How many facts does it take to make triangles congruent? Only 3 if they are the right three and the parts are  located in the right place.

SAS where 2 sides make up one of the three angles of a triangle. The angle must between the 2 sides.

ASA where the S (side) is common to both the two given angles.

SSS where all three sides of one triangle are the same as all three sides of a second triangle. This one is my favorite. It has no exceptions.

In one very special case, you need only 2 facts, but that case is very special and it really is one of the cases above.

If you are working with a right angle triangle, you can get away with being given the hypotenuse and one of the sides. So you only need 2 facts. It is called the HL theorem. But that is a special case of SSS. The third side can be found from a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

You can also use the two sides making up the right angle but that is a special case of SAS.

Answer

There 6 parts to every triangle: 3 sides and 3 angles. If you show congruency, using any of the 3 facts above, you can conclude that the other 3 parts of the triangle are congruent as well as the three that you have.

Geometry is built on that wonderfully simple premise and it is your introduction to what makes a proof. So it's important that you understand how proving parts of congruent triangles work.

Find the inequality represented by the graph.
DaniilM [7]

From the graph,

y =  \frac{1}{2}x  + 2

But this one is inequality so you gotta remember this:

When y > x/2+2

- The shade/region is above the graph itself.

When y < x/2+2

- The shade/region is below the graph.

Therefore, the inequality as shown in the picture is

y >  \frac{1}{2} x + 2

3 ( x ) + 55 = 85

Answer To Solving Y:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3x + 55 = 85

Step 1: Subtract 55 from both sides.

3x + 55 − 55 = 85 − 55

3x = 30

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.

3x / 3 = 30 / 3

x = 10

2 ( y ) - 5 = 95

Answer:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

2y − 5 = 95

Step 1: Add 5 to both sides.

2y − 5 + 5 = 95 + 5

2y = 100

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

2y / 2 = 100 / 2

y = 50
