In 1603, German astronomer Christoph Scheiner began to copy and scale diagrams using an instrument that came to be known as the pantograph. By moving a pencil attached to a linkage, Scheiner was able to produce a second image that was enlarged. Do some brief research on Scheiner’s invention. Describe how the pantograph works and how it is able to produce an enlarged image. How does the operation of the pantograph relate to dilations and similarity? How can you use similar triangles to describe why the pantograph works as it does? Write an abbreviated paragraph proof using similar triangles to explain the design. In many instances, the pantograph has been replaced by other means for enlarging images. What has the pantograph been replaced by? Explain.

step-by-step explanation:

fahrenheit

step-by-step explanation:

fahrenheit is more precise than celsius. the ambient temperature on most of the inhabited world ranges from -20 degrees fahrenheit to 110 degrees fahrenheit—a 130-degree range. on the celsius scale, that range is from -28.8 degrees to 43.3 degrees—a 72.1-degree range. this means that you can get a more exact measurement of the air temperature using fahrenheit because it uses almost twice the scale.

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

y -5 = (-1/4)(x + 8)
