Min created a miniature rocket launcher, and she's testing what happens as she launches heavier rockets. The graph below shows the height of one of her heavier rockets relative to the ground over
time, where the rocket's height (y) is measured in meters and time (x) is measured in seconds. What was
the greatest height that the rocket reached?

Statement reason 1. δabc is similar to δced. given 2. 3. definition of slope 4. slope of slope of definition of slope 5. slope of × slope of multiplying the slopes 6. slope of × slope of substitution property of equality 7. slope of × slope of simplifying the right side the table contains the proof of the relationship between the slopes of two perpendicular lines. what is the reason for statement 2? a. parallel line segments that meet a common perpendicular line are proportional in length. b. the lengths of vertical and horizontal sides in congruent triangles are in a common ratio. c. trigonometric identities determine the lengths of the legs in a right triangle. d. corresponding side lengths in similar triangles are proportional in length.
