Question is Incomplete, Complete question is given below:

In Triangle ABC shown below, side AB is 6 and side AC is 4.

Which statement is needed to prove that segment DE is parallel to segment BC and half its length?

Answer

Segment AD is 3 and segment AE is 2.

Segment AD is 3 and segment AE is 4.

Segment AD is 12 and segment AE is 4.

Segment AD is 12 and segment AE is 8.

Answer:

Segment AD is 3 and segment AE is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

side AB = 6

side AC = 4

Now we need to prove  that segment DE is parallel to segment BC and half its length.

Solution:

Now AD + DB = AB also AE + EC = AC

DB = AB - AD also EC = AC - AE

Now we take first option Segment AD is 3 and segment AE is 2.

Substituting we get;

DB = 6-3 = 3 also EC = 4-2 =2

From above we can say that;

AD = DB and EC = AE

So we can say that segment DE bisects Segment AB and AC equally.

Hence From Midpoint theorem which states that;

"The line segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and is congruent to one half of the third side."

Hence Proved.

How many times greater is the value of the 3 in 4,367 than the value of the 3 in 39?​
Lesechka [4]

Answer: Roughly 111.97

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 39 divided by 3 is 13.  

2. 4367 divided by 3 is not evenly distributed. Rounding, it would work out to be roughly 1455.66 

3. 1455.66 divided by 13 is roughly 111.97 (Again, this does not distribute evenly)

4. To check your work, multiply 111.97 times 13 and you should get somewhere around 1455.66 which is (4367 divided by 3).

Hopefully this helps! Feel free to mark brainliest! :)
