Why is it that the orthocenter of an obtuse triangle must lie on the outside of the triangle?

It is important to understand the meaning of orthocenter in respect to a triangle first. Ii is actually the intersection of all the altitudes within a triangle. The altitudes can be drawn from an angle to the opposite side but the line should create a right angle with the side of the triangle. In case of obtuse triangle, the three lines would meet outside the triangle. I hope the answer helps.

A ride on the roller coaster costs 4 tickets while the boat ride only costs 3 tickets. Michael went on the two rides a total of

True [87]

Let x = roller coaster ticket
let y = boat ride ticket

x + y = 10
4x + 3y = 37

x = 10 - y
4x + 3y = 37
4(10-y) + 3y = 37
40 - 4y + 3y = 37
-y = 37 - 40
-y = -3
y = -3/-1
y = 3

x = 10 - y
x = 10 - 3
x = 7

x = 7 ; y = 3

4x + 3y = 37
4(7) + 3(3) = 37
28 + 9 = 37
37 = 37

Jill And Jamahl are comparing their favorite number.Jill number has a prime factorization of 6 number. Jamahl has a prime factor

tatiyna

To prove that jill is wrong we just need an example of this;

2*3*5*7*11*13 = 30030 (this is the smallest number with 6 different prime numbers)

5953*5981*5987 = 2.13x10^11 (which is obviously a much bigger number)

this is enough to prove that jill is wrong

<em>Answer:</em> ΔTAU ≈ ΔUAV ≈ ΔTUV

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

I'm not really sure what "work" you really need; this is a problem that can be solved easily by simply looking at the triangles and seeing which sides have the same ratio of distances for each side.

Best of luck with your assignment. :) Feel free to give me Brainliest if you feel this helped. Have a good day.
