The triangles KLH and FLH are congruent by the hypotenuse leg theorem (HL theorem for short) because KL = LF is one pair of congruent legs and LM = LM is the pair of congruent hypotenuses. This theorem only works for right triangles.

By CPCTC (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent), this means we can say that the bottom two angles KHL and FHL are congruent

So,

angle KHL = angle FHL

6y = 4y+18 ... substitution

6y-4y = 4y+18-4y .... subtract 4y from both sides

2y = 18

2y/2 = 18/2 ... divide both sides by 2

y = 9

Answer: 9

How can the scaling of a line graph be used to mislead a reader?

Anna [14]

Misleading may be present even though all graphs may share the same data, and even the slope of the data is the same. If the way the data is plotted is not correct, it can change the visual appearance of the angle made by the line on the graph. This is so because each plot has different scales on its vertical axis. As the scales are not correctly shown then there is where the misleading appears.
