Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Two supplementary angles add up to 180°

Suppose x + y = 180 and y = x - 40

first we substitute y by x - 40 in the equation x + y = 180 ,we get:

x + (x - 40) = 180

then

2x - 40 = 180

then

2x = 180 + 40

= 220

then

x = 220/2

= 110

therefore

y = 110 - 40

= 70

(6x+2)^2=36x^2+Bx+4 How Would You Answer That. I'm Not That Good At Algebra.

Verizon [17]

Let's multiply out the equation 6x+2 times 6x+2 using the square. Draw a 2 by 2 bow and put the equation across the bottom and verically. Multiply across to get this. 6x times 6x =36x^2 6x times two =12x do it again and get 12x. 2*2=4. That means x would equal 24.

Write an informal proof to show triangles ABC and DEF are similar. Please don’t answer if you don’t know!!

Mila [183]

Answer:

ΔABC ~ ΔDEF

Step-by-step explanation:

If the given triangles ΔABC and ΔDEF are similar,

Their corresponding sides will be proportional.

$\frac{\text{AB}}{\text{DE}}=\frac{\text{BC}}{\text{EF}}=\frac{\text{AC}}{\text{DF}}$
