Answer:

No

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:

Triangle 1: x = 80 degrees, acute

Triangle 2: x = 10 degrees, right

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle 1:

By the Sum of Interior Angles Theorem, all the angles inside the triangle adds up to 180 degrees. So, set up this equation:

60 + 40 +x = 180

Solve for x:

100 + x = 180\\x = 80

So, x = 80 degrees

Because all the angles are less than 90 degrees, this is an acute triangle.

Triangle 2:

By the Sum of Interior Angles Theorem, all the angles inside the triangle adds up to 180 degrees. So, set up this equation (with the right angle given):

3x + 60 + 90 = 180

Solve for x:

3x + 150 = 180\\3x = 30\\x = 10

So, x = 10 degrees

Because there is an angle measuring 90 degrees, this is a right triangle.

Mr. Evens Is paid $9.20 per hour for the first 40 hours he works in a week he is paid 1.5 times that rate for each hour after th
spin [16.1K]
I don't agree with his statement. The first part says that he was paid $9.20 for the first 40 hours so we multiply them (9.20 x 40) to get 368. Then it says that he was paid 1.5 times that rate for every hour after that. The rate is "$9.20 per hour" so you find 1.5 times $9.20. You multiply $9.20 by 1.5 to get $13.80 per hour. Now you have to find how much money he got after the initial 40 hours. It says he worked 42.25 hours, and we already figured out how much money he got the first 40 hours ($368). So for the remaining 2.25 hours, Mr.Evens is paid $13.80 an hour. So we multiply 2.25 by $13.80 to get $31.05. To find out the total amount of money accumulated, we add. $368 + $31.05 is $399.05 which means that Mr.Evens is not correct. Hope this helped :]
