The answer for apex would be true.

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider a parallelogram ABCD in which AB=CD and AD=BC.

Now, from ΔABC and ΔBAD, we have

AD=BC (Opposite sides of parallelogram)

BD=AC (Given)

AB=BA (common)

Thus, by SSS rule of congruency,

ΔABC≅ΔBAD.

Now, by corresponding parts of congruent triangles, we have

∠ABC=∠BAD.

But, we know that ∠ABC and ∠BAD forms the corresponding angle pair, thus ∠ABC+∠BAD=180°

⇒2∠ABC=180

⇒∠ABC=90°

Since they are interior angles of parallel lines AC and BC on the same side of their common secant AB. They are therefore both right, and ABCD is a rectangle.

Hence, the statement If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent, then the parallelogram is a rectangle is true.

The circle is inscribed in Triangle AEC. Which are congruent line segments
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

E-F and E-D

C-B and C-D

Step-by-step explanation:

The circle and triangle are as shown.  The options are:

  • A-B and C-B
  • E-F and E-D
  • E-D and C-D
  • A-F and E-F
  • C-B and C-D

By drawing radius lines from the center of the circle to the tangent points B, D, and F, we can divide the triangle into 3 kites.  Therefore, only segments that are legs of the same kite are congruent.  So the answer must be E-F and E-D, and C-B and C-D.

The weight of a full steel bead tire is approximately 800
AleksAgata [21]

Answer: 1.76

1.54

Step-by-step explanation:

we have to divide 800 by 453.592, and the result is 1.763699... rounding it: 1.76

now we do the same for 700 :

700 divided by 453.592 is 1.5432... so rounding it down: 1.54
