Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When two lines intersect they form two pairs of opposite angles, A + C and B + D. Another word for opposite angles are vertical angles.

figure51

Vertical angles are always congruent, which means that they are equal.

Adjacent angles are angles that come out of the same vertex. Adjacent angles share a common ray and do not overlap.

figure52

The size of the angle xzy in the picture above is the sum of the angles A and B.

Two angles are said to be complementary when the sum of the two angles is 90°.

figure53

Two angles are said to be supplementary when the sum of the two angles is 180°.

figure54

If we have two parallel lines and have a third line that crosses them as in the ficture below - the crossing line is called a transversal

When a transversal intersects with two parallel lines eight angles are produced.

figure55

The eight angles will together form four pairs of corresponding angles. Angles 1 and 5 constitutes one of the pairs. Corresponding angles are congruent. All angles that have the same position with regards to the parallel lines and the transversal are corresponding pairs e.g. 3 + 7, 4 + 8 and 2 + 6.

Angles that are in the area between the parallel lines like angle 2 and 8 above are called interior angles whereas the angles that are on the outside of the two parallel lines like 1 and 6 are called exterior angles.

Angles that are on the opposite sides of the transversal are called alternate angles e.g. 1 + 8.

All angles that are either exterior angles, interior angles, alternate angles or corresponding angles are all congruent.

Example

figure56

The picture above shows two parallel lines with a transversal. The angle 6 is 65°. Is there any other angle that also measures 65°?

6 and 8 are vertical angles and are thus congruent which means angle 8 is also 65°.

6 and 2 are corresponding angles and are thus congruent which means angle 2 is 65°.

6 and 4 are alternate exterior angles and thus congruent which means angle 4 is 65°.

what's the difference between (-4)^-3 and -4^-3. basically what's the difference when there's parenthesis for the base number?
NNADVOKAT [17]
(-4)^-3 = \frac{1}{-64}  or -0.015625
-4^-3 = \frac{1}{-64} or -0.015625

Basically in this situation there is no difference whether parenthesis are used or not.

Which of the following is(are) true? I. The mean of a population depends on the particular sample chosen. II. The standard devia
Margarita [4]

Answer:

II and III

Step-by-step explanation:

From statement II in the question, it is true that the standard deviations of two different samples from the same population may be the same. The population standard deviation is a fixed value calculated from every individual in the population.  A sample standard deviation is calculated from only some of the individuals in a population.

Also from statement III, it is true that statistical inferences can be used to draw conclusions about the populations based on sample data. The mean of a population does not necessarily depends on the particular sample chosen. Therefore statement I is false.
