Given that the point (12,-5) which takes the form (x,y), This implies that:
opposite=-5
adjacent=12
thus using using Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse will be:
c^2=a^2+b^2
plugging the values we obtain:
c^2=(12)^2+(-5)^2
c^2=144+15
c^2=169
thus
c=13
but
cos θ=adjacent/ hypotenuse
therefore:
cos θ=12/13

Answer is option . D

Given: mAngleEDF = 120°; mAngleADB = (3x)°; mAngleBDC = (2x)° Prove: x = 24 3 lines are shown. A line with points E, D, C inters
N76 [4]

Answer:

" Vertical angles are congruent " ⇒ 2nd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* <em>Look to the attached figure </em>

- There are three lines intersected at point D

- We need to find the missing in step 3

∵ Line FA intersects line EC at point D

- The angles formed when two lines cross each other are called

 vertical angles

- Vertical angles are congruent (vertical angles theorem)

∴ ∠ADC and ∠FDE are vertical angles

∵ Vertical angles are congruent

∴ ∠EDF ≅ ∠ADC

∴ m∠EDF ≅ m∠ADC

∵ m∠EDF = 120° ⇒ given

∵ m∠ADC = m∠ADB + m∠BDC

∴ m∠ADB + m∠BDC = 120°

∵ m∠ADB = (3x)° ⇒ given

∵ m∠BDC = (2x)° ⇒ given

∴ 3x + 2x = 120 ⇒ add like terms

∴ 5x = 120 ⇒ divide both sides by 5

∴ x = 24

Column (1)                                                     Column (2)

m∠EDF = 120°                                               given

m∠ADB = 3 x                                                 given

m∠BDC = 2 x                                                 given

∠EDF and ∠ADC are vertical angles           defin. of vert. ∠s

∠EDF is congruent to ∠ADC                        vertical angles are      

                                                                        congruent  

m∠ADC = m∠ADB + m∠BDC                        angle add. post.

m∠EDF = m∠ADC                                          defin. of cong.

m∠EDF = m∠ADB + m∠BDC                         substitution

120° = 3 x + 2 x                                               substitution

120 = 5 x                                                         addition

x = 24                                                              division  

∴ The missing reason is " vertical angles are congruent "

- From the explanation above ∠ADC and ∠FDE are vertical

 angles then they are congruent according to vertical angle

Answer:

If the quetion is how much money I earned on both days it would be 56.25

Step-by-step explanation:

4hours times 6.25 an hour = 25 now we do 5hours times 6.25 an hour = 31.25 so add them to get 56.25
