How many different triangles can you make with the following conditions: angles measuring 45 degrees and 90 degrees and an INCLU

Answer:

One

Step-by-step explanation:

Clearly, one triangle can be constructed as the angles 45 and 90 do not exceed 180 degrees. (so "None" is not correct)

To show that only one such triangle exists, you can apply the Angle-Side-Angle theorem for congruence.

Since one triangle can be constructed, it remains to be shown that no additional triangle that is not congruent to the first one can be created: I will use proof by contradiction. Let a triangle ABC be constructed with two angles 45 and 90 degree and one included side of length 1 inch. Suppose, I now construct a second triangle that is different from the first one but still has the same two angles and included side. By applying the ASA theorem which states that two triangles with same two angles and one side included are congruent, I must conclude that my triangle is congruent to the first one. This is a contradiction, hence my original claim could not have been true. Therefore, there is no way to construct any additional triangle that would not be congruent with the first one, and only one such triangle exists.

Y=x-5; domain = {4,6,8}
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

Range = {-1, 1, 3}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question asks for the range.</em></u>

The function given is

y=x-5

The domain is the set of 3 numbers:

Domain = {4,6,8}

We need to find the range.

First, the range is the set of all y-values for which the function is defined.

When we will be given the domain with a set of numbers, the range would be the numbers that we get when we evaluate the the function at those numbers.

So, we evaluate the function (y-values) at x = 4,6, and 8.

At x = 4:

y=x-5\\y=4-5\\y=-1

At x = 6:

y=x-5\\y=6-5\\y=1

At x = 8:

y=x-5\\y=8-5\\y=3

Thus, the range is:

Range = {-1, 1, 3}

What is the x in 2/3×-10=-12 answer to 2/3×-10=-12
satela [25.4K]
X= -3

2/3x-10=12

Step 1: Add 10 to both sides.

2/3x=-2

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 3/2.

x= -3

The Smith family is shopping for a new car and they are basing their decision on color and style. Explain how many color choices
Yanka [14]
Sample response: The Smith family has 2 choices to make, color and style. By the fundamental counting principle, the product of the number of choices of color and style must equal 8. So, there could be 1 color and 8 style choices, 2 colors and 4 styles, 4 colors and 2 styles, or 8 colors and 1 style.
