Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a distance between two points A(a) and B(b):

We have P(x + 3), Q(x- 3), R(x + 2).

Substitute:

d(P, Q) = |(x - 3) - (x + 3)| = |x - 3 - x - 3| = |-6| = 6

d(Q, R) = |(x + 2) - (x - 3)| = |x + 2 - x - (-3)| = |2 + 3| = |5| = 5

Morgan rolls a number cube, twice. If the number 1 shows up at least once, Morgan wins. Otherwise, Jaclyn wins. How much greater

alukav5142 [94]

I am assuming from the answer choices that you meant Jaclyn's chances of winning.

There are 6 sides of a dice and it's rolled twice.
6×2=12

So while Morgan has a 2/12 chance (simplified that would be 1/6), Jaclyn has a 10/12 chance of winning (simplified that would be 1/3).

Therefore your answer would be A: 1/3

after flying at an altitude of 50 meters, a helicopter starts to descend when its ground distance from the landing pad is 11 kil

yarga [219]

Answer:

The angle of depression for the flight part is approximately 0.2604 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The given altitude at which the helicopter is flying = 50 meters

The horizontal distance of the helicopter from the helipad = 11 kilometers = 11,000 meters

The angle of depression = The angle of elevation = Arctan(Altitude/(Horizontal distance)

Therefore;

The angle of depression for the flight part = Arctan(50/(11,000)) ≈ 0.2604 degrees

decide whether enough information is given to prove that triangle XYZ is congruent to triangle JKL. If so, state the term you us

Dafna1 [17]

The information given to us shows that triangles XYZ and JKL is not enough to prove they are congruent by AAS, ASA, nor SAS.

<h3>The Triangle Congruence Theorems</h3>

Two triangles are congruent by the AAS congruence theorem if they both have two pairs of congruent angles and a pair of congruent non-included sides.
Two triangles are congruent by the ASA congruence theorem if they both have two pairs of congruent angles and a pair of congruent included sides.
Two triangles are congruent by the SAS congruence theorem if they both have two pairs of congruent sides and a pair of congruent included angles.

Thus, the information given to us shows that triangles XYZ and JKL is not enough to prove they are congruent by AAS, ASA, nor SAS.
