Which of the following best completes the proof showing that ΔWXZ ~ ΔXYZ? triangles WXZ and XYZ that share side XZ with right angle XZW, WZ equals 16, XZ equals 12, and YZ equals 9 Since segment XZ is perpendicular to segment WY, angles WZX and XZY are both right angles and congruent. The proportion _ shows the corresponding sides are proportional, so the triangles are similar by the SAS Similarity Postulate. 16 over 12 equals 9 over 12 16 over 12 equals 12 over 9 12 over 12 equals 16 over 9 12 over 16 equals 16 over 9

2.5 milligrams is equivalent to how many grams

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line and that passes through the given point. –3x – 6y = 17; (6, 3) y = x – 9 y = 2x – 9 y = –2x – 9 y = x + 0 3. is the relationship shown by the data linear? if so, model the data with an equation. x y 1 5 5 10 9 15 13 20 the relationship is linear; y – 5 = (x – 1). the relationship is not linear. the relationship is linear; y – 5 = (x – 1). the relationship is linear; y – 1 = (x – 5). write an equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope. (–10, –1); m = y + 10 = (x + 1) y – 1 = (x – 10) y – 1 = (x + 10) y + 1 = (x + 10) 5. write an equation for each translation of . 6.5 units up y + 6.5 = | x | y = | 6.5 x | y = | x | + 6.5 y = | x | – 6.5 6. write an equation for each translation of . 5.5 units right y = | x | + 5.5 y = | x – 5.5 | y = | x | – 5.5 y = | x + 5.5 | 7. which equation translates y = | x | by 8 units to the left? y = | x | – 8 y = | x | + 8 y = | x – 8| y = | x + 8|
