Identify two similar triangles in the figure, and explain why they are similar. then find ab.

Therefore,

ΔABD ~ ΔACB by Angle-Angle Similarity Postulate

AB is 8 unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

∠ABD ≅ ∠BCD

AD = 4

DC = 12   Therefore AC =AD + DC = 4 +12 =16

AC =16

To Find:

Similar Triangles

AB =?

Solution:

In  ΔABD  and ΔACB  

∠ABD ≅ ∠ACB      ……….{Given}

∠ A  ≅ ∠ A               .……..{Reflexive Property}

ΔABD ~  ΔACB  ….{By Angle-Angle Similarity Postulate}

If two triangles are similar then their sides are in proportion.  

Substituting the values we get

Therefore,

ΔABD ~ ΔACB by Angle-Angle Similarity Postulate

AB is 8 unit.

step-by-step explanation:

if you want to solve percent error follow these steps.

1. subtract the accepted value from the experimental value.

2. take the absolute value of step 1.

3. divide that answer by the accepted value.

4. multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

if you want to solve percent of change just do this.

1. work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

2. divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. if your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage decrease.

hope this : )

step-by-step explanation:

1,500 is 15 times larger than 100

lets make 250 15 times larger.
