Answer:

s=12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that triangle ABC is similar to XYZ, we know that the side lengths will be proportional to one another. As such, we should take a ratio to determine the side length of s.

$\frac{XY}{AB}=\frac{XZ}{AC}\\\\\frac{9}{6} =\frac{s}{8}\\\frac{8*9}{6} =s\\s=72/6=12\\s=12$

Given ∠8≅∠12 .

Serggg [28]

Your answer would be B
When you have two angles, and want to know which lines must be congruent, you have to look at the transversal first. The two angles will share a side which is the transversal, and then their other side is one of the parallel lines.
The converse of the corresponding angles theorem states that If corresponding angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel.

A right triangle has a perimeter of 24 cm and a hypotenuse of 10 cm. Find the length of the other two sides.

jekas [21]

Answer:

One of the sides is 6 cm and the other is 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the unknown sides a and b. From the perimeter information (24 cm) we have:

a + b + hypotenuse = 24

a + b + 10 = 24

a + b = 14

b = 14 - a

So now we can right the Pythagorean theorem as follows:

$a^2 + b^2 = hypotenuse^2\\a^2 + (14-a)^2=10^2\\a^2+ 14^2-28\,a+a^2=100\\2\,a^2-28\,a +96=0\\2\,(a^2-14\,a+48)=0\\2\,(a^2-6\,a-8\,a+48)=0\\2(a\,(a-6)-8\,(a-6))=0\\2\,(a-6)\,(a-8)=0$

and from this expression in factor form to be zero a must be 6 or a must be 8.

Therefore the solutions are a = 6 (and therefore b = 14 - 6 = 8)

or a = 8 (and therefore b = 14 - 8 = 6)

Subtract.

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

7x^(2)-3x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

(5x^(2) - 3x - 2) - (-2x^(2) - +10)

(5x^(2))- (-2x^(2))=7x^(2)

(- 2)-(+10)=+8

7x^(2)-3x+8
