Answer:

Given statement is TRUE.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that line segment JK and LM are parallel. From picture we see that LK is transversal line.

We know that corresponding angles formed by transversal line are congruent.

Hence ∠JKL = ∠ MLK ...(i)

Now consider triangles JKL and MLK

JK = LM {Given}

∠JKL = ∠ MLK { Using (i) }

KL = KL {common sides}

Hence by SAS property of congruency of triangles, ΔJKL and ΔMLK are congruent.

Hence given statement is TRUE.

Which graph represents the solution to the given system y=-3x-4 and y=3/4x+2

Answer:

See attached picture

Step-by-step explanation:

To graph, use y=mx+b as a guide where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

y=-3x-4

Start at -4 on the y-axis. Plot a point. This is the y-intercept b. From this point count down 3 units and 1 unit to the right. Plot this point and connect.

y=3/4x +2

Start at 2 on the y-axis. Plot a point. This is the y-intercept b. From this point count up 3 units and 4 units to the right. Plot this point and connect.
