This is known as Einstein's proof, not because he was the first to come up with it, but because he came up with it as a 15 year old boy.
Here the problem is justification step 2. The written equation
BC ÷ DC = BC ÷ AC
is incorrect, and wouldn't get us our statement 2, which is correct.
For similar triangles we have to carefully pair the corresponding parts to get our ratios right:
ABC ~ BDC means AB:BD = BC:DC = AC:BC so BC/DC=AC/BC.
Justification 2 has the final division upside down.
Answer: Associative property
Step-by-step explanation: it is the same equation but they switched the numbers around on the other side of the equal sign so therefore its associative property
Answer:
so easy and obvious dude
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(x - 10)(x + 10)
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 100 ← is a difference of squares and factors in general as
a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b)
Hence
x² - 100
= x² - 10² = (x - 10)(x + 10)
You can wrap it around 37 times and you will have 4 inches leftover.
