corresponding sides are:

  • MN and RS
  • MP and RT
  • NP and ST

<u>(4) The equal measures</u>

Given that △ABC ∼△TUV

This means that, the corresponding angles are equal, but corresponding sides are not.

So, the equal measures are:

  • (a). the measures of ∠A and ∠T
  • (c). the ratios of the sides BC/UV and AC/TV

The unequal measure is:

  • (b). the perimeters of the two triangles

<u>(c) Scale mapping</u>

The scale mapping is given as:

Ratio = 1\ in : 100\ mi

The above scale means that 1 inches on the scale represents 100 miles of the actual distance.

Take for instance, 5 inches would represent 500 miles.

500 is 5 times 100

Hence, the actual distance between two towns 100 times the map distance between the two towns

Ella has 0.5 lbs of sugar. How much water should she add to make the following concentrations? Tell Ella how much syrup she will
HACTEHA [7]

Ella has to add 32.833 lbs of water to get 33.333 lbs of syrup.

<u>Solution:</u>

Ella has 0.5 lbs of sugar. Let x lbs be the amount of water Ella should add to get the 1.5% of syrup,

\Rightarrow0.5\text{ lbs }- 1.5\%

\Rightarrow x+0.5\text{ lbs }- 100\%

On writing the proportion,

\Rightarrow\dfrac{0.5}{x+0.5}=\dfrac{1.5}{100}\\ \\\Rightarrow0.5\cdot 100=(x+0.5)\cdot 1.5\\ \\\Rightarrow50=1.5x+0.75\\ \\\Rightarrow1.5x=50-0.75\\ \\\Rightarrow1.5x=49.25\\ \\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{49.25}{1.5}\approx 32.833\ lbs

To get 1.5% syrup Ella should add 32.833 lbs of water. The total weight of syrup is 33.333 lbs.

Pls someone answer pls :)
Goshia [24]

Answer:

(-x-2) (-2x -3)=0

=>[-(x +2)] [-(2x+3)]=0

=>(x + 2)(2x +3)=0

=>x =-2 or,x=-3/2

smaller x=-2

larger x =-3/2
