A pair of perpendicular lines would be line CF and line AJ.
Line BC and line AJ are NOT perpendicular because when a pair of lines are perpendicular, all angles become 90 degrees. It is obvious, in the case, if you were to slide line BC on top of line AJ, the angles will not equal 90 degrees.
G divides each median in the ratio of 2 to 1 (the longer side goes from G to the angle)
triangle AMN is similar to triangle ABC (why?)
AMN is a scaled version of ABC (by a factor of ⅔)
its area should be scaled by (⅔)^2
If given ratio is 3.5 gallons per minute and we want to cups per second we can do this knowing that
1 gallon= 16cups
1min = 60sec
ratio=3.5
Its the result
Answers:
The length of XY is 4
The length of ZW is 6
Because we don't get the same length (for XY and ZW), this means that the segments are not congruent.
-------------------------------------------------------------
To find the length of segment XY, you can count the number of spaces between -7 and -3 to get 4 units. Or you can subtract and use the absolute value notation to ensure the result is positive
|-7-(-3)| = |-7+3| = |-4| = 4
Do the same for segment ZW.
|2-8| = |-6| = 6
