What are similar triangles?The triangles whose corresponding angles are equal and the corresponding sides are in equal proportiion are called similar triangles.
If two triangles are similar
then a₁/a₂=b₁/b₂=c₁/c₂
where a₁, b₁, and c₁ are the sides of one triangle
a₂, b₂, and c₂ are the sides of another triangle
Here it is given that
triangles ΔJLK and ΔRJS are similar.
so by the property of similar triangles,
JR/JL = JS/JK = RS/KL
Given that JR=24
JL=32
JS=12
JK=2x
By using the property
JR/JL = JS/JK
⇒ 24/32 = 12/2x
⇒2x= 12*32/24
⇒2x=16
⇒x=16/2
⇒x=8
Therefore the value of x is 8.

Which of the following best describes a basic postulate of Euclidean
geometry?
A. All circles measure 360°
B. All right triangles are congruent.
C. A straight line segment has a midpoint.
D. A straight line segment can be drawn between any two points.
Answer:
D. A straight line segment can be drawn between any two points.
Step-by-step explanation:
Euclid of Alexandria was famously known and regarded as the founder of geometry, as well as the father of geometry. He was born in the Mid-fourth century, BC and he specialized in the field of Mathematics. Some of his popular works in the field of Mathematics were Euclid's Elements, Euclidean algorithm and Euclidean geometry.
One of the basic postulate of Euclidean geometry is that a straight line segment can be drawn between any two points.
Others include;
I. All right angles are congruent.
II. All straight line segment is indefinitely extendable in a straight line.
if the mean of x1,x2,x3 and x4 is 6 then find the mean of x1+10,x2+8,x3+16 and x4+2
Answer:
f the mean of this set is equal to 20, we can write down the below equation,
20 = (x1 + x2 +x3 + .... + x10)/10
x1 + x2 + x3 + ... x10 = 200
Then we can also write an equation for the mean of the given numbers as below,
Mean = [(x1+4) + (x2+8) + (x3+12) + .... + (x10+40)]/10
= (x1 + x2 + x3 + ... + x10 + 4 + 8 + 12 + ... + 40)/10
Then we can use above equation (1) to replace x1 + x2 + x3 + ... + x10 by 200
Mean = (200 + 4 + 8 +12 + 16 + 20 + 24 + 28 + 32 + 36 + 40)/10
= 420/10
= 42
If you remember Arithmetic Progressions you can simply add together the above number set.
If you closely look above, you can find that there is an Arithmetic Progression : 4, 8, 12, ... , 40
Here we want the addition of 10 terms. So we can use,
Sn = n/2(a+l)
S10 = 10/2(4+40)
= 220
Then you can easily get the answer,
Mean = (200 + 220)/10
= 42

option D is correctThe population of a town is 157,220 and is decreasing at a rate of 0.8% each year. Predict the population in 5 years (round to the nearest whole number).
Answer:
151,031
Step-by-step explanation:
If the population of a town is decreasing at 0.8% each year, the new population of the town will be [tex]100\%-0.8\%=99.2\%[/tex] of what it was last year. To find 99.2% of something, multiply it by 0.992. Therefore, we can write the following equation:
[tex]f(x)=157,220\cdot 0.992^x[/tex], where [tex]f(x)[/tex] is the population of the town [tex]x[/tex] years after the town had a population of 157,220.
Substitute [tex]x=5[/tex] into this equation to get the projected population after 5 years:
[tex]f(5)=157,220\cdot 0.992^5, \\f(5)=151031.019048,\\f(5)\approx \boxed{151,031}[/tex]
Therefore, in 5 years, the population should be 151,031.
Review the data you collected for the angles in Question 2. Notice that ∠CFB is one of four angles formed by the two intersecting chords. What relationship do you observe that could help you determine the measure of any of the four angles created by two intersecting chords? Write the relationship as an equation.
Answer:
The measure of an angle created by two intersecting chords is half the sum of the measure of the intercepted arc and the measure of the arc vertically opposite to the angle. In this case, I can write m∠CFB = 1/2(m∠CAB + m∠EAD) because the measure of an intercepted arc is equal to the measure of its corresponding central angle.

The price of an item changed from $175 to $150. Later, the price decreased to $125. Which of the two decreases was larger in percentage and how much is it?
Answer:
The second decrease is larger at 16 1/6% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
175 to 150
Take the original price minus the new price divided by the original price
(175 -150) /175 =25/175 = 1/7 =.142857143 = 14.28 % decrease
150 to 125
Take the original price minus the new price divided by the original price
( 150-125)/150 = 25/150 = 1/6 =.16666 = 16 1/6 % decrease
The second decrease is larger at 16 1/6% decrease

Students from Mr. Caldwell's Spanish class are saving money for a summer
trip to Barcelona, Spain. Each student needs to raise $1,080 to be able to
attend the trip. This amount represents an increase of 12.5% over the cost of
the trip last year. How much did the trip to Barcelona cost last year?
O $850
$960
$1,215
$1,030
Answer:
$960
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the original amount be = x
Percentage increase is equal to = 12.5%
final amount = original amount + increase
final amount = x + 0.125x
final amount = 1.125x
final amount = 1080 = 1.125x
and then solve for x
[tex]x = \frac{1080}{1.125} \\ \\ x = 960[/tex]
so in the end x is equal to $960
Solve the equation: 1080 = 1.25x

