Help with this two column proof

Mathematics
1 answer:
ddd [48]3 years ago

We're given LM = NO which will be used in substitution later.

By the segment addition postulate, we can write 
LN = LM+MN
which basically says "glue LM and MN together to get LN". All three segments fall on the same line.

Now substitute or replace LM with NO. This works because LM = NO is given

So we go from this
LN = LM+MN
to this
LN = NO+MN

Rearrange terms to go from 
LN = NO+MN
to 
LN = MN+NO
The formal property used is the "Commutative Property of Addition"

Now notice on the right hand side we can combine MN and NO to get MO. Again this is using the segment addition postulate. 

So the last step is going from 
LN = MN+NO
to 
LN = MO

Have a look at the attached image to see how to format this proof into a two-column proof.

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the distance of the missing side. (I’m sorry I need help with the whole thing)
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

1: 5.83

2: 4.12

3: 3.61

4: 5

5: 6.32

6: 5.10

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2

For all of these you can count the number of blocks over to find two sides of the triangle.

For example: the first one has two sides, one is 3 units, the other is 5. To find the missing angle you square 3 and 5, then add that together. That is equal to 34. 34 = c^2. To get the c by itself, you then take the square root of 34. So the missing side (c) is equal to 5.83.

How can the scaling of a line graph be used to mislead a reader?
Anna [14]
Misleading may be present even t<span>hough all graphs may share the same data, and even the </span>slope<span> of the </span><span>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.</span>

Points A and Blie in plane R. Line AB does not lie in plane R.<br> always<br> sometimes<br> never
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Never

Step-by-step explanation: If two points are on the same plane but a line containing those two points is not on the same plane, the statement will never be true. Picture a cube and on one face of the cube lies two points, if there is a line containing those points, the line also has to be on the same side or face. It will always run parallel to the same side but will also always be touching that side.
