Assume that two ordered triplets are going to be formed INDEPENDENTLY one after another, using the available set of 7 items. Compute the probability that the first triplet contains a or b (or both) and the second triplet includes at most one of the a or d (neither or one of the given two). Explain your steps briefly, without any unnecessary details.

answer: 180

step-by-step explanation:

12-2=10

20-2=18

10x18=180

c.   x=2.4cm

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
