Answers:</h3>
- ST = 23
- RU = 8
- SV = 5
- SU = 10
====================================================
Explanation:
Focus on triangles SVT and UVT.
They are congruent triangles due to the fact that SV = VU and VT = VT. From there we can use the LL (leg leg) theorem for right triangles to prove them congruent.
Since the triangles are the same, just mirrored, this means ST = UT = 23.
-----------------------
Following similar reasoning as the previous section, we can prove triangle RVU = triangle RVS.
Therefore, RS = RU = 8
-----------------------
SV = VU = 5 because RT bisects SU.
Bisect means to cut in half. The two smaller pieces are equal.
-----------------------
SU = SV + VU = 5+5 = 10
Refer to the segment addition postulate.
We will have to use proportions:
Cross multiplying we get
Now divide:
Solve to tenths place we get

Answer:
a. 84 < n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) < 96
b. 26 < n < 30
step-by-step explanation:
using 'n' to represent the smallest even number, the next even number would be 'n + 2' and the next even number would be 'n + 4'. so, the expression to represent three consecutive even numbers is: n + (n + 2) + (n + 4).
since the sum of the these numbers needs to be between 84 and 96, we can set up the following inequality:
84 < n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) < 96
in order to solve for 'n', we must first combine like terms:
84 < 3n + 6 < 96
subtract 6 from all sides: 84 - 6 < 3n + 6 - 6 < 96 - 6 or 78 < 3n < 90
divide 3 by all sides: 78/3 < 3n/3 < 90/3 or 26 < n < 30.
