In order to prove that two triangles are congruent using the ASA theorem, it is necessary to show two pairs of congruent angles and one pair of congruent sides of the triangles.

In the given diagram, there is already a pair of congruent triangles and a pair of congruent sides shown.

Then, in order to use the ASA theorem, we need to prove that there is another pair of congruent angles, one from each triangle.

Since the side VX must be adjacent to both angles involved in the procedure, then we need to show that the angle VXW is congruent to the angle YXZ, which is adjacent to the side YX.

This can be proven using the fact that VXW and YXZ are vertical angles.

Therefore, the necessary step in Johnny's proof is shown in option D)

\text{Prove that }\angle VXW\cong\angle YXZ\text{ by vertical angles}

PLEASE ANSWER, WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!

<h3>Answer:  b = 17</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

The line must go through the point (5,2) which means x = 5 and y = 2 pair up together.

We'll plug these x and y values into the equation and solve for b.

y = -3x+b

2 = -3(5)+b

2 = -15+b

2+15 = b

17 = b

b = 17

The equation y = -3x+b turns into y = -3x+17

A figure is composed of a semicircle and a right triangle. Determine the area of the shaded region. Use 3.14 for π and round to
Aliun [14]

Answer:

A=9.5\ ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the shaded region is equal to the area of triangle plus the area of semicircle

so

A=\frac{1}{2}bh+\frac{1}{2}\pi r^{2}

we have

b=4\ ft

Find the height of the right triangle applying the Pythagorean Theorem

5^2=h^2+4^2

h^2=9\\h=3\ ft

The radius of the semicircle is half the height of triangle

r=3/2=1.5\ ft

substitute in the formula

A=\frac{1}{2}(4)(3)+\frac{1}{2}(3.14)(1.5)^{2}

A=6+3.5=9.5\ ft^2

Help? I'd Appreciate it!

<u>Answer</u>

y = (1/2)x - 1


<u>Explanation</u>

The first step is to get the gradient of the line.

The two points in the line are; (2,0) and (-2, -2).

Gradient = (-2 - 0)/(-2, - 2)

                = -2/-4

                 = 1/2

To get the function we use one of the point (2,0) and a general point (x,y).

1/2 = (y - 0)/(x - 2)

1/2 = y/(x - 2)

(x - 2) = 2y

2y = x - 2

y = (1/2)x - 1
