Answer:

a²  + b²  = c · (e + d) =  c × c = c²

a²  + b²  = c²

Please see attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement,                                                        Reason

ΔADC ~ ΔACB,          Given

AC/AD = BA/AC,        The ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles

b/e = c/b

b² = c·e

ΔBDC ~ ΔBCA,           Given

BC/BA =  BD/BC,        The ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles

a/c = d/a        

a² = c·d

a²  + b²   = c·e + c·d

a²  + b²   = c · (e + d)

e + d = c,                       Addition of segment

a²  + b²   = c × c = c²

Therefore, a²  + b²   = c²

Write 0.0007654 * 10^0 in scientific notation, then state the order of magnitude for it.
Bas_tet [7]

remember that to put a number in scientific notation is necessary to have the first digit of the number different to 0, so

0.0007654\cdot10^0=7.654\cdot10^{-4}

to calculate the order of magnitude, if the number is greater than 3.16, we assume it as a 10, so in this case as 7.654 > 3.16 we get that the order is

10\cdot10^{-4}=10^{-3}

So the order is 10^-3

A line segment is defined by which of the following statements?
kaheart [24]

The only given option that correctly defines a line segment is;

<u><em>Option C; All points between and including two given points.</em></u>

      In geometry in mathematics, a line segment is defined as a part of a line that is bounded by two distinct end points.

Now, let us look at the options;

Option A; This is not correct because a line segment must have 2 distinct endpoints

Option B; This is not correct because a line segment is a part of a line and not a set of points.

Option C; This is correct because it tallies with our definition of line segment.

Option D; This is not correct because a line segment does not extend infinitely.

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = x 2?
Shalnov [3]
Assuming the function is x^2

let y = x^2
interchange x and y
x = y^2
y = sqrt x

so,
sqrt x is the inverse of x^2.
