Answer:

Option D. y= 36

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given figure there are two triangles ΔMPO and ΔMNL

If two sides OP and LN are parallel and lines MN, ML are transverse respectively.

Then ∠MPO =∠MNL [ corresponding angles ]

and ∠MOP = ∠MLN [ corresponding angles ]

and ∠M is common to both the triangles.

Now by the property of AAA, ΔMPO & ΔMNL are similar

Now we know in similar triangles corresponding sides are in same ratio.

\frac{MP}{MN}=\frac{MO}{ML}

\frac{y}{y+18}=\frac{28}{28+14}=\frac{28}{42}=\frac{2}{3}

By cross multiplication

3y = 2(y + 18)

3y = 2y + 36

y = 36

Option D. y = 36 is the answer.

Answer:  The correct option is (D) 36.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the value of 'y' that would make OP parallel to LN.

MO = 28 units, OL= 14 units, Pl = 18 units and MP = y = ?

From the figure, we have

if OP ║ LN, then we must have

∠MOP = ∠MLN

and

∠MPO = ∠MNL.

Since ∠M is common to both the triangles MOP and MLN, so by AAA postulate, we get

ΔMOP similar to ΔMLN.

We know that the corresponding sides of two similar triangles are proportional, so

\dfrac{MO}{ML}=\dfrac{MP}{MN}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{MO}{MO+OL}=\dfrac{MP}{MP+PN}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{28}{28+14}=\dfrac{y}{y+18}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{28}{42}=\dfrac{y}{y+18}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{3}=\dfrac{y}{y+18}\\\\\\\Rightarrow 2y+36=3y\\\\\Rightarrow y=36.

Thus, the required value of 'y' is 36.

(D) is the correct option.

Use set notation to denote the elements, subsets, and complements of the following given sets.
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

N = {13, 15, 17, 19} is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>We are given with the following details:</u>

N is the set of odd natural numbers.

N contains the elements which are greater than 11 and less than 21.

<u>To write:</u> The set notation for the elements of set N.

<u>Solution:</u>

First of all, let us see what are odd natural numbers.

Natural numbers are the positive integers i.e. {1,2,3,4, ........ }

Odd Natural numbers are the natural numbers which leave remainder as 1 when divided by 2 i.e. {1,3,5,7,9,11,13, ...... 21, 23, 25, 27.....}

Here, set N is odd natural numbers greater than 11 (so 11 will not be included) and less than 21 (so 21 will not be included). Odd natural numbers between 11 and 21 will be included.

So the <em>answer will be N = {13,15,17,19}.</em>

Gaveing out points for helpers!!​
Alekssandra [29.7K]
Because the two angles add up to equal 90, you would make an equation set to equal 90. On the other end you add the measures of your angles together because they are adding up to equal 90. This would look like 2x+5+35=90 and you solve from here. Add like terms making it 2x+40=90 then you subtract 40 from both sides making it 2x=50 and then divide by 2 on both sides which leaves you with x=25.
