The HL Postulate
You know that the two hypotenuses are congruent and that the two triangles each contain a shared segment in the middle (so by the reflexive property they are congruent). You have two congruent hypotenuses and two congruent legs, so you can conclude congruency by HL.

Sure i can help where is it?
Answer:
- 3.5(1.6 + 4.6 - 8.5) - 9.75
- = 3.5(-2.3) - 9.75
- = -8.05 - 9.75
- = -17.8
Step-by-step explanation:
- 1.6 + 4.6 - 8.5 = -2.3
- 3.5(-2.3) = 3.5 × -2.3 = -8.05
- -8.05 - 9.75 = -17.8
I hope this helps!
Answer:
y = -1/3x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The gradient of the given line is 3 because (y = mx +c where m is the gradient)
Therefore, to find the gradient of the perpendicular line (at 90 degrees), you need to find the negative reciprocal.
The negative reciprocal of 3 is -1/3 because imagine if 3 = 3/1, to get the reciprocal, you flip it, and to get the negative, you just flip the sign.
Now we know that Line M is y = -1/3x + c, we need to find the y-intercept.
To do this, just input the point (3,1) into y = -1/3x + c, to get c. This is because we know (3,1) is on the line from the question.
So it would be 1 = (-1/3 x 3) +c
Which would be 1 = -1 +c
And so c = 2
Put everything together and you get y = -1/3x + 2
