Answer:
Yes, the shapes are similar. Note, the angles are equivalent and the sides are scales of each other satisfying the requirements for similarly.
Step-by-step explanation:
For a shape to be similar there are two conditions that must be met. (1) Must have equivalent angles (2) Sides must be related by a scalar.
In the two triangles presented, the first condition is met since each triangle has three angles, 90-53-37.
To test if the sides are scalar, each side must be related to a corresponding side of the other triangle with the same scalar.
9/6 = 3/2
12/8 = 3/2
15/10 = 3/2
Alternatively:
6/9 = 2/3
8/12 = 2/3
10/15 = 2/3
Since the relationship of the sides is the scalar 3/2 (Alternatively 2/3), then we can say the triangles meet the second condition.
Given that both conditions are satisfied, then we can say these triangles are similar.
Note, this is a "special case" right triangle commonly referred to as a 3-4-5 right triangle.
Cheers.
Answer:
2.75
Step-by-step explanation:
0.10 represents the rate at which prices have increased since 1980..
2.75 represents the price in 1980
This can be confirmed by inputting 0 as the value of x.
2.75+0.10(0) = 2.75
You have to take $8,550 times 0.12 (12%) to find out the number it is being decreased by.
8,550 x 0.12 = 1,026
And then, you have to subtract 1,026 from 8,550 three times for three years and your answer becomes 5,472.
$5,472
When looking for the midpoint of a segment defined by two end points, the average of both coordinates are taken. Averaging the 2 x-coordinates give the new x-coordinate, and the same applies for the y-coordinate. This is shown below:
Midpoint = ( (1 + 4)/2 , (-1 + -6)/2 )
Midpoint = (2.5 , -3.5)
Answer:
120 deg
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a horizontal line that passes vertices of 2 angles 125 deg and 115 deg.
This line is perpendicular with 2 vectors.
Apply the property of vertical angles and the sum of 3 angles in a triangle.
x = 180 - (125 - 90) - (115 - 90) = 120 deg
