AABC is similar to ADEF. The measure of AC = 10, the measure of DE=8, the measure of BC = 6, and the measure of DF = 20.
Find the measures of AB and EF.



Answers

Answer 1

The measure of AB and EF for the similar triangle ABC and DEF are 4 and 12 respectively.

What are similar triangles?

Similar triangles are triangles that have the same shape, but their sizes may vary.

In similar triangles, corresponding sides are always in the same ratio. The angles are congruent.

ΔABC is similar to ΔDEF. Therefore, the sides will form a ratio.

AC / DF = BC / EF = AB/DE

AC = 10

DF = 20

DE = 8

BC = 6

Hence,

10 / 20 = AB / 8

cross multiply

20AB = 80

AB = 80 / 20

AB = 4

Hence,

10 / 20 = 6 / EF

10EF = 120

EF = 120 / 10

EF = 12

Find the turning point of y=x^2+10x+12

Answers

Answer:

vertex = (- 5, - 13 )

Step-by-step explanation:

given a quadratic in standard form : y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )

then the x- coordinate of the turning point ( vertex) is

x = - [tex]\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

y = x² + 10x + 12 ← is in standard form

with a = 1, b = 10 , then

x = - [tex]\frac{10}{2}[/tex] = - 5

substitute x = - 5 into the equation and evaluate for y

y = (- 5)² + 10(- 5) + 12 = 25 - 50 + 12 = - 13

turning point = (- 5, - 13 )

Variability ? I'm confused

Answers

Variability in statistics… Let's see...dispersion is the degree to which a percentage is stretched or even squeezed. Some examples of measures of statistical “dispersion” ( or distribution) are the variance, standard deviation, and interquartile span. Like when the variance of data in a set is big; the data is gretaoy dispersed. (Variance is the measure of “variability” and for shorter terms of what I said, it is basically computed by taking the average of squared deviations from the thing.) hope I helped ask me for any questions I’m a 5th grader who likes science.

3. m∠3 = 55°

4. Straight line angle = 180°

5. m∠2 = 50°

What is the Corresponding Angles Theorem?

If two corresponding angles are formed when a transversal intersect parallel lines, they are both congruent based on the corresponding angles theorem.

1. m∠5 = m∠1 (corresponding angles theorem)

m∠5 = 75°

2. Sum of angles in a triangle = 180°

3. m∠3 + m∠4 + m∠5 = 180° (sum of triangle)

Substitute

m∠3 = 180 - 50 - 75 = 55°

4. Straight line angle = 180°

5. m∠2 = 180 - m∠3 + m∠1 (straight line angle)

m∠2 = 180 - 55 - 75

m∠2 = 50°

By definition of absolute value,

x + 5 = 4

please help me find DE

Answers

You can split up the length of AE into the lengths of the line segments connecting adjacent points:

AE = AB + BC + CD + DE

Plug in everything you know and solve for DE :

9 = (2 1/2) + (4 1/3) + (1 2/3) + DE

Rewrite the mixed numbers as improper fractions with a common denominator.

2 1/2 = 4/2 + 1/2 = 5/2 = 15/6

4 1/3 = 12/3 + 1/3 = 13/3 = 26/6

1 2/3 = 3/3 + 2/3 = 5/3 = 10/6

9 = 54/6

So we have

54/6 = 15/6 + 26/6 + 10/6 + DE

⇒   DE = (54 - 15 - 26 - 10)/6 = 3/6 = 1/2

Write the multiplication equation that represents the model

Answers

Answer:

2/3 × 2/5 = 4/15

Step-by-step explanation:

see image. If you just look at the horizontal lines the rectangle is divided into thirds. Two of the sections are highlighted indicating 2 out of 3, or 2/3.

If you then consider the vertical lines. There are 5 sections and 2 out of the 5 are highlighted indicating 2/5.

When you overlap both images (which is what the original image you posted was) you get a small section that is doubly highlighted. In your original image it is kind of purple (I marked them in yellow) In the double-layered image, there are 15 small sections. 4 are highlighted (double-highlighted) This is 4/15.

2/3 × 2/5 = 4/15

I supposed it could also be

2/5 × 2/3 = 4/15

In centimeters, what is the unknown length in this right triangle?
A right triangle with side length 60 centimeters, x, and hypotenuse of 61 centimeters.

Answers

Answer:

Given:-

Side length ( perpendicular = 60 cm)

Hypotenuse = 61 cm

To find :-

Base length

Solution:

By Pythagoras theorem ,

Hypotenuse² = Perpendicular² + Base²

61² = 60² + base²

3721-3600 = Base²

√121 = base

11cm = base

Answer:

Base = x = 11 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question we are given ,

Side length ( Perpendicular ) = 60 cm

Hypotenuse = 61 cm

And we have asked to find the length of base that is denoted by x .

Solution : -

According to Pythagoras Theorem ,

[tex] \longrightarrow \purple{\boxed{H {}^{2} = P {}^{2} + B {}^{2} }} \longleftarrow[/tex]

Where ,

H = Hypotenuse

P = Perpendicular

B = Base

Now , substituting value of hypotenuse, perpendicular and base :

[tex] \hookrightarrow \: 61 {}^{2} = 60 {}^{2} + x {}^{2} [/tex]

Now by squaring 61 and 60 , we get :

[tex] \hookrightarrow \:3721 = 3600 + x {}^{2} [/tex]

Now transposing 3600 to left hand side :

[tex] \hookrightarrow \:3721 - 3600 = x {}^{2} [/tex]

Now subtracting 3600 from 3721 :

[tex] \hookrightarrow \:121 = x {}^{2} [/tex]

[tex] \hookrightarrow \: \sqrt{121} = x[/tex]

We know that 11 × 11 is equal to 121 that means square root of 121 is 11 . So :

[tex] \hookrightarrow \: \red{ \boxed{11 \: cm = x}}[/tex]

x = base

Henceforth, length of base of right triangle is 11 cm .
