Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You cannot conclude that ΔGHI is congruent to ΔKJI, because although you can see/interpret that there all the angles are congruent with one another, like with vertical angles (∠GIH and ∠KIJ) and alternate interior angles (∠H and ∠J, ∠G and ∠K), we don't know the side lengths.

All the angles could be congruent, but the sides might be different. For example, ΔGHI might be a bigger triangle than ΔKJI, which could make them similar to one another, but not congruent.

For something to be congruent to another, everything must be exactly the same.

Answer:

90° CCW

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle from C to the origin to C' is a right angle when measured counterclockwise (in the usual direction).

ΔA'B'C' is a rotation of ΔABC 90° CCW.

This is fully equivalent to a rotation of 270° CW.

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

p=10n+25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's have p represent the number of pages you will read. If you read 10 pages per night, then you are multiplying 10 by the number of nights, which gives you 10n. Because you have already read 25 pages, you want to add to the 10n to give you the equation of p=10n+25

How do you factor the trinomial 3x^2+18x-21?

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

(3)(x+7)(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2+18x-21

Let's start by taking 3 out of the equation.

3(x^2+6x-7)

Now, when we factor, we need to find two numbers that add up to 6 and multiply to -7.

The numbers would be 7 and -1.

So the factored form of this would be:

(3)(x+7)(x-1)
