Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔABC, m∠B = m∠C.

BH is angle B bisector, then by definition of angle bisector

∠CBH ≅ ∠HBK

m∠CBH = m∠HBK = 1/2m∠B

CK is angle C bisector, then by definition of angle bisector

∠BCK ≅ ∠KCH

m∠BCK = m∠KCH = 1/2m∠C

Since m∠B = m∠C, then

m∠CBH = m∠HBK = 1/2m∠B = 1/2m∠C = m∠BCK = m∠KCH   (*)

Consider triangles CBH and BCK. In these triangles,

  • ∠CBH ≅ ∠BCK (from equality (*));
  • ∠HCB ≅ ∠KBC, because m∠B = m∠C;
  • BC ≅CB by reflexive property.

So, triangles CBH and BCK are congruent by ASA postulate.

Congruent triangles have congruent corresponding sides, hence

BH ≅ CK.

A professor wants to know how undergraduate students at X University feel about food services on campus, in general. She obtains
hammer [34]

Answer:

15000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a professor wants to know how undergraduate students at X University feel about food services on campus, in general. She obtains a list of email addresses of all 15,000 registered undergraduates from the registrar’s office and mails a questionnaire to 300 students selected at random.

Only 150 questionnaires are returned.

So the sample size changed to 150. But population is the number of registered undergraduates which do not change.

Population size = 15000
