The temperature at a ski resort was 12°F at 5:00 A.M. If the temperature increased by 1.5°F each hour, what would be the tempera
Mariana [72]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

22.5° F.

Explanation:

The temperature increases 1.5° per hour.  From 5:00 AM to 12:00 PM is 12-5 = 7 hours.  This makes an increase of 1.5(7) = 10.5°.

The temperature started at 12°F; increasing by 10.5° gives us

12+10.5 = 22.5°F.

If PQR = STU, find the measure of each part.
alina1380 [7]

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Two triangles are said to be congruent if for the two triangles all the three sides are equal and all the three angles are equal to each other.

Given that ΔPQR is congruent to ΔSTU, hence all corresponding sides and corresponding angles are equal to each other.

∠P = ∠S = 59°

∠S + ∠T + ∠U = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

59 + 75 + ∠U = 180°

134 + ∠U = 180°

∠U = 46°

∠U = ∠R = 46°

∠Q = ∠T = 75°

Also, for the sides:

ST = PQ = 7 m

SU = PR = 8 m
