Answer:

secM = \frac{17}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

secM = \frac{1}{cosM}

cosM = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{MN}{LM} = \frac{15}{17} , then

secM = \frac{1}{\frac{15}{17} } = \frac{17}{15}

matrenka [14]
We know the total distance and individual times, so we can sum and equate total distance.

Let
E=speed heading east
E+45=speed heading south
then
4(E+45)+6E=3370 miles
Solve for E:
4E+180+6E=3370
10E=3370-180=3190 mph
E=319 mph.

Show that the two triangles ABC and DEF are congruent by the<br> HL theorem.
inna [77]

Since hypotenuses and legs have the same length, then both are congruent and thus, triangles ABC and DEF are congruent.

The Hypotenuse-Leg theorem states that two <em>right</em> triangles are <em>congruent</em> if and only if their hypotenuses and any of their <em>corresponding</em> legs are <em>congruent</em>. That is to say:

\overline {AC} \cong \overline {DF}, \overline{BC} \cong \overline {EF}

AC = DF, BC = EF

\sqrt{AB^{2}+BC^{2}} = \sqrt{DE^{2}+EF^{2}}, BC = EF

If we know that AB = 10, BC = 4, DE = 10 and EF = 4, then we have the following outcomes:

\sqrt{10^{2}+4^{2}} = \sqrt{10^{2}+4^{2}}

4 = 4

Since hypotenuses and legs have the same length, then both are congruent and thus, triangles ABC and DEF are congruent.
