Answer:
8 pieces of paper
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the paper was cut into two, divide the half-pieces by 2 go get the amount of full-sized paper. And since Shanie got 2 more pieces of paper before she started, you subtract 2 from 10, which leaves you with 8 pieces of full-sized paper.
2 - 3 (2x - 5) = 6x + 1
2 -6x +15 = 6x +1 distribute the -3 to (2x -5)
-6x + 17 = 6x + 1 add 2 + 15
16 = 12x add the -6x to the positive 6x and subtract the 1 from 17
1 1/3 = x divide 16/12
Since CM is perpendicular to AB, it follows that ∠1 and <span>∠2 are 90 degrees. Since they both have 90 degree angles, that must mean they are both right triangles.
And since </span>∠3 = ∠4 and ∠1 = ∠2, then it follows that ∠A = <span>∠B. (You can show this by showing that they must add up to 180 degrees.)
So since both right triangles have 3 congruent angles to each, then that makes them similar by AAA (angle angle angle).</span>
