Use Pythagorean's Theorem to solve for the missing leg length.

32^2-18^2=a^2

with a being the length of the missing leg. Simplifying we have

1024-324=a^2

and

a^2=700. If we are told to express our answer to the nearest tenth of an inch, then we are simply plugging that into our calculator to get 26.45 or, rounded correctly, 26.5

Segment addition with variables

<em>x equals 22</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

____________________________________________

The Segment Postulate states the following:

<em>Given two end points A and B, a third point C lines on the segment AB if and only if the distances between the points satisfy the equation:</em>

\overline{AB}=\overline{AC}+\overline{CB}

____________________________________________

From the figure:

\overline{AC}=8+x \\ \\ \overline{CB}=10 \\ \\ \overline{AB}=40

Our goal is to find x:

\overline{AB}=\overline{AC}+\overline{CB} \\ \\ Substituting \ values: \\ \\ 40=(8+x)+10 \\ \\ 18+x=40 \\ \\ Subtracting \ 18 \ from \ both \ sides: \\ \\ 18-18+x=40-18 \\ \\ \boxed{x=22}

Which statements are always true regarding the diagram? Check all that apply. m∠3 + m∠4 = 180° m∠2 + m∠4 + m∠6 = 180° m∠2 + m∠4
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

The true statements are:

m∠ 3 + m∠ 4 = 180° ⇒ 1st

m∠ 2 + m∠ 4 + m∠ 6 = 180° ⇒ 2nd

m∠ 2 + m∠ 4 = m∠ 5 ⇒ 3rd

Step-by-step explanation:

* Look to the attached diagram to answer the question

# m∠ 3 + m∠ 4 = 180°

∵ ∠ 3 and ∠ 4 formed a straight angle

∵ The measure of the straight angle is 180°

∴ m∠ 3 + m∠ 4 = 180° ⇒ <em>true</em>

# m∠ 2 + m∠ 4 + m∠ 6 = 180°

∵ ∠ 2 , ∠ 4 , ∠ 6 are the interior angles of the triangle

∵ The sum of the measures of interior angles of any Δ is 180°

∴ m∠ 2 + m∠ 4 + m∠ 6 = 180° ⇒ <em>true</em>

# m∠ 2 + m∠ 4 = m∠ 5

∵ In any Δ, the measure of the exterior angle at one vertex of the

  triangle equals the sum of the measures of the opposite interior

  angles of this vertex

∵ ∠ 5 is the exterior angle of the vertex of ∠ 6

∵ ∠2 and ∠ 4 are the opposite interior angles to ∠ 6

∴ m∠ 2 + m∠ 4 = m∠ 5 ⇒ <em>true </em>

# m∠1 + m∠2 = 90°

∵ ∠ 1 and ∠ 2 formed a straight angle

∵ The measure of the straight angle is 180°

∴ m∠1 + m∠2 = 90° ⇒ <em>Not true</em>

# m∠4 + m∠6 = m∠2

∵ ∠ 4 , ∠ 6 , ∠ 2 are the interior angles of a triangle

∵ There is no given about their measures

∴ We can not says that the sum of the measures of ∠ 4 and ∠ 6 is

  equal to the measure of ∠ 2

∴ m∠4 + m∠6 = m∠2 ⇒ <em>Not true</em>

<em></em>

# m∠2 + m∠6 = m∠5

∵ ∠ 5 is the exterior angle at the vertex of ∠ 6

∴ m∠ 2 + m∠ 6 = m∠ 5 ⇒ <em>Not true</em>
