In ∆FDH, there are two slash marks in two of its legs. This indicates that this triangle is isosceles. If a triangle is isosceles, then it will have two congruent sides and therefore have two congruent angles.
In ∆FDH, angle D is already given to us as the measure of 80°. We can find out the measure of the other angles of this triangle by using the equation:
80 + 2x = 180
Subtract 80 from both sides of the equation.
2x = 100
Divide both sides by 2.
x = 50
This means that angle F and angle H in ∆FDH both measure 50°.
Now, moving over to the next smaller triangle in the picture is ∆DHG. In this triangle, there are also two legs that are congruent which once again indicates that this triangle is isosceles.
First, we have to solve for angle DHG and we do that by using the information obtained from solving for the angles of the other triangle.
**In geometry, remember that two or more consecutive angles that form a line will always be supplementary; the angles add up to 180°.**
In this case angle DHF and angle DHG are consecutive angles which form a linear pair. So, we can use the equation:
Angle DHF + Angle DHG = 180°
50° + Angle DHG = 180°.
Angle DHG = 130°.
Now that we know the measure of one angle in ∆DHG, we can use the same method as the previous step for solving the missing angles. Use the equation:
130 + 2x = 180
2x = 50
x = 25
The other two missing angles of ∆DHG are 25°. This means that the measure of angle 1 is also 25°.
Solution: 25°

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Therefore the rate change of distance between the car and the person at the instant, the car is 24 m from the intersection is 12 m/s.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
A person stand 10 meters east of an intersection and watches a car driving towards the intersection from the north at 13 m/s.
From Pythagorean Theorem,
(The distance between car and person)²= (The distance of the car from intersection)²+ (The distance of the person from intersection)²+
Assume that the distance of the car from the intersection and from the person be x and y at any time t respectively.
∴y²= x²+10²
Differentiating with respect to t
Since the car driving towards the intersection at 13 m/s.
so,
Now
= -12 m/s
Negative sign denotes the distance between the car and the person decrease.
Therefore the rate change of distance between the car and the person at the instant, the car is 24 m from the intersection is 12 m/s.
Answer:
Slope (m) = infinity
Step-by-step explanation:
Given points:
⇒ (9, 2) and (9, 27)
In order to find the <em>slope</em> of these points, we must use the <em>slope</em> formula.
So the formula is ⇒ y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁
<em>Plug</em> in the<em> given </em>points:
⇒ 27 - 2 / 9 - 9
Solve both the top and bottom (<em>numerator and denominator</em>):
⇒ 25 / 0
Divide:
⇒<em> Undefined. </em>
(<em>Anything</em><em> </em>divided by <em>zero</em> is undefined).
