<span>Solve this equation by completing the square. 3x^2 - 4x = -2
</span>Step 1:
Divide by the leading coefficient (coef. of x^2), and transpose.
(3x^2 - 4x)/3 = -2/3
x^2-2(2/3)x = -2/3
Complete the square, 
(x-2/3)^2 - 4/9 = -2/3
Solve for (x-2/3)
(x-2/3)^2= -2/3 + 4/9 = -2/9
x-2/3 = ± (√2)i/3
Solve for x
x=2/3± (√2)i/3
or
x=(2±(√2)i)/3

10th grade geometry <br> Select statements that are true about angles on diagram
Goshia [24]

Answer:

  B, C

Step-by-step explanation:

The only statements that must be true are ones that describe the markings on the diagram:

 NO as an angle bisector

  N is the vertex of a pair of congruent angles

_____

The only other fact that must be true is that segments on the left side of the diagram are proportional to those (corresponding) on the right. (This is a property of the angle bisector.) There is nothing that says the sides must be equal, or that the triangle is isosceles.
