Question 1

The angles 52 degrees match up. So if the sides are in proportion, then the triangles are similar.

Notice how 8/12 = 18/27 is a true equation. So the sides are in proportion to one another.

Therefore, the triangles are similar. I used the SAS similarity theorem.

Question 2

Let's find the missing angle of the triangle on the right. For now, make that missing angle to be x.

Rule: For any triangle, the three angles always add up to 180

x+70+32 = 180

x+102 = 180

x = 180-102

x = 78

The missing angle of the triangle on the left is 78 degrees

Repeat for the other triangle as well

y+78+32 = 180

y+110 = 180

y = 180-110

y = 70

Both triangles have the angles 32, 70, 78 in whatever order you wish.

Since the angles match up like this, the triangles are similar because of the AA Similarity theorem

Technically, we only need 2 pairs of congruent angles at minimum. But having 3 congruent pairs doesn't hurt either.

Question 3

We have a pair of congruent 54 degree angles shown. There's another pair of angles at the very top that overlap (aka shared angles).

Since we have two pairs of congruent angles, the two triangles are similar.

This time we use the AA Similarity theorem

Question 4

Let's divide the longest side of the bottom triangle by the longest side of the triangle on top

48/32 = 1.5

Now let's divide the shortest sides of each triangle in the same order

36/24 = 1.5

Repeat for the middle-most sides

45/30 = 1.5

We get the same linear scale factor 1.5 each time. Therefore, the triangles are similar due to the SSS Similarity theorem

Question 5

Any angle is equal to itself due to the reflexive property. So that will go for reason number 2.

Reason 3 is SAS similarity because we have the sides in proportion (statement 1) and the angles are congruent (statement 2).

Answer from: Quest

$x=\frac{3}{4}$

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

$-6+2x=6x-9$

since, we have to isolate x on anyone side

so, we can move all x terms on one side

subtract both sides by 2x

$-6+2x-2x=6x-9-2x$

$-6=4x-9$

add both sides by 9

$-6+9=4x-9+9$

$3=4x$

divide both sides by 4

we get

$x=\frac{3}{4}$

Consider this equation. |y + 6| = 2 what can be concluded of the equation? check all that apply. there will be one solution. there will be two solutions. the solution to –(y + 6) = 2 will be also be a solution to the given absolute value equation. the solution(s) will be the number(s) on the number line 2 units away from –6. the value of y must be positive since the variable is inside absolute value signs.
