Which theorem or postulate proves the two triangles are similar?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Andre45 [30]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The corresponding pair of sides are in the same ratio.

Step-by-step explanation:

For two triangles to be similar, the theorem that is required is the corresponding sides of the two triangles are in the same ratio.

Now, see the diagram of two triangles given with the question.

The ratios of the corresponding sides are \frac{20}{16} = \frac{19}{\frac{76}{5} } = \frac{5}{4}

If two pairs corresponding sides are in 5 : 4 ratio, then the third pair of corresponding sides will also be in 5 : 4 ratio.

Therefore, the two triangles are similar. (Answer)

There are some hens and some sheeps are in a farm,total number of animals are 10 and total number of their legs are 32 1.Find nu
Serhud [2]

Answer: The number of hens are 4 and number of sheeps are 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total animals = 10

Total number of legs = 32

Let number of hens = h  and number of sheep = s

Thus h+s = 10    (1)

Now each hen has two legs and each sheep has 4 legs :2\times h+4\times s=32   (2)

Solving for h and s we get:

s = 6 , h =4

Thus number of hens are 4 and number of sheeps are 6

What is 10 + (-6) equal to
Savatey [412]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

When adding a positive to a negative, you must increase to 0, then continue.

For example, -6 + 10

go up 6 points, until you get to 0. So 10 - 6 = 4. Then you go up 4 from zero, so your answer is 4.
