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.

Answer:

R=\$145.12

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Compound Interest</u>

This is a well-know problem were we want to calculate the regular payment R needed to pay a principal P in n periods with a known rate of interest i.

The present value PV or the principal can be calculated with

P=F_a\cdot R

Solving for R

\displaystyle R=\frac{P}{F_a}

Where Fa is computed by

\displaystyle F_a=\frac{1-(1+i)^{-n}}{i}

We'll use the provided values but we need to convert them first to monthly payments

i=7\%=7/(12\cdot 100)=0.00583

n=3*12=36

\displaystyle F_a=\frac{1-(1+0.00583)^{-36}}{0.00583}

F_a=32.386

Thus, each payment is

\displaystyle R=\frac{4,700}{32.386}=145.12

\boxed{R=\$145.12}

Estimate the quotient for 49 / 311
Makovka662 [10]
To get a close estimate, we can round 49 up to 50 and 311 down to 300, obtaining an estimate of 50/300 = 1/6, or 0.1666... as a repeating decimal. That decimal approximation is a little less than one hundredth away from the actual decimal approximation of ≈ 0.1576

If marie wants to decorate a gift box with ribbon. She measures three pieces that she has with a ruler.They are 32. Centimeters,
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer: No, she does not have enough.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You have the following information given in the problem above:

- The measures of the three pieces are: 32 centimeters, 41.19 centimeters and 57.8 centimeters long.

- She need 200 centimeters of ribbon for the box.

2. Therefore, you must add the measures given in the problem to know if Marie has enough ribbon to decorate the gift box. Then:

32cm+41.19cm+57.8cm=130.99cm

3. As you can see:

 130.99 cm<200 cm

Therefore, she does not have enough ribbon.
