Answer:

HL

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

\angle A=\angle B=90^{\circ}

AC=BD

We have to find the postulate that is not used in line 3 reason in given proof.

In triangle MAC and BMD

Statement:\angle A=\angle B=90^{\circ}

AC=BD

Reason: Given

Statement:\angle AMC=\angle BMD

Reason: Vertical opposite angle theorem

Statement:\triangle AMC\cong \triangle BMD

Reason: AAS Postulate or LA postulate

AAS postulate: When two angles and one side of one triangle is equal to two corresponding angles and corresponding side of other triangle .Then , two triangles are congruent by AAS postulate.

LA postulate: When one acute angle and  one leg of one triangle is equal to its corresponding angle and corresponding leg of other triangle .Then, two triangles are congruent by LA postulate.

HL Postulate: When hypotenuse and one leg of one triangle is equal to its corresponding hypotenuse and corresponding leg of other triangle .Then, two triangles are congruent by HL postulate.

But we are not given MC=BM

Therefore, we cannot use HL postulate.

Statement:MC=BM

Reason:CPCT

Answer:

HL

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypotenuse and leg of a right triangle (HL) :Two right triangles are called congruent if the hypotenuses and one corresponding leg are equal in both triangles.

Leg and angle of a right triangle ( LA ) : Two right triangles are called congruent if the corresponding angles and one corresponding leg are equal in both triangles,

AAS ( angle-angle-side) postulate of congruence : Two triangles are called congruent if two pairs of corresponding angles and a pair of opposite sides are equal in both triangles.

Here,

In triangles AMC and BMD,

∠A ≅ ∠B

∠AMC ≅ BMD

AC = BD

Thus, by the above definitions,

We can prove triangles AMC and BMD with help of both AAS and HL postulate,

But, we could not use HL postulate because MC = MD ( where MC and MD are the hypotenuse of triangles AMC and BMD respectively ) is not given.

2. Miss. Mead pays Miss. Brown $125.00 per week. How much money must Miss. Brown take in for
nadezda [96]

The question is incomplete:

1. A cosmetologist must double his/her salary before the employer con realize any profit from  his/her work,  Miss, Mead paid Miss, Adams $125,00 per week to start.

2. Miss. Mead pays Miss. Brown $125.00 per week. How much money must Miss. Brown take in for  services if Miss. Mead is to realize $50.00 profit on her work? (Conditions on salary are the same  as in problem 1)  

ODS

a. $275.00 b. $325.00 c. $250.00 d. $300.00

Answer:

d. $300.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a cosmetologist must double her salary before the employer can realize any profit from  his/her work, for Miss. Mead to realize $50.00 profit on her work, you would have to determine the amount that doubles the salary of the cosmetologist and add the $50 needed as profit:

Salary= $125*2=$250

$250+$50= $300

According to this, the answer is that for Mead to realize $50.00 profit on her work, Miss. Brown must take $300.
