Well, solve for x.
Combine like terms by performing the opposite operation of subtracting 4x on both sides of the equation
The 4x's will cross out on the right
4x - 4x = 0x = 0
On the left:
2x - 4x = -2x
Now the equation looks like:
-2x + 3 = 2
Continue to combine like terms by subtracting 3 on both sides of the equation
On the left:
3 - 3 = 0
On the right:
2 - 3 = -1
Equation:
-2x = -1
Isolate x by performing the opposite operation of dividing -2 on both sides of the equation
On the left:
-2x ÷ -2 = 1
On the right:
-1 ÷ -2 = 1/2
x= 1/2
So, there is only one solution: 1/2
Given the triangle
PQR
with points
P(8,0)
Q(6,2)
R(-2,-4)
And the triangle
P'Q'R'
with points
P'(4,0)
Q'(3,1)
R'(-1,-2)
Part A. Scale factor
Using the vertex
P( 8, 0)
P'(4,0)
the dilatation factor is given by
The triangle has a dilatation factor of 1/2
Part B:
P''Q''R'' after using P'Q'R' reflected about the y axis
to make a reflection over the y axis
coordinates (x,y) turn into coordinates (-x,y)
as follows
Then triangle P''Q''R'' has coordinates
P''(-4,0)
Q''(-3,1)
R''(1,-2)
Part C:
PQR is congruent to P''Q''R''?
Congruent triangles are triangles that have the same size and shape. This means that the corresponding sides are equal and the corresponding angles are equal.
Then the triangles are not congruent
30.2 is correct according to PEMDAS
Answer:
Yes they are similar.
There are three similarity criteria for triangles.
The first one (AAA) , your case, says that two triangles are similar if their corresponding angles are equal.
The second one (SAS) says that two triangles are similar if two sides have lengths in the same ratio and the angles that are included in these two sides are equal.
The third one (SSS) says that two triangles are similar of all of their sides have lengths in the same ratio.
About the first criteria, you actually need only two corresponding angles to be the same, because the third will always be the difference between 180° and the two angles.
Remember that you CANNOT exceed 180° for the sum of the three angles of a triangle.
And remember also that similarity involves correspondence in sides and angles. Two triangles, with same angles, but mirrored, are not similar!
