In the figure, and bisect each other. Complete the statements to prove that quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram.
1 answer:
Observe the figure below.
Statement Reason
1. AC and BD bisect each other Given
2. AE = EC and BE = ED Definition of bisection
3. Vertical angle theorem
Vertical angle theorem states " When two lines intersect each other, the vertically opposite angles are always equal".
4. SAS criterion for congruence
5. Corresponding angles of congruent triangles are congruent
6. Converse of alternate interior angle theorem
7. Vertical angle theorem
8. SAS criterion for congruence
9. Converse of alternate interior angle theorem
As, , so
as corresponding parts of corresponding triangles are equal. As these angles are alternate interior angles, so the lines BC and AD are parallel by "Converse of alternate interior angle theorem".

Answer:
The baseball reached 9 feet high above the ground
Step-by-step explanation:
The given quadratic function representing the position of the baseball above ground is p(t) = 1/2·g·t² + v₀·t + p₀
Where;
t ≥ 0
g = -32 ft./sec²
v₀ = The initial velocity
p₀ = The initial position
Given that when the ball is thrown, we have;
The initial, straight up, velocity, v₀ = 16 ft./sec
The initial position, p₀ = 5 ft.
Substituting the above values in the quadratic function representing the position of the baseball above ground, we have;
p(t) = 1/2·(-32)·t² + 16·t + 5 = 16·t - 16·t² + 5
At the maximum point, the rate of change of the height with time = 0, therefore;
dp(t)/dt = 0 = d(16·t - 16·t² + 5)/dt = 16 - 32·t
16 - 32·t = 0
16 = 32·t
t = 16/32 = 0.5 seconds
Therefore, the time takes to reach the maximum height = 0.5 seconds
The height (maximum) reached in 0.5 seconds is given as follows;
h(t) = 16·t - 16·t² + 5, from which we have;
h(0.5) = 16 × 0.5 - 16 × (0.5)² + 5 = 9
Therefore, the height baseball reached = 9 ft. above ground
