Two angles form a linear pair. The measure of one angle is 1/3 of the other angle. Find the measure if each angle

Answer:

<em>The measure of the angles is 45° and 135°</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

When two lines intersect, a linear pair of angles is formed. Two angles are said to be linear if they are adjacent, so a linear pair of angles must add up to 180 degrees.

Let's call x and y the two required angles. Knowing they form a linear pair:

x+y=180

We also know one angle is 1/3 of the other angle, thus:

x=y/3

Or, equivalently:

3x=y

Substituting y into the first equation:

x+3x=180

Simplifying:

4x=180

Solving:

x=180/4=45

The other angle is:

y=3x=3\cdot 45=135

Thus the measure of the angles is 45° and 135°

How do you prove this?
frozen [14]

Answer:

Show ΔBCD ≅ ΔGFE, so ∠C ≅ ∠F. Base angle of an isosceles triangle are congruent, so ΔACF is isosceles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Informally, subtract DE from CE and DF. This will show CD ≅ EF.

Then ΔBCD ≅ ΔGFE by the HL theorem for right triangles.

Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent, namely the angles C and F.

Since base angles of ΔACF are congruent, it is isosceles.

Need help with this slide about proofs explanation would be nice aswell.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

1. AB ~= DF

2. Definition of Congruent

3. Reflexive Property of Congruency

4 BD=BD

6. AB+BD=AD; DF+BD=BF

7. Substitution Property of Equality

8. Definition of Congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The given always goes first, and that's the first reason, so AB ~= DF must be the first statement (that should be the congruency symbol).

2. The definition of congruent is that if they are congruent then they are equal. Since that statement made two congruent lines equal, it must be the definition.

3. The reflexive property means something is congruent to itself, and BDis BD, therefore it is the reflexive property.

4. Remember if something is congruent then it is equal.

6. The segment addition postulate states that if we are given two points on a line segment, then AB+AC=AC.

7. In this statement AD was substituted for DF+BD. This can be done because of AB=DF and BD=BD as aforementioned.

8. If two things are congruent then they are equal by definition of congruency.

Pachacha [2.7K]
The answer is:  [C]:  "Astrologers do not use the scientific method." 
_____________________________________________________
Note:  Choice [A] is incorrect.  Astrologers do use tools.
_____________________________________________________
Choice [B] is incorrect.  Some astrologers do observe the universe.
_____________________________________________________
Choice [D] is incorrect.  Astrologers may or may not go to college; and whether or not they do or do not is irrelevant as regard to whether to they are considered "scientists".
