How do I construct bisectors, angles, & segments?

Doss [256]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

These come directly from my textbook, so I'm not sure if your teacher will accept this kind of work.

1. Angle construction:

Given an angle. construct an angle congruent to the given angle.

Given: Angle ABC

Construct: An angle congruent to angle ABC

Procedure:

1. Draw a ray. Label it ray RY.

2. Using B as center and any radius, draw an arc that intersects ray BA and ray BC. Label the points of intersection D and E, respectively.

3. Using R as center and the same radius as in Step 2, draw an arc intersecting ray RY. Label the arc XS, with S being the point where the arc intersects ray RY.

4. Using S as center and a radius equal to DE, draw an arc that intersects arc XS at a point Q.

5. Draw ray RQ.

Justification (for congruence): If you draw line segment DE and line segment QS, triangle DBE is congruent to triangle QRS (SSS postulate) Then angle QRS is congruent to angle ABC.

You can probably also Google videos if it's hard to imagine this. Sorry, construction is super hard to describe.

Need help quick simplify the expression (-4) power of 3

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

-64

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking to solve $(-4)^3$

Notice how the -4 is in parenthesis. This means that along with the 4 being multiplied, the negative is too.

$(-4)^3$ is the same as -4 · -4 · -4

First let's figure out if this will be negative or positive

Whenever the exponent is odd and there is a negative in the parenthesis the answer will be negative and if its even it will be positive

Now find out what 4 x 4 x 4 equals (64)

In conclusion the answer is -64

What value of x will make ONM similar SRQ by the SAS similarity theorem?

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is 25

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached figure.

SAS similarity theorem mean that when two triangles have corresponding angles are congruent and corresponding sides with identical ratios the triangles are similar.

So, if ΔONM similar ΔSRQ by the SAS similarity theorem

∴∠N = ∠R

And

$\frac{NM}{RQ} =\frac{NO}{RS}$

given that NM = 10 , NO = 8 , QR = x , RS = 20

∴ $\frac{10}{x} =\frac{8}{20}$

∴ $x=\frac{10*20}{8} =25$

So, the value of x will make ONM similar SRQ by the SAS similarity theorem = 25
