<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

The inequality is: 5<c<19

Length of third side "c" can have values greater than 5 but less than 19

<u><em>Solution:</em></u>

Given that,

Length of two sides of triangle are 7 inches and 12 inches respectively

Let the length of third side be "c"

The Triangle Inequality Theorem, states that, the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side

So we get a inequality as:

Case 1:

Sum of length of two sides of triangle > length of third side

Rewrite,

Case 2:

Let 12 inches be the length of third side

Sum of sides of length 7 and c > 12

Therefore from case 1 and case 2,

Which can be combined,

<u><em>Therefore the possible values of "c" are:</em></u>

<u><em>"c" can have values greater than 5 but less than 19</em></u>

I need help on 25,27, 28,29,31 100 points for who answers it right

Answer:

25. D          27. D       28. A       29. D. x = 7, y = 26       31.  D. 120 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

25. Since the two parallelograms are congruent, you know what ∠B and ∠Y are supplementary.

This means that 3m + 70 + 80 = 180

3m + 150 = 180

3m = 30

D. m = 10

27. Since a vertex is (2,0), you know that two other vertexes are five units away in one direct and the other vertex will be five up or down and five over.

A is 5 units over, and that's a possible other coordinate, so it can't be A.

B is 5 over, so it's a possibility and it can't be B.

C is down 5 and 5 over, so it can be the coordinate across from (2,0), so it can't be C.

D is 7 up and 2 over, which isn't within our 5 unit frame! So it must be D!

E is 5 up and 5 over, so it can still count as a possibility.

28. When you observe the coordinates, you'll notice that FG ║ HI, and FH ║ GI. This eliminates the possibility of it being a kite and ensures that it will at least be a parallelogram!

From here, you can also observe that FG ≅ HI, and FH ≅ GI. This shows you that it's not a square despite that it has right angles.

The presence of right angles shows that it's not a rhombus and instead must be a rectangle.

29. Even though the problem only identifies it as a quadrilateral, it must be a parallelogram because of the parallel sides. Opposite angles on parallelograms are congruent, so we can begin with:

6x - 8 = 4x + 6

2x = 14

x = 7

From here, you can plug "x" back into the equation to find the value of those two angles.

6(7) - 8

42 - 8

34

Now that we know that those two angles are 34 degrees, we know that they total to 68 degrees.

Since the sum of internal angles on a quadrilateral is 360 degrees, the other two anglers must be 360 - 68.

That means the total of those two angles is 292 degrees.

Since we know the angles are equal (def. of parallelogram), we know that:

146 = 5y + 16

140 = 5y

y = 26

D. x = 7, y = 26

31. The arc is 120 degrees because the angle because at the other side instead of at the center of the circle, so you double the angle.

The quotient of two numbers is negative. It must be true that? A. Neither number is negative. B. One of the numbers is negative
denpristay [2]

n mathematics, a negative number is a real number that is less than zero. Negative numbers represent opposites. If positive represents movement to the right, negative represents movement to the left. If positive represents above sea level, then negative represents below level. If positive represents a deposit, negative represents a withdrawal. They are often used to represent the magnitude of a loss or deficiency. A debt that is owed may be thought of as a negative asset, a decrease in some quantity may be thought of as a negative increase. If a quantity may have either of two opposite senses, then one may choose to distinguish between those senses—perhaps arbitrarily—as positive and negative. In the medical context of fighting a tumor, an expansion could be thought of as a negative shrinkage. Negative numbers are used to describe values on a scale that goes below zero, such as the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales for temperature. The laws of arithmetic for negative numbers ensure that the common sense idea of an opposite is reflected in arithmetic. For example, − − 3 = 3 because the opposite of an opposite is the original thing.
