The sum of 3 consecutive even integers is 576. Find the integers

1 answer:

4 0

You can write the equation
x+1+x+3+x+5=576
Combine like terms
3x+9=576
Subtract 9 from both sides
3x+9-9=576-9
3x=567
Divide both sides by 3
3x/3=567/3
x=189
The first integer is 190, the second is 192 and the third is 194 (enter it into the original equation to get those answers)

Congruent shapes are the same, so its safe to say that congruent shapes must also be similar.

Two angles are said to be complementary, if the sum of the measures of the to angles is equal to 90 degrees.

Thus, given that HFG is complementary to ACB, them mHFG + mACB = 90 degrees.

From the figure, given that the line from point F meats line CE at point P, then HFG = CFP.
But mCFE = 90 degrees and mCFE = mCFP + mPFE
Also PFE = DFH

Thus, mCFE = mCFP + mPFE = mHFG + mDFH = 90 degrees

Recall that mHFG + mACB = 90 degrees

Thus, mHFG + mACB = mHFG + mDFH

Therefore, mACB = mDFH.
