Answer:

A. (a, 0)

D. (a/2,b/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

(a, 0) lies on one side of the triangle, because it is between (0,0) and (2a,0)

(0, b) doesn't lie on one side of the triangle, because only the only point with x-coordinate = 0 is (0,0)

(–a, b) doesn't lie on one side of the triangle, because only positive values are valid

Imagine the triangle with vertices (0,0), (a, 0) and (a,b). Let's call β the angle at vertex (0,0)

tan(β) = b/a

For triangle with vertices (0,0), (a/2, 0) and (a/2,b/2)

tan(β) = (b/2)/(a/2) = b/a

then, (a/2,b/2) lies on one side of the triangle

For triangle with vertices (0,0), (a/3, 0) and (a/3,b/4)

tan(β) = (b/4)/(a/3) = (3/4)*(b/a) ≠ b/a

then, (a/3,b/4) doesn't lie on one side of the triangle

Answer:

Alternate-exterior angles theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and if there are a pair of congruent angles that are outside of the parallel lines, and on opposite sides of the transversal, you will have the alternate-exterior angles theorem.

Which of these expressions is equivalent to 3x(x-1)-5(x-1)? Select all that apply.
Maru [420]

Answer:

3x(x-1)-5(x-1)

=3x²-3x-5x+5 (we can count it one by one)

=3x²-8x+5 (we can calculate the same variable)
