The length of the midsegment of a triangle is always half the length of the side it is parallel to true or false

1 answer:

3 0

True. The midsegment of a triangle is halfway up the triangle, and since the top half and the full triangle are similar triangles, its dimensions are proportional.

This means half the height will give half the base (midsegment). So the midsegment is always half the length of the side it's parallel to.

Roopesh has $24 dollars to spend on a birthday gift. The store where he is shopping has a sale offering $5 off the regular price

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

r ≤ 29, r-5

The sale price can be compared with the regular price, r-5 ≤ 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount to spend = $24

Regular price = r

Sale = $5

Sale Price = r-5

The regular price will be $5, at the max, more than the amount Roopesh has to spend.

The sale price will be $24 or less than that for Roopesh to afford.

Inequality for regular price:

r-5 ≤ 24

r ≤ 29

So, the product Roopesh can afford is $29 or less than that.

What is the unknown? r ≤ 29

Following expression can represent the sale price:

Sale price = r-5

The sale price can be compared with the regular price with the following:

Inequality representing the situation: r-5 ≤ 24
