Answer:

w = 70° . . . . alternate interior angles
x = 70° . . . . alternate interior angles
y = 40° . . . . angle sum in a triangle
z = ?? . . . . not enough information

Step-by-step explanation:

The alternate interior angles theorem, and the angle sum theorem can be used here.

<h3>Alternate interior angles</h3>

Alternate interior angles are found on either side of a transversal where it crosses a pair of parallel lines. They are between the parallel lines. Their vertices are at the junction of the transversal and the parallel lines. Alternate interior angles are congruent.

In this diagram, there are two pairs of alternate interior angles where the two transversals AD and BD cross parallel lines AB and CD.

At points A and D, the alternate interior angles are 70° and x, respectively. This tells you ...

x = 70° . . . . alternate interior angles theorem

At points B and D, the alternate interior angles are w and 70°, respectively. This tells you ...

w = 70° . . . . alternate interior angles theorem

<h3>Angle sum</h3>

The angle sum theorem tells you the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°. This fact can be used to find the measure of angle y.

70° +w +y = 180°

y = 180° -70° -w = 110° -70°

y = 40° . . . . angle sum theorem

There is not enough information to determine the measure of angle z.

z = indeterminate

Find the slope(6,8) and (9,10)

USPshnik [31]

name the points

a=(x1,y1) b=(x2,y2)

a=(6,8) b=(9,10)

use the slope formula

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

replace

$\begin{gathered} m=\frac{10-8}{9-6} \\ m=\frac{2}{3} \end{gathered}$

answer= The slope is equal to 2/3

a=(9,10) b=(6,8)

using the formula

$\begin{gathered} m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} \\ m=\frac{8-10}{6-9} \\ m=\frac{-2}{-3}=\frac{2}{3} \end{gathered}$

slope will also be 2/3

Find all solutions to the equation. <br> cos^2 x +2cosx+1=0

Schach [20]

$x= \pi$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\cos^2x+\cos x+1=0$

Let $u= \cos x$

Then $u^2+2u+1=(u+1)^2=0$

$\cos x = -1$

This gives us $x= \pi$ or all integer multiples of $\pi (n \pi)$

Two cyclists start at the same point and travel in opposite directions. One cyclist travels 4 km per hour faster than the other.

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

the rate of the first cyclist: 28km/h

the rate of the 2nd cyclist 28+4= 32km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

x= the rate of the first cyclist

x+4= the rate of the 2nd cyclist

after 4 hours: + the first cyclist travels 4x (km)

+ the 2nd cyclist travels 4(x+4) (km)

because the two cyclists are 240 km apart after 4 hours

=> 4x + 4(x+4) = 240 => x= 28

i hope it's useful forr u =)))

Describe the end behavior of the function:<br> f(x) = 1/2*2^x +3

suter [353]

Although there is (1/2) in the front of the expression, the base is 2, not (1/2). (1/2) is a positive number, and 2 is a positive number larger than 1, so as x approaches infinity, f(x) approaches infinity as well. as x approaches negative infinity, f(x) approaches 3.
