In congruent figures, corresponding angles have equal measures. true or false?

1 answer:

8 0

This is true

Think of two houses. If we say "the houses are identical" then the corresponding pieces must be the same (eg: the doors must be the same type out of the same material). In this analogy, the houses are the triangles, which are the overall structures. The doors are the angles since they are pieces of the overall structures. This is what CPCTC is saying

CPCTC = Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent

Once again, the final answer is true.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-6, -8) and has a slope of 1/3

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer <u>(assuming it can be in point-slope form)</u>:

$y + 8 = \frac{1}{3} (x+6)$

Step-by-step explanation:

With the given information, we can use the point-slope formula, $y-y_1 = m (x-x_1)$ , to write the equation of the line. Substitute values for the $m$ , $x_1$ , and $y_1$ in the formula to do so.

The $m$ represents the slope, so substitute $\frac{1}{3}$ in its place. The $x_1$ and $y_1$ represent the x and y values of one point the line intersects, so substitute -6 for $x_1$ and -8 for $y_1$ . This gives the following answer and equation (just make sure to convert the double negatives into positives:
