Which pair of triangles must​ be similar? help please
lubasha [3.4K]

If two pairs of corresponding angles in a pair of triangles are congruent, then the triangles are similar. We know this because if two angle pairs are the same, then the third pair must also be equal. When the three angle pairs are all equal, the three pairs of sides must also be in proportion.

hope this helps :)

Solve for c: a=7b+8c+9d-10
polet [3.4K]
<span>a=7b+8c+9d-10
a = 8c + 16d - 10
solve for c then
8c = a - 16d + 10
  c = (</span>a - 16d + 10) / 8
or
  c = a/8 - 2d + 5/4

5x + 6y = 20 , 8x - 6y = -46
serg [7]

Answer:

5x + 6y = 20_____(1)

8x - 6y = -46_____(2)

Solving simultaneously:

Eqn(1) + Eqn(2)

5x + 8x + 6y + (-6y) = 20 + (-46)

13x = -26

x = -2

substituting this into Eqn (1):

5(-2) + 6y = 20

-10 + 6y = 20

6y = 30

y = 5

hence:

x = -2,y = 5.

Please help really confused on all

\left \{ {{x - y = 1.50} \atop {40x + 40y = 940}} \right.  &#10; \\ \\&#10;*x - y = 1.50

x = 1.50 + y

*40x + 40y = 940
40 (1.50 + y) + 40y = 940
60 + 40y +40y = 940
60 + 80y = 940
80y = 940 - 60
80y = 880
y = 880/80
y = 11

*
x - y = 1.50
x - 11 = 1.50
x = 1.50 + 11
x = 12.5
