Answer with explanation:

Theorem : The diagonal of a parallelogram divides it into two congruent triangles.

Properties of parallelogram

1. Opposite sides are equal and parallel.

2. Diagonal bisect each other.

3. Opposite Angles are equal.

If you will look at the first three options

A: Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect opposite angles.→→False(Alternate angles are equal)

B: Consecutive sides of a parallelogram are congruent.→→→False(Opposite sides are congruent)

C: Consecutive angles of a parallelogram are congruent.→→→False(Opposite angles are congruent)

D: Consecutive angles of a parallelogram are supplementary.→→→→True

For,any parallelogram, having vertices , A, B and C and D

Opposite sides are parallel, so

1.∠A + ∠B=180°

2.∠C + ∠B=180°

3.∠C+ ∠D=180°

4. ∠A + ∠D=180°

Option D

Find the angle between the given vectors. Round your answer, in degrees, to two decimal places. u=⟨2,−6⟩u=⟨2,−6⟩, v=⟨4,−7⟩

NISA [10]

Answer:

$\theta = 108.29$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$u =$

$v =$

Required:

Calculate the angle between u and v

The angle $\theta$ is calculated as thus:

$cos\theta = \frac{u.v}{|u|.|v|}$

For a vector

$A =$

$A = a * b$

$cos\theta = \frac{u.v}{|u|.|v|}$ becomes

$cos\theta = \frac{.}{|u|.|v|}$

$cos\theta = \frac{2*6+4*-7}{|u|.|v|}$

$cos\theta = \frac{12-28}{|u|.|v|}$

$cos\theta = \frac{-16}{|u|.|v|}$

For a vector

$A =$

$|A| = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2}$

So;

$|u| = \sqrt{2^2 + 6^2}$

$|u| = \sqrt{4 + 36}$

$|u| = \sqrt{40}$

$|v| = \sqrt{4^2+(-7)^2}$

$|v| = \sqrt{16+49}$

$|v| = \sqrt{65}$

So:

$cos\theta = \frac{-16}{|u|.|v|}$

$cos\theta = \frac{-16}{\sqrt{40}*\sqrt{65}}$

$cos\theta = \frac{-16}{\sqrt{2600}}$

$cos\theta = \frac{-16}{\sqrt{100*26}}$

$cos\theta = \frac{-16}{10\sqrt{26}}$

$cos\theta = \frac{-8}{5\sqrt{26}}$

Take arccos of both sides

$\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{-8}{5\sqrt{26}})$

$\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{-8}{5 * 5.0990})$

$\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{-8}{25.495})$

$\theta = cos^{-1}(-0.31378701706)$

$\theta = 108.288386087$

<em></em> $\theta = 108.29$ <em> (approximated)</em>

I really need help with this 6th grade work due today

DIA [1.3K]

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Length (L) = u

Breadth (b) = 6 mi

Perimeter (P) = 22 miles

Now we know

P = 2 (L+ b)

22 = 2 ( u + 6)

11 = u + 6

11 - 6 = u

u = 5

What is the range of possible sizes for side x? _ < x < _

qwelly [4]

Answer:

2.8 < x < 5.8

Step-by-step explanation:

We must apply the Triangle Inequality Theorem which states that for any triangle with sides a, b, and c:

a + b > c

b + c > a

c + a > b

Here, let's arbitrarily denote a as 4.1, b as 1.3, and c as x. So, let's plug these values into the 3 inequalities listed above:

a + b > c ⇒ 4.1 + 1.3 > x ⇒ 5.8 > x

b + c > a ⇒ 1.3 + x > 4.1 ⇒ x > 2.8

c + a > b ⇒ x + 4.1 > 1.3 ⇒ x > -2.8

Look at the last two: clearly if x is greater than 2.8 (from the second one), then it will definitely be greater than -2.8 (from the third), so we can just disregard the last inequality.

Thus, the range of possible sizes for x are:

2.8 < x < 5.8
