Answer:

Comparing each pair of lines,

AB and EF,

BC and FG,

CD and GH,

DA and HE.

For, AB and EF,

If we take a look at both the lines they are the mirror image of each other, the distance between point A and B is 1 unit upwards, and 2 unit sidewise, similarly between point E and F the distance is 1 unit upwards, and 2 unit sidewise. therefore, the length of both the lines is the same.

Also, we can use the formula, for the distance between two points on a coordinate plane,

As we can see in the image,

A = (-1, 1),

B = (-3, 2),

C = (-4, 4),

D = (-2, 6),

E = (2, 0),

F = (4, 1),

G = (5, 3),

H = (3, 5),

Solving using the formula,

AB = EF = √5,

BC = FG = √5,

CD = GH = √8,

DA = HE = √26,

Therefore, the length of all the sides of the polygon are the same,

Hence, the two figures are congruent.

Dear Math Helper,

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

n = 98, that is, she scored at the 98th percentile.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

She scored 38, so $X = 38$
