Which does NOT represent the interior angle measures of a triangle?

lord [1]

Answer:A

Step-by-step explanation:

Interior angles of a triangle ALWAYS have to be equal to 180

The sum of A is 180, however, those angles wont work because they have to be more close to eachother for it to be possible

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states the longest side must be shorter than the sum of the other 2 sides

Conditional Probability Assistance?

krek1111 [17]

Let the event $A=\{ Sophomore \}, B=\{ Boy \}$

The the probability of the events

$P(A \cap B)=\frac{5}{12+18} =\frac{1}{6}$

$P( B)=\frac{12}{12+18} =\frac{2}{5}$

The conditional probability

$P(Sophomore|Boy)=P(A|B)=\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)} =\frac{1/6}{2/5} =\frac{5}{12}$
