Find the values of x and y that make these triangles congruent by HL.

Serhud [2]3 years ago

Leg CB = x and leg DE = y - 1. Becuase of the markings on the triangles, we know that CB = DE; therefore, x = y - 1. So let's use that x value when we set the 2 hypotenuses equal to each other. Before any substition, 3x - 2 = 2y + 1. Subbing in for x we have 3(y - 1) - 2 = 2y + 1. And 3y - 3 - 2 = 2y + 1. Combining like terms we have y = 6. If y = 6, we will sub it into the leg equation to find x. x = y - 1; therefore, x = 6 - 1 and x = 5. There you go! x = 5 and y = 6

Write a polynomial function f of least degree that has rational coefficients, a leading coefficient of 1, and the zeros −3 and 5
love history [14]

Answer:

<em>f(x) = x² (2+i)x-15-3i</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the zeros of the equation are -3 and 5+i, hence the factors of the polynomial in x is (x+3) and (x-(5+i))

Multiplying both factors

f(x) =  (x+3)(x-(5+i))

f(x) = (x²-(5+i)x+3x -3(5+i))

f(x) = x² - (5+i- 3)x -15-3i

f(x) = x² (2+i)x-15-3i

<em>hence the required polynomial function in x is f(x) = x² (2+i)x-15-3i</em>

The midpoint formula is:
(point1 + point2)/2

1) (-2 + 12)/2 = 5

2) (-1 +5)/2 = 2
    (0+2)/2 = 1
     (2,1)

3) Sqrt of (x2-x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2
     sqrt of (7 -1)^2 + (-7 - 1)^2
     sqrt of (6)^2 + (-8)^2
     sqrt of 36 + 64
     sqrt of 100
     10

Hope this helps!
