Answer:

AB ║ CD. (Proved)

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached diagram of the triangle.

It is given that Δ ACD is an isosceles triangle.

Therefore, AC = AD and ∠ ACD = ∠ ADC, ⇒ ∠ 3 = ∠ 4 .......... (1)

Again, given that ∠ 1 = ∠ 3 ........... (2)

Now, from equations (1) and (2) we can write, ∠ 1 = ∠ 4

Now, AB and CD are two straight lines and AD is the transverse line and hence, ∠ 1 and ∠ 4 are alternate angles that are equal.

Therefore, AB and CD are parallel straight lines and AB ║ CD. (Proved)

Which is the best first step when solving the following system of equations? x + y = 3. 4 x minus y = 7. Multiply the first equa

Kryger [21]

Answer:

Multiply the first equation by 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x+y=3) which gives

4x+4y=12

and

4x-y=7

Then subtract the two equations and the x variable will be eliminated.

In a triangle , the measure of the first angle is twice the measure of the second angle. The measure of the third angle is 100 m

madam [21]

Answer:

The three unknown angles X, Y , and Z are:

X = 40, Y = 20, and Z = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's name X the measure of the first angle, Y the measure of the second one, and Z that of the third one.

Then we can create the following equations:

X = 2 Y

Z = 100 + Y

and

X + Y + Z = 180

So we use the first equation and the second one to substitute for the variable X and Z in the thrid equation:

2 Y + Y + (100 + Y) = 180

4 Y + 100 = 180

4 Y = 80

Y = 80/4 = 20

Then X = 40, Y = 20, and Z = 120
