Use complete sentences to describe why postulates are helpful?

Mathematics

anastassius [24]3 years ago

Answer:

  • Postulates are the most important building blocks of geometric proofs.
  • Postulates are often the basic truth of a much larger theory or law. Postulates themselves cannot be proven, but since they are usually obviously correct this is not a problem.
  • A postulate (also sometimes called an axiom) is a statement that is agreed by everyone to be correct.

     A good example of a postulate is given by Euclid as:

          "  Two points determine (make) a line "

<span>Postulates are helpful because it helps you plan and solve geometry problems.
That's my guess. It doesn't tell me in the text either.</span>

I need an answer to this big question
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

RS + ST = RT

23 - 2x     +     9x - 5     =     39

18 + 7x = 39

7x = 39 - 18 = 21

x= 21/7

x = 3

RS = 23 - 2x (given)

RS = 23 - 2(3)

     = 23 - 6

RS = 17

Algebra 2: PLEASE HELP ME!!
vfiekz [6]

Looks more like Trig than Algebra II

They want us to apply the sum angle formula to \sin(x + \frac{5 \pi}{6})

5π/6 is 150°; I find it easier to think in degrees.

When the tangent of x is 3/4 that's a right triangle with opposite 3, adjacent 4 so hypotenuse 5. So a sine of 3/5 and a cosine of 4/5, both positive because we're told x is in the first quadrant.

The sine sum angle formula is

\sin(a+b) = \sin a \cos b + \cos a \sin b

\sin(x+\frac{5\pi}{6}) = \sin x  \cos \frac{5\pi}{6} + \cos x \sin \frac{5\pi}{6}

We know sin 150° = sin 30° = 1/2 and cos 150° = - cos 30° = -√3/2

\sin(x+\frac{5\pi}{6}) = \frac 3 5  (- \sqrt{3}/2)  + \frac 4 5 (1/2)

\sin(x+\frac{5\pi}{6}) = \dfrac{ 4- 3\sqrt{3}}{10}

Third choice

What is the diameter of a circle with the circumference of 18 feet
Olegator [25]

Answer:

5.732484076 =d

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference is given by

C = pi*d

18 = 3.14 *d

Divide each side by 3.14

18/3.14 = 3.14d/3.14

5.732484076 =d
