Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
According to HL theorem if one leg and hypotenuse of one right triangle are equal to one leg and hypotenuse of other right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
By using this theorem we can set up the system of equations as follows:
x=y+1 ...(1)
2x+3= 3y + 3 ..(2)
By using equation (1) next step is to plug in y+1 for x in equation (2). So,
2 ( y + 1) + 3 = 3y + 3
2y + 2 + 3 = 3y + 3 By using distribution property.
2y + 5 = 3y + 3
2y + 5 - 5 = 3y + 3 - 5 Subtract 5 from each side.
2y = 3y - 2
2y - 3y = -2 Subtract 3y from each sides.
-y = -2
So, y=2
Next step is to plug in y=2 in equation (1) to get the value of x. Hence,
x= 2+1
=3
So, x=3 and y=2 make these triangles congruent.
So, the correct choice is 3. x = 3, y = 2.
Isocoleese means that 2 sides and hence 2 angles are same measure
acute means that all 3 angles are less than 90 degrees
We can rule out choice I since acut means less than 90
II is a possibility, but it doesn't best describe it
III. that is true, but it doesn't include the isocileese part
IV. that is true, but doesn't include the acute part
not sure, either III or IV
You want the (positive) distance when the height is 0, 0= -d^2 + 10d +5.
You would factor that out(You'd get radicals), and the final answer would be
<span>5±<span>30<span>−−</span>√</span></span><span>
You'd take the only positive one of the two, 5 + srt(30)
I hope I did that right :/</span>