The length of a rectangle is 3 times the width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 64 cm. Show the equation that would be used to find the dimensions of the rectangle.
Answer:
64 = 2(3x + x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of the rectangle = 64 cm
Width of the rectangle = x
Length of the rectangle = 3x
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + width)
The equation is
64 = 2(3x + x)
64 = 6x + 2x
64 = 8x
x = 64/8
x = 8 cm
Width of the rectangle = x = 8 cm
Length of the rectangle = 3x
= 3(8 cm)
= 24 cm

[tex]K' = 83^o[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]K = 83^o[/tex]
Reflection: [tex]y= 2[/tex]
Required
K'
The general rule is that, reflection does alter measurements (angles or lengths).
So, this means that K' will have the same measure as K.
i.e.
[tex]K' = K[/tex]
[tex]K' = 83^o[/tex]
What is the area of this polygon
Answer:
51
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Approach
One is given the polygon, (ABCDE); the problem asks one to find the area of this polygon. The most logical step to take is to divide this polygon into easier parts, find the area of each part, and then add up the area to find the total area of the figure.
One way to divide this figure up is to draw the line (AC). This will create the triangle (ABC) and rectangle (ACDE).
2. Find the area of (ABC)
The formula to find the area of a triangle is the following:
[tex]A=\frac{b*h}{2}[/tex]
Where (b) is the base of the triangle, and (h) is the height. The base of the triangle (ABC) is (AC), which has a measure of (6) units. The height of the triangle is the distance from the base of the triangle to the vertex opposite the base. This measurement is (3) units. Substitute these values into the formula and solve for the area:
[tex]A=\frac{b*h}{2}[/tex]
Substitute,
[tex]A=\frac{6*3}{2}\\\\A=\frac{18}{2}\\\\A=9[/tex]
3. Find the area of (ACDE)
The formula to find the area of a rectangle is as follows:
[tex]A=b*h[/tex]
The base of the rectangle is the segment (AE), with a measure of (7) units. The height of the rectangle is the segment (AC) with a measurement of (6) units. Substitute these values into the formula and solve for the area:
[tex]A=7*6\\\\A=42[/tex]
4. Find the area of the total figure
To find the area of the total figure, add up the area of the triangle, and the area of the rectangle:
[tex]9+42= 51[/tex]

Caroline earns $49000 a year, and her friend Jennifer earns $51000 a year but doesn't belong to a health fund. The tax rule this year is $40000 and above pay $5000 plus 40 cents in the dollar in tax on anything over $40000 per annum and $50000 and above pay $ 9000 plus 30 cents in the dollar in tax on anything over $ 50,000per annum, plus 2% of her income if he is not in a health fund.
Answer:
Caroline has to pay $8600 taxes
Jennifer has to pay $10320 taxes
Step-by-step explanation:
I guess the question is who has to pay how much taxes, right ?
Caroline earns $49000, and I guess, she belongs to a health fund.
she has to pay $5000 for the first $40000.
and for the remaining $9000 she has to pay $0.40 per dollar.
that means 9000×0.4 = $3600
and no penalties for no health fund.
so altogether $5000 + $3600 = $8600 taxes
Jennifer earns $51000 and did not belong to a health fund.
she has to pay $9000 for the first $50000.
and for the remaining $1000 she had to pay $0.30 part dollar.
that means 1000×0.3 = $300
and 2% of the total income because no health fund
51000×0.02 = $1020
so, altogether $9000+$300+$1020 = $10320 taxes

3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x – 20
3x + 14 = 5x – 18
14 = 2x – 18
32 = 2x
16 = x
Answer:
The answer is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)
3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20
3x + 14 = 5x - 18

Jane spent 3 hours exploring a mountain with a dirt bike. First, she rode 48 miles uphill. After she reached the peak she rode for 15 miles along the summit. While going uphill, she went 5 mph slower than when she was on the summit. What was her rate along the summit?
Answer: [tex]25\ mph[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Jane took 3 hours
First she rode 48 miles with let say with [tex]x[/tex] mph
then she rode 15 miles with speed [tex](x+5)[/tex] mph
Equate the time in each ride and equate it to total time
[tex]\Rightarrow 3=\dfrac{48}{x}+\dfrac{15}{x+5}\\\\\Rightarrow 3x(x+5)=48(x+5)+15x\\\\\Rightarrow 3x^2+15x=48x+48\times 5+15x\\\\\Rightarrow 3x^2-48x-240=0\\\\\Rightarrow (x-20)(x+4)=0\\\\\text{Neglecting the negative value as speed cannot be negative}\\\\\Rightarrow x=20\ mph[/tex]
So, her along the summit is [tex]x+5=25\ mph[/tex]

find the measure of the missing side in the right triangle
Answer:
[tex]12.2\text{ ft}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
In any right triangles, the Pythagorean Theorem states that the sum of the squares of both legs is equal to the hypotenuse squared ([tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex], where [tex]c[/tex] is the hypotenuse, or longest side).
In this case, the length we're solving for is the hypotenuse of the triangle and the two legs of the triangle are 7 and 10. Therefore, we have:
[tex]7^2+10^2=c^2,\\49+100=c^2,\\c^2=149,\\c=\sqrt{149},\\c\approx \boxed{12.2\text{ ft}}[/tex]
