The area in the circles to the left of the line is equal to the area in the circles to the right of the line. Note that in the circle at the left in the top row, the line goes through the center of the circle; thus it is a diameter of the circle, and half the area lies on one side of the line and half lies on the other side of the line. A complete circle lies on each side of the line; the circle at the right in the top row is on one side, and the circle at the left in the bottom row lies on the other side.

Answers to Writing Exercises 42. To determine if a 25-foot ladder is long enough to reach 24 ft up the side of the home when the bottom of the ladder is 6 ft from the base of the side of the house, use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs that measure 24 ft and 6 ft. c 2 = a2 + b2 c2 = 242 + 62 c2 = 576 + 36 c2 = 612 c ≈ 24.74 Compare the leg of the hypotenuse with 25. If the hypotenuse is shorter than 25 ft, the ladder will reach the gutter. If the hypotenuse is longer than 25 feet, the ladder will not reach the gutter. 24.74 < 25 The hypotenuse is shorter than 25 ft. The ladder will reach the gutters. 43.

The lengths of the three sides of a triangle are 3 m, 4 m, and 6 m. Find the least possible perimeter of a similar triangle, one of whose sides measures 12 m. 26 m Answers to Writing Exercises 20. Yes. Given two squares, the ratios of corresponding sides are equal because the same number will be in the numerators (the length of a side of one square) and the same number will be in the denominators (the length of a side of the second square.) No. The lengths of the sides of a rectangle vary. Therefore, given two rectangles, the ratios of corresponding sides may vary. 22. To find the height of the tree, you could use similar triangles and a proportion. This method assumes that the sun is shining and is not directly overhead. Use the yardstick to measure the shadow of the tree. Then use the yardstick to measure the length of your own shadow. Write and solve a proportion. One possible proportion is as follows: “Your height” over “the length of your shadow” is equal to “the height of the tree” over “the length of the shadow cast by the tree.” Answers to Focus on Problem Solving—Trial and Error No, it is not possible for two different pairs of factors of a number to have the same sum.

A parallelogram, a rectangle, a square, and a circle have point symmetry. If a figure is unchanged after being rotated more than 0° and less than 360°, then the figure has rotational symmetry. An equilateral triangle, a rectangle, a square, a circle, and a parallelogram have rotational symmetry. It may be helpful to note that a regular pentagon has rotational symmetry but not point symmetry. 7. Examples of symmetry in nature include people and animals, snowflakes, starfish, and many types of flowers. Examples of symmetry in art and architecture can be found in history texts and in art and architectural magazines.
