Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a parallelogram has sides that are parallel to the opposite side. This means that y + 7 is going to be parallel to 20.

Two opposing sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal

You know that the length of both of the sides is equivalent because the other set of opposing lines is also parallel (you can think of it as cutting off the line segment of y+7 and 20 at the same length. )

this means that we can set up the equation to find y as:

y + 7 = 20

then, you can proceed to find y by isolating it:

y + 7 = 20 ; so therefore

y + 7 = 20

- 7 -7

y = 13

So, the value of y is 13

Choose the point-slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (6, -3) with a slope of

Firlakuza [10]

The point-slope form is
$y = mx + b$
m, the slope, is 1/2.
To find b, we plug in the point (6,-3) to the equation:
$y = \frac{1}{2} x + b \\ ( - 3) = \frac{1}{2} (6) + b \\ - 3 = 3 + b \\ - 6 = b$
First, we multiply 1/2 × 6 = 3. Then we subtract 3 from both sides. We find that b is -6.

Therefore, the point-slope equation is:
$y = \frac{1}{2} x - 6$
This is the second option.

To find the height h of a flagpole, Casey measured her own shadow and the flagpole’s shadow. Given that Casey’s height is 5 feet

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

The height of the flagpole is $25\ ft\ 4\ in$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, the the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional

Remember that

$1\ ft=12\ inches$

Convert the measures in inches

$3\ ft=3(12)=36\ in$

$5\ ft\ 4\ in=5(12)+4=64\ in$

$14\ ft\ 3\ in=14(12)+3=171\ in$

$\frac{h}{64}=\frac{171}{36}\\ \\h=171*64/36\\ \\h=304\ in$

Convert inches into (feet + inches)

$h=304\ in=304/12=25.33\ ft=25\ ft\ 4\ in$

△ABC is similar to △LMN by the AA Similarity Postulate . The measure of ∠A is 111º and m∠C=2(m∠M).

Since the Angle of A is 111 degrees.
Another angle, Angle of C is twice the angle of M.

Angle of A = Angle of C
2 (Angle of M) = Angle of C
2 (Angle of M) = 57
<span>Angle of M = 28.5 degrees</span>
