The odds against Carl beating his friend in a round of golf are 9:7. Find the probability that Carl will lose?

Mathematics

7 0

The ratio 9:7 gives you following statement:

  • Carl will win in 9 cases from 9+7=16;
  • Carl will lose in 7 cases from 16.

Then the probability that Carl will lose is

Pr(\text{Carl will lose})=\dfrac{7}{16}.

Answer: Pr(\text{Carl will lose})=\dfrac{7}{16}.

Use the diagram and the given angle measure to find the other three angle measures
svetoff [14.1K]

By using the diagram and the given angle measure we get that:

if, m∠1 = 143°

then, m∠2 = 37°

         m∠3 = 143°

         m∠4 = 37°

What is angles?

An angle is formed when two straight lines or rays meet at a common endpoint.

What is Properties of Congruence?

  • Reflexive Property:

       For all angles A ,

        ∠A≅∠A .

       An angle is congruent to itself.

  • Symmetric Property:

        For any angles A  and  B ,

        if ∠A≅∠B , then ∠B≅∠A .

         Order of congruence does not matter.

  • Transitive Property:

        For any angles A,B,  and  C ,

        if ∠A≅∠B and ∠B≅∠C , then ∠A≅∠C .

        If two angles are both congruent to a third angle, then the first two        angles are also congruent.

I assume that, this refers to two intersecting lines which form four angles.

  • ∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary angles whose sum is 180°.                                      

         ∠1 + ∠2 = 180°

          143° + ∠2 = 180°

          ∠2 = 180° - 143°

          ∠2 = 37°.

  • ∠1 and ∠3 are vertical angles so do with ∠2 and ∠4.
  • Therefore, it is easy to find their measures because vertical angles are congruent in measure.

         It means that,  ∠1 = ∠3 =143° (properties of congruency)

         and ∠2 = ∠4 =37° (properties of congruency).
