Please Help!!! Triangle ABC Is Similar To Triangle PQRAB = 4cmPQ=12cmRQ= 16.5 CmAC = XcmPR= Ycm (a) Calculate

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5.5

3y = x

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Find the scale factor enlargement

12 ÷ 4 = 3

→ Divide 16.5 by 3

5.5

→ Write SF in terms of x and y

3y = x

Answer 2

The Length of BC is 5.5 cm and equation for y in terms of x is y = 3x

What are similarity in triangles?

Two triangles are similar if they have the same ratio of corresponding sides and equal pair of corresponding angles. If two or more figures have the same shape, but their sizes are different, then such objects are called similar figures.

According to question

Triangle ABC ≅ triangle PQR  

where,

AB = 4cm

PQ=12cm

RQ= 16.5 cm

AC = xcm

PR= ycm

According to the similarity rule

the same ratio of corresponding sides

therefore,

[tex]\frac{AB}{PQ} = \frac{BC}{QR} = \frac{AC}{PR} \\[/tex]

(a) Calculate the length of BC

[tex]\frac{AB}{PQ} = \frac{BC}{QR}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{4}{12} = \frac{BC}{16.5}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{1}{3} = \frac{BC}{16.5}[/tex]

⇒ BC = 5.5 cm

 (b) Write down an expression for y in terms of x

we know  ,  [tex]\frac{AB}{PQ} = \frac{AC}{PR} \\[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{4}{12} = \frac{x}{y} \\[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{1}{3} = \frac{x}{y} \\[/tex]

⇒ [tex]y=3x[/tex]

Hence, Length of BC is 5.5 cm and equation for y = 3x

A scale model of a ramp is a right triangular prism as given in this figure. in the actual ramp, the triangular base has a height of 0.5 yards. what is the surface area of the actual ramp, including the underside? enter your answer as a decimal in the box.

Answers

The surface area of the actual ramp including the underside is 16.8 ft²

The height of the actual ramp = 1.2 feet  

The height of the model = 6 cm

What is the surface area of a right triangular prism?

A right triangular prism is a 3-dimensional triangle with two congruent triangular faces and 3 rectangular faces that connect the triangular.

The surface area of a right triangular prism

= (Perimeter of the base × Length of the prism) + (2 × Base Area)

Scale factor = 1.2 feet / 6 cm = 0.2 ft/cm

Actual base = 16 cm × 0.2 ft/cm = 3.2 ft

convert the units

9 cm = 9 cm × 0.2 ft/cm = 1.8 ft

10 cm = 10 cm × 0.2 ft/cm = 2 ft

The surface area of a right triangular prism

= (Perimeter of the base × Length of the prism) + (2 × Base Area)

Surface area of actual ramp = 2(0.5 × 3.2 ft × 1.2 ft) + 2(2 ft × 1.8 ft) + (1.8 ft × 3.2 ft)

= 16.8 ft²

Hence, the surface area of the actual ramp including the underside is 16.8 ft²

A train track through a mountain is 1600 feet long and makes an angle of 1.6 with the horizontal. What is the change in elevation from one end of the tunnel to the other.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

law of sine :

a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC

with the sides and correlating angles being always opposite to each other.

we are dealing with a right-angled triangle here.

the train track is the Hypotenuse (the side opposite of the 90° angle) : 1600 ft.

the horizontal level "connection" from beginning to the end of the track is one leg, and the elevation difference at the end of the track is the second leg.

the 2 legs enclose a 90° angle, as the elevation goes straight up from the horizontal level.

so, we have

1600/sin(90) = elevation difference / sin(1.6)

sin(90) = 1

1600 = elevation difference / sin(1.6)

elevation difference = 1600 × sin(1.6) =

= 1600 × 0.027921639... =

= 44.67462196... ft

≈ 44.7 ft

Answer:

Explanation:

A square has four congruent angles as each angle measure is 90°. A square can never have an angle other than 90°. A square also has all four equal sides, and its opposite side lengths are parallel because all angles of a square must be 90°.

_______________

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

To find "x", substitute the value of "y" in any equation. I do it in the first

[tex]4x=30-10\\x=20/4=5[/tex]

Hope this helps

Answer:

i got you

Step-by-step explanation:

first you will make the easiest equation into y=mx+b

2x=5y=20

subtract 2x from it self and 20, you will eliminate the 5 but keep the y then you will get y=2x+20

then you will substitute it into the y in the other equation 4x+5(2x+20)=30

after doin that you will multiply 5 by both the number in the parenthesis

4x+15x+100=30 add like terms 4x+15x =

19x+100=30 subtract 100 fromm itself and 30 you will get -70

-70 divided by 19x then you will get your answer

The unitary method is a process by which we find the value of a single unit from the value of multiple units and the value of multiple units from the value of a single unit.

If 8 parts take 20 minutes to make then 1 part take x time which is equal to;

[tex]\rm x=\dfrac{20}{8}\\\\x= 2.5 \rm \ minute[/tex]

One part takes 2.5 minutes.

The minutes does it take to make 6 parts are;

the third side can be gotten by pythagoras theorem;

so,

hyp^2=30^2 + 40^2

hyp^2=900+1600

hyp^2=2500

square rooting both sides,

hyp=50ft

Therefore the missing side is 50ft

5) for number 5

opp is missing

remember,

hyp^2=opp^2+adj^2

opp^2= hyp^2-adj^2

It can be useful to think of an exponent as indicating repeated multiplication: 2^3 = 2×2×2, for example. Of course, the repeated multiplication can be nested: (4^2)^3 = (4^2)×(4^2)×(4^2) = (4×4)×(4×4)×(4×4) = 4^6
