Find all the missing sides or angles in each right triangles

astra-53 [7]

In previous lessons, we used the parallel postulate to learn new theorems that enabled us to solve a variety of problems about parallel lines:

Parallel Postulate: Given: line l and a point P not on l. There is exactly one line through P that is parallel to l.

In this lesson we extend these results to learn about special line segments within triangles. For example, the following triangle contains such a configuration:

Triangle △XYZ is cut by AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ where A and B are midpoints of sides XZ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ and YZ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ respectively. AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ is called a midsegment of △XYZ. Note that △XYZ has other midsegments in addition to AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯. Can you see where they are in the figure above?

If we construct the midpoint of side XY¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ at point C and construct CA¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ and CB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ respectively, we have the following figure and see that segments CA¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ and CB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ are midsegments of △XYZ.

In this lesson we will investigate properties of these segments and solve a variety of problems.

Properties of midsegments within triangles

We start with a theorem that we will use to solve problems that involve midsegments of triangles.

Midsegment Theorem: The segment that joins the midpoints of a pair of sides of a triangle is:

parallel to the third side. half as long as the third side.

Proof of 1. We need to show that a midsegment is parallel to the third side. We will do this using the Parallel Postulate.

Consider the following triangle △XYZ. Construct the midpoint A of side XZ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯.

By the Parallel Postulate, there is exactly one line though A that is parallel to side XY¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯. Let’s say that it intersects side YZ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ at point B. We will show that B must be the midpoint of XY¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ and then we can conclude that AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ is a midsegment of the triangle and is parallel to XY¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯.

We must show that the line through A and parallel to side XY¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ will intersect side YZ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ at its midpoint. If a parallel line cuts off congruent segments on one transversal, then it cuts off congruent segments on every transversal. This ensures that point B is the midpoint of side YZ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯.

Since XA¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯≅AZ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯, we have BZ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯≅BY¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯. Hence, by the definition of midpoint, point B is the midpoint of side YZ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯. AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ is a midsegment of the triangle and is also parallel to XY¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯.

Proof of 2. We must show that AB=12XY.

In △XYZ, construct the midpoint of side XY¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ at point C and midsegments CA¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ and CB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ as follows:

First note that CB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∥XZ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ by part one of the theorem. Since CB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∥XZ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ and AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∥XY¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯, then ∠XAC≅∠BCA and ∠CAB≅∠ACX since alternate interior angles are congruent. In addition, AC¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯≅CA¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯.

Hence, △AXC≅△CBA by The ASA Congruence Postulate. AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯≅XC¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ since corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. Since C is the midpoint of XY¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯, we have XC=CY and XY=XC+CY=XC+XC=2AB by segment addition and substitution.

So, 2AB=XY and AB=12XY. ⧫

Example 1

Use the Midsegment Theorem to solve for the lengths of the midsegments given in the following figure.

M, N and O are midpoints of the sides of the triangle with lengths as indicated. Use the Midsegment Theorem to find

A. MN. B. The perimeter of the triangle △XYZ. A. Since O is a midpoint, we have XO=5 and XY=10. By the theorem, we must have MN=5. B. By the Midsegment Theorem, OM=3 implies that ZY=6; similarly, XZ=8, and XY=10. Hence, the perimeter is 6+8+10=24.

We can also examine triangles where one or more of the sides are unknown.

Example 2

Use the Midsegment Theorem to find the value of x in the following triangle having lengths as indicated and midsegment XY¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯.

By the Midsegment Theorem we have 2x−6=12(18). Solving for x, we have x=152.

Find the diameter of a circle whose equation is

Olin [163]

Answer:

D) 20

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + (y - 2)^2=100

This can be rewritten as

(x-0)^2 + (y - 2)^2=10^2

This is in the form

(x-h)^2 + (y - k)^2=r^2

The radius is 10

The diameter is 2 times the radius

d = 2*r = 2*10 = 20

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient r=-0.84 denotes that there is inverse relationship between x and y. It means that as the x values increase the y values decrease whereas as the x values decreases the y-values increases. Also, r=-0.84 denotes the strong relationship between x and y because it is close to 1. So, r=-0.84 denotes that there is strong linear relationship between x and y with smaller x values tending to be associated with larger y values.

Ronald saves 10.00 to buy a new book. The book original price was 15 but it was on sale for 35% off with a 6% sales tax. Does he

Lady bird [3.3K]

$6.89

The book is $10. Minus the 35% discount ($10X0.35=$3.50). So the subtotal is $10-$3.50=$6.50.

Tax is 6%. So 0.06X$6.50=$0.39

The total including tax is $6.50+$0.39=$6.89
