<span>Mia is the one who is closer to the treasure chest. A theorem in Triangle Inequalities state that lines opposite of bigger angles have longer sides. In the case of this triangle, the angle opposite of Mia’s path is smaller than the angle opposite of Nigel’s. To confirm the actual distance, the law of sine and law of cosine can be used.</span>

Renee is wanting to join a gym.

WINSTONCH [101]

Pumping iron: 10x+90=0
Fit for life: 15x+50=0

Set them equal to each other. 10x+90=15x+50. Solve for x. Subtract 50 from both sides, get 10x+40=15x, then subtract 10x from both sides, getting 40=5x. Divide 5 from both sides to isolate x, x=8. After 8 months the two gyms will cost the same.

PLEASE HELP! In a word processing document or on a separate piece of paper, use the guide to construct a two column proof proving that triangle RST is congruent to triangle RSQ given that RS ⊥ ST, RS ⊥ SQ, and ∠STR ≅ ∠SQR. Submit the entire proof to your instructor.

Given:
RS ⊥ ST
RS ⊥ SQ
∠STR ≅ ∠SQR

Prove:
△RST ≅ △RSQ
