Trigonometry help please? I need the three answers

Both triangles are triangle rectangles, but the triangles are not similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the Pythagorean's theorem, we know that for a triangle rectangle the sum of the squares of the cathetus is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

Where the cathetus are always the two sides of smaller length.

We also know that two figures are similar if all the correspondent sides are proportional to each other, this means that the figures have the same shape but different size.

First, for triangle A the measures of the sides are:

48, 55, 73

Here the two catheti are 48 and 55, and the hypotenuse is 73.

Then to answer the first question we need to try to apply the Pythagorean's theorem, we should have:

48^2 + 55^2 = 73^2

solving that we get:

5,329 = 5,329

This is true, thus triangle A is a triangle rectangle.

Now for triangle B the measures are: 36, 77 and 85.

So the catheti are 36 and 77, and the hypotenuse is 85

So to check if triangle B is a triangle rectangle the equation:

36^2 + 77^2 = 85^2

must be true, solving both sides we get:

7,225 = 7,225

This is true, so triangle B is a triangle rectangle.

Finally, to check if the figures are similar we need to compare the correspondent sides of both triangles, such that the quotient of correspondent sides must be always the same.

For the hypotenuses, if we compute:

(hypotenuse B)/(Hypotenuse A) we get:

85/73 = 1.16

Now if we do the same for the two smaller catheti we get:

36/48 = 0.75

The quotients are different, thus the triangles are not similar.

a. the are of the rectangle is 18.25

b. 18.25 times two is 36.50

rae me : d

i believe that the answer is

b. y-1=-2(x-4)

hope this !
