The figure below shows a quadrilateral ABCD. Sides AB and DC are congruent and parallel: A quadrilateral ABCD is shown with the

opposite sides AB and DC shown parallel and equal. A student wrote the following sentences to prove that quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram: Side AB is parallel to side DC, so the alternate interior angles, angle ABD and angle BDC, are congruent. Side AB is equal to side DC, and DB is the side common to triangles ABD and BCD. Therefore, the triangles ABD and CDB are congruent by ________. By CPCTC, angles DBC and ADB are congruent and sides AD and BC are congruent. Angle DBC and angle ADB form a pair of alternate interior angles. Therefore, AD is congruent and parallel to BC. Quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram because its opposite sides are equal and parallel. The figure below shows a quadrilateral ABCD. Sides AB and DC are congruent and parallel: A quadrilateral ABCD is shown with the opposite sides AB and DC shown parallel and equal. A student wrote the following sentences to prove that quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram: Side AB is parallel to side DC, so the alternate interior angles, angle ABD and angle BDC, are congruent. Side AB is equal to side DC, and DB is the side common to triangles ABD and BCD. Therefore, the triangles ABD and CDB are congruent by ________. By CPCTC, angles DBC and ADB are congruent and sides AD and BC are congruent. Angle DBC and angle ADB form a pair of alternate interior angles. Therefore, AD is congruent and parallel to BC. Quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram because its opposite sides are equal and parallel. Which phrase best completes the student's proof? AAS Postulate HL Postulate SAS Postulate SSS Postulate

Answer:

Therefore, the triangles ABD and CDB are congruent by SAS postulate, NOT SSS postulate, which would require 3 pairs of congruent sides.

Answer:2.Triangles ABD and CDB are congruent by the SAS postulate.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Side AB is parallel to side DC so the alternate interior angles, angle ABD and angle CDB, are congruent." is perfectly correct.

"Side AB is equal to side DC and DB is the side common to triangles ABD and BCD." this is also true

so by now we have 2 triangles, with 2 congruent sides, and the angles between these pairs of congruent sides, are also congruent

The ratio of boys to girls in the entire 6th grade is 3 to 2. Given this ratio, which two class compositions are possible?
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

<em>There's an infinite number of possible answers because there might be any multiplication of 3 for boys and any multiplication of 2 for girls. So, for example:</em>

<em>There might be 3 boys and 2 girls.</em>

<em>There might be 6 boys and 4 girls.</em>

<em>There might be 9 boys and 6 girls.</em>

<em>There might be 12 boys and 8 girls.</em>

<em>etc...</em>

<em>In each case the ratio stays the same - 3 : 2.</em>

<em>Of course there probably can't be more than a few dozens of people in one class, but theoretically we can raise the numbers up to infinite.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:<em>hope this help.</em>
