Given: Quadrilateral DEFG is a parallelogram.

Mathematics
1 answer:
levacccp [35]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that  DEFG is a parallelogram.

Draw the diagonals DF and EG. Place point H where DF and EG intersect.

In triangle HGD and HEF

,

∠HGD ≅ ∠HEF                            (Alternate Interior angle)

∠HDG ≅ ∠HFE                      (Alternate Interior angle)

By the definition of a parallelogram, the opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent.

DG ≅ EF                                      (Opposite sides of parallelogram)

According to ASA postulate, two triangles are congruent if any two angles and their included side are equal in both triangles.

So, by using ASA criterion for congruence we get,

ΔDGH ≅ ΔFEH

Since corresponding sides of congruent triangles are congruent, therefore

GH ≅ EH                      (CPCTC)

DH ≅ FH                     (CPCTC)

Option A is correct.

1. Multiply 36/10*10/10 because the denominator needs to be 100 (because %= 100)

example: 36/10*10/10=360/100

2. now you have your answer :D

Hope this helps!

What is the area of this shape
Tema [17]
This is the area of a trapezoid and the formula for that is:
.5(h)(b1 + b2) where h is height and b1 and b2 are the base length or the length of the parallel sides.  therefore, our area is:
.5(16)(6+12)
8(18)
144
if you're wondering why the area formula works, construct another trapezoid but this time upside-down.  now flip it along it's height axis so you can align one of the side lengths of the 2 trapezoids and you have a parallelogram.
the base of this parallelogram is b1+b2 of the original trapezoid and the height still remains h so the area of this parallelogram is (h)(b1 + b2).  however, we want to find the area of the trapezoid but we find that the parallelogram is twice the area of our trapezoid so the area of the trapezoid is half the area of the parallelogram.  so area = .5(h)(b1 + b2).

What values from the set {10, 11, 12, 13} that makes the equation 2(× - 5) = 12 true is, , 10, 11, 12 or 13?
olasank [31]

Answer: The value necessary from the set to make the equation true was 11.


Step-by-step explanation:

Process of elimination:

1. 2([10]-5)

= 2(5)

= 10, not 12.

2. 2([11]-5)

= 2(6)

= 12; the answer we need.

We substituted x for 11, and then the equation worked; so therefore the value we needed from the set was 11.
