Do the opposite angles in a parallelogram have the same measure please explain why

1 answer:

4 0

Yes, opposite angles in a parallelogram always have equal measures. This is a defined property of parallelograms and an easy way to check if the shape is one. Since a parallelogram has 4 angles and the 2 sets of sides are parallel, any 2 adjacent angles have a sum of 180 degrees. Using this, the 2 adjacent angles to any one angle must be opposite to each other and therefore equal.

Find x (round to the nearest tenth)

never [62]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

By AA similarity, ΔABD ~ ΔCDE. So, corresponding sides are proportional.

AB/BD = CD/DE

x/12 = 4/6

x = 12(4/6)

x = 8

Determine what the solution is to the following system? Y=3/4x-1 & y=4/3x-1

vichka [17]

Answer:

(0, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are multiple ways of solving this however- since both equations are already in Y-Intercept form, we will use the "Equal Values Method"

First, since both equations are equal to Y, we can set them equal to each other and solve for X

$\frac{3 }{4} x - 1 = \frac{4}{3} x - 1$

To start, you must eliminate the fraction using a "fraction buster" multiply EVERYTHING by 4 then simplify.

$3x - 4 = 5 \frac{1}{3}x - 4$

Since we still have a fraction, we shall do it one more time. This time we multiply by 3

$9x - 12 = 6 x - 12$

Now, solve how you normally would.

9x = 6x

-6x

3x = 0

X = 0

Now, since we know what X would equal in the solution, we are able to plug in X as 0 in one of our equations. We can choose the first one!

$y = \frac{3}{4} (0) - 1$

Now solve which would lead to y = -1

You have your solution as

(X,Y)

(0,-1)

Hope this helps!

Big Lots sells AA batteries for $ 5.88 you git a pack of 12. Walmart has the same batteries for $8.82 you git a pack of 18 batte

Bas_tet [7]

Answer: Neither, Both Unit Prices are equal.

Step-by-step explanation: In order to find the unit price of an item, you divide the quantity by the price. In this case, the Big Lots would be 5.88/12 which equals 49 cents. The Walmart Batteries are 8.82/18 which is also 49 cents. So both batteries are the same price, you should buy the better quality battery in this situation.
