In ΔABC shown below, BD over BA equals BE over BC: Triangle ABC with segment DE intersecting sides AB and BC respectively. The f

ollowing flowchart proof with missing statements and reasons proves that if a line intersects two sides of a triangle and divides these sides proportionally, the line is parallel to the third side: Top path, by Given the ratio of line segments BD to BA is equal to the ratio of line segments BE to BC. By Side Angle Side Similarity Postulate, triangle ABC is similar to triangle DBE. By Corresponding Parts of Similar Triangles, angle BDE is congruent to angle BAC. By Converse of the Corresponding Angles Postulate, line segment DE is parallel to line segment AC. Bottom path, by space labeled as 2, space labeled by 1 occurs. By Side Angle Side Similarity Postulate, triangle ABC is similar to triangle DBE. By Corresponding Parts of Similar Triangles, angle BDE is congruent to angle BAC. By Converse of the Corresponding Angles Postulate, line segment DE is parallel to line segment AC. Which reason can be used to fill in the numbered blank space? 1. ∠A ≅ ∠A 2.

Answer:

  1. ∠B ≅ ∠B

  2. Reflexive Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding sides are shown proportional in the top path.

In order to invoke SAS, corresponding angles must be shown congruent in the bottom path. Angle B is the the angle of interest in each of the relevant triangles, so it must be shown congruent to itself. The appropriate choice is ...

  1. ∠B ≅ ∠B
  2. Reflexive Property of Equality

Matt bought an iPod from the Apple Store for $350. If it's value will depreciate by $52 a year, how much should Matt sell his iP
Bogdan [553]
Decreasing by $52 every year, we need to subtract 52 for each year. 

350 is the original price. 
52x is the amount decreased by how many years

350 - 52(3) = ?
350-156 = 194

Answer: Matt should sell his iPod for $194 in 3 years

A recent study asked U. S. Adults to name 10 historic events that occurred during their lifetime that have had the greatest impa
Nadusha1986 [10]

Using the z-distribution, as we are working with a proportion, it is found that the 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all U. S. Adults who would include the 9/11 attacks on their list of 10 historic events is (0.7458, 0.7942). It means that we are 99% sure that the true proportion for all U.S. adults is between these two bounds.

<h3>What is a confidence interval of proportions?</h3>

A confidence interval of proportions is given by:

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which:

  • \pi is the sample proportion.
  • z is the critical value.
  • n is the sample size.

In this problem, the parameters are:

z = 2.575, n = 2000, \pi = 0.77

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.77 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.77(0.23)}{2000}} = 0.7458

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.77 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.77(0.23)}{2000}} = 0.7942

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all U. S. Adults who would include the 9/11 attacks on their list of 10 historic events is (0.7458, 0.7942). It means that we are 99% sure that the true proportion for all U.S. adults is between these two bounds.

One type of insect is 0.0052 meters long. What is the lenght in scientific notation
Ket [755]

Answer:

5.2 × 10^{-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

a number in scientific notation is expressed as

a × 10^{n}

where 1 ≤ a < 10 and n is an integer

write 0.0052 as a number between 1 and 10, that is 5.2

we have to the move the decimal point 3 places to the left to retain it's value

3 places left means n is - 3

0.0052 = 5.2 × 10^{-3}
