Answer:

SR and RZ

Step-by-step explanation:

A perpendicular bisector is a line segment that passes through the midpoint of a side of a triangle. In other words, If it goes through a side, it should split the segment in half perfectly. Furthermore, it must be perpendicular to the side it passes through (it should form a ninety-degree angle with the side). Given these two rules, one can say that one of the perpendicular bisectors is SR. SR forms a right angle with (and is thus perpendicular to) side AB. Furthermore, AS is congruent to (has the same length as) SB, which means SR cuts AB in half exactly. Another bisector would be RZ (for similar reasoning). Let me know if that doesn't make sense.

The answer to all of them is yes.

6) The lengths of AB and CD using the distance formula. (because congruent segments have equal length)

7) The slopes of AB and CD are equal using the slope formula. (because parallel segments have equal slopesL

8) The slopes of AB and CD are negative reciprocals using the slope formula. (because perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals)

9) The two segments that CD is split into by AB have equal length using the distance formula. (because a segment bisector splits a segment into two congruent segments, and congruent segments have equal length)

10) Angles CAB and DAB have the same measure using the angle between two lines formula. (Because an angle bisector splits an angle into two congruent angles, and congruent angles have equal measure)

11) Angles A and B have the same measure using the angle between two lines formula. (Because an angle bisector splits an angle into two congruent angles, and congruent angles have equal measure)

12) The lines that form angle A have slopes that are negative reciprocals using the slope formula. (because perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals, and perpendicular lines form right angles)

13) The lengths of AB and AC combined equal the length of AC using the distance formula.

14) Two sides of triangle ABC have equal length using the distance formula.

15) All four sides of ABCD have the same length using the distance formula.

16) Letting AB and CD meet at E, the distance formula says AE=BE and CE=DE.

A tiling company completes two jobs. The first job has $1200 in labor expenses for 40 hours worked, while the second job has $15

Lelu [443]

The slope (change in y/change in x) of the line is (1560 - 1200)/(52 - 40), which is equal to 30. We can plug this into the equation y = mx + b using either the point (40, 1200) or (52, 1560). The slope is represented by m and the y - intercept by b. Therefore, the two possible equations you could use are:

1200 = 30(40) + b

or 1560 = 30(52) + b

Using either equation, you'll get that b is equal to 0, which makes sense in the context of the problem, since it's reasonable to expect that the labor expenses would be 0 for 0 hours worked.
