1. create two similar, but not equal, right triangles using segments of line ab as the hypotenuse of each triangle. you
may choose the given points, a(-5, -1) and b(4,3.5), as two of the points used to create the triangles. for each point
used to create the triangles, name the point with a capital letter and coordinates.

2. for the pair of similar triangles created in part 1, list three pair of corresponding angles that are equal and three sets
of proportionate sides.

3. use the pair of similar triangles created in part 1 to demonstrate that the slope of line is the same between any two
points on the line.

in your final answer, include a copy of your graph labeling original line ab, and all of parts 1-3. be sure to show the
vertical and horizontal lengths used for the rise and run of the slope. to submit your answers, use a word processing
program or handwritten solutions.

(c) compare the results of parts (a) and (b). in general, how do you think the mode, median, and mean are affected when each data value in a set is multiplied by the same constant? multiplying each data value by the same constant c results in the mode, median, and mean increasing by a factor of c. multiplying each data value by the same constant c results in the mode, median, and mean remaining the same. multiplying each data value by the same constant c results in the mode, median, and mean decreasing by a factor of c. there is no distinct pattern when each data value is multiplied by the same constant. (d) suppose you have information about average heights of a random sample of airline passengers. the mode is 65 inches, the median is 72 inches, and the mean is 65 inches. to convert the data into centimeters, multiply each data value by 2.54. what are the values of the mode, median, and mean in centimeters? (enter your answers to two decimal places.) mode cm median cm mean cm in this problem, we explore the effect on the mean, median, and mode of multiplying each data value by the same number. consider the following data set 7, 7, 8, 11, 15. (a) compute the mode, median, and mean. (enter your answers to one (1) decimal places.) mean value = median = mode = (b) multiply 3 to each of the data values. compute the mode, median, and mean. (enter your answers to one (1) decimal places.) mean value = median = mode = --
