Max and brenda went shopping for a table. they found one that they like. the cost is $150.00 but there is a 25% off sale and they need to add 8% to the local sales tax. max multiplied 150 x 0.75 to get the cost. he then multiplied the discounted amount by 1.08 to find the total cost. what was max’s total cost? brenda multiplied 150 x 25% and subtracted that amount from 150. she then multiplied the discounted price by 8%. she added the discounted price and the tax amount together to get the total cost. what was brenda’s total cost? how come the answers are the same?

square root

step-by-step explanation:

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
