Identify The Correct Explanation For Why The Triangles Are Similar. Then Find OP And MN.Options:A. MN.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct explanation is option B;

B. ∠L ≅ ∠L  By Reflexive Prop. ≅.

Since [tex]\overline {OP}[/tex] ║ [tex]\overline {MN}[/tex], ∠LOP ≅ ∠LMN by the Corr. ∠s Post. Therefore, ΔLOP ~ ΔLMN by AA ~. OP = 2 and MN = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

[tex]\overline {LP}[/tex] = 5

[tex]\overline {NP}[/tex] = 10

[tex]\overline {LN}[/tex] = [tex]\overline {LP}[/tex] + [tex]\overline {NP}[/tex] = 15

[tex]\overline {OP}[/tex] = x - 3

[tex]\overline {MN}[/tex] = x + 1

A two column proof is presented as follows;

Statement    [tex]{}[/tex]      Reason

∠L ≅ ∠L     [tex]{}[/tex]        By Reflexive property of congruency

[tex]\overline {OP}[/tex] ║ [tex]\overline {MN}[/tex]     [tex]{}[/tex]     Given

∠LOP ≅ ∠LMN [tex]{}[/tex]  By the Corresponding angles Postulate

Therefore

ΔLOP ~ ΔLMN [tex]{}[/tex]  By AA similarity Postulate

Where we have that ΔLOP and ΔLMN, we get;

[tex]\overline {OP}[/tex]/[tex]\overline {MN}[/tex]  = [tex]\overline {LP}[/tex]/[tex]\overline {LN}[/tex] = 5/15 = 1/3

∴ (x - 3)/(x + 1) = 1/3

3·(x - 3) = 1·(x + 1)

3·x - 9 = x + 1

3·x - x = 1 + 9 = 10

2·x = 10

x = 10/2 = 5

x = 5

[tex]\overline {OP}[/tex] = (x - 3) = 5 - 3 = 2

[tex]\overline {OP}[/tex] = 2

[tex]\overline {MN}[/tex] = x + 1 = 5 + 1 = 6

[tex]\overline {MN}[/tex] =  6

Therefore, the correct option is ∠L ≅ ∠L  By Reflexive Prop. ≅.

Since [tex]\overline {OP}[/tex] ║ [tex]\overline {MN}[/tex], ∠LOP ≅ ∠LMN by the Corr. ∠s Post. Therefore, ΔLOP ~ ΔLMN by AA ~. OP = 2 and MN = 6.

Louis wants to carpet the rectangular floor of his basement. The basement has an area of 675 square feet. The width of the basement is 1/3
its length. What is the length of Louis's basement?

Answers

I am reading this correctly, the width = 1/3 of the length?

If this is the case, and we know that the area is 675, the equation is as follows.

Width x Length = 675 ft2

X = length

1/3 X  x  X =  675 ft2

To solve for X we have to multiply both sides by 3.

X square 2 = 2601 square feet.

Take the square of each side.

X =  225 sqare feet.

What is the price ofpremium gasoline rounded to the nearestdollar? Rounded to the nearest dime?Rounded to the nearest penny?

Answers

Answer:

$4 (nearest dollar) ;

$4.4 (nearest dime) ;

$4.41 (nearest penny

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual price of premium gasoline is $4.409 per gallon.

A penny = $0.01 or 1 cent

A dime = $0.1 or 10 cent

Price of premium gasoline to the nearest dollar :

$4.409 is rounded to the nearest unit = $4

Price of premium gasoline to the nearest penny : = $4.409 is rounded to the nearest hundredth = $4.41

Price of premium gasoline to the nearest dime : = $4.409 is rounded to the nearest tenth = $4.4

Answer:

Since 1/5 is 0.2

and 1/5 × 9 is 9/5

We can do 0.2 × 9

which you should get 1.8

OR you can do 0.2 + 0.2 + 0.2 +0.2 +0.2 + 0.2 + 0.2 + 0.2 + 0.2 (which is 0.2 added 9 times)

Which also results in 1.8

Answer:

she could mabey multiply 9x0.2=1.8

Step-by-step explanation:

it might be 1.8 because if 1/5=0.2 and she needs to find out what 9/5 is so

What is congruency?

Congruent figures have sides that are the same length and angles that are the same measurement. In other terms, two figures are said to be congruent when they are superimposed upon one another. Even when they are flipped or rotated, they perfectly fit on top of one another.

We have a figure which is similar to parallelogram.

The breadth of the rectangular firls is 20m less than its length.. Find its dimensions if perimeter is 160 m

Answers

Answer: length of the rectangular firls = 50

and the breadth = x-20m= 50-20m =30m

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is given as  2(l+b)

let the length be represented as x

such that the breadth = x-20m

so our expression for the perimeter of the rectangular firls becomes

Perimeter = 2l+ 2b

160= 2x + 2 ( x-20)

160= 2x+ 2x-40

160+40 =4x

200= 4x

x= 200/4

x= 50

So the length of the rectangular firls = 50

and the breadth = x-20m= 50-20m =30m

Answer:

Length =60m

Breadth= 20m

Step-by-step explanation:

Breadth of the rectangular firls = 20m

Perimeter = 160m

Length = X

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L +B)

Where L= Length

           B = Breadth

160 = 2( 20 + X)

160 = 40 +20X

160- 40 =20X

120= 20X

20X = 120

X = 120/20

X = 60

The dimensions are:

Length =60m

Breadth= 20m

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cups of flour = 63 /8

Cake = 7/4 cups

Cookies = 3/2 cups per batch

Flour left after baking cake :

63/8 - 7/4

(63 - 14) / 8

49 / 8

Batch of cookies which can be baked, x

Flour left / cups of flour per batch of cookies

x ≤(49 / 8) ÷ (3 / 2)
