Answer:
C. RTS
Step-by-step explanation:
When two triangles are congruent, they will have congruent vertices, like each vertex has a partner.
Take a look at the shape of the triangle.
If you look at the triangle on the right, you can see it is almost like a right triangle.
"R" is at the right angle. "S" is on the short side and "T" is on the long side.
In the triangle on the left, "M" is at the right angle. "N" is on the short side and "O" is on the long side.
Thus, the pairs of congruent angles are:
M ≅ R
O ≅ T
N ≅ S
When you write the statement of congruence between triangles, order the letters by their congruent pair.
MON ≅ RTS
Answer:
(-2, -3)
(3, 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we're gonna get rid of the y's with substitution
x² + 2x - 3 = 3x + 3
Let's make this equation equal to zero
Subtract 3 from both sides
x² + 2x - 3 = 3x + 3
- 3 - 3
x² + 2x - 6 = 3x
Subtract 3x from both sides
x² + 2x - 6 = 3x
- 3x - 3x
x² - x - 6 = 0
Factor the equation
(x - 3)(x + 2) = 0
This means x can be -2 or 3
Let's solve it with -2 first, plug the new x in y = 3x + 3
y = 3(-2) + 3
y = -6 + 3 = -3
Do the same for x = 3
y = 3(3) + 3
y = 9 + 3 = 12
With these transversals across parallel lines the angles are either congruent or supplementary (adding to 180) and its pretty easy to figure out which is which, obtuse verse acute in the figure.
Each yellow circle indicates x and the path to the next square. So for example the Start has alternate interior angles, which are congruent, so x is 141 degrees.
The answer is 405,076 meters.
