ΔRSP ≅ ΔQSP by SAS. Therefore, PR ≅ PQ by CPCTC theorem.

<h3>What is the CPCTC Theorem?</h3>

If two triangles are congruent, the CPCTC theorem states that all corresponding parts of the two triangles would also be congruent to each other.

Since S is the midpoint of QR, therefore, RS ≅ QS (one pair of congruent sides)

∠RSP ≅ ∠QSP [right angles] (one pair of congruent included angles)

SP ≅ SP based on the reflexive property (one pair of congruent sides)

Therefore, ΔRSP ≅ ΔQSP by SAS.

Conclusively, PR ≅ PQ by CPCTC theorem.

All the angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

52 + 35 + x = 180

87 + x = 180

x = 93 degrees

Solve for x: 4 over x equals 5 over 10
julsineya [31]

Answer:

x = 8,

Step-by-step explanation:

\displaystyle \frac{4}{x} = \frac{5}{10}.

x \ne 0 for it is a denominator. Multiply both sides with the product of the two denominators: 10\;x:

\displaystyle \frac{4}{x}\cdot (10\; x) = \frac{5}{10}\cdot (10\;x).

40 = 5\; x.

Multiply both sides by one over the coefficient of x:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{5} \times 40 = \frac{1}{5}\times 5\; x.

x = 8.
