Answer:

When a shape is transformed by rigid transformation, the sides lengths and angles remain unchanged.

Rigid transformation justifies the SAS congruence theorem by keeping the side lengths and angle, after transformation.

Assume two sides of a triangle are:

And the angle between the two sides is:

When the triangle is transformed by a rigid transformation (such as translation, rotation or reflection), the corresponding side lengths and angle would be:

Notice that the sides and angles do not change.

Hence, rigid transformation justifies the SAS congruence theorem by keeping the side lengths and angle, after transformation.

The LCM of two numbers is 36 their GCD is 3 one of the number is 9 find the other number

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The LCM of 9 and x = 36

The GCD is 3, that means the number has to be divisible by 3 as well.

We can look at all the factors of 36, and see which numbers fit the description

36 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36

1: Does not have a GCD of 3

2: Does not have a GCD of 3

3: Has a GCD of 9, but LCM is 3, not 36

4: Does not have a GCD of 3

6: Has a GCD of 3, but LCM is 18, not 36

9: Number is given

12: Has GCD of 3, and LCM is 36

18: Has GCD of 9

36: Has GCD of 9

The only number that works is 12, with a GCD of 3, and an LCM of 36
