The reason why linear pairs and vertical angles are used to prove lines are parallel is because they area transversal drawn through the parallel lines will form angles on each of the two parallel lines including;

1) Supplementary linear pairs and

2) Vertical angles

3) Alternate angles

Given that either;

a) The corresponding angles that form the linear pairs are congruent

b) The corresponding vertically opposite angles are congruent

c) The corresponding alternate angles are congruent, we have;

The two lines are said to be parallel.

Josie is training for a race. The ratio of

anzhelika [568]

The number of minutes that Josie will take is 80 minutes.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u />

Explanation:

Ratio of the number of minutes to the number of miles = $\frac{24}{3}$

Number of miles = 10

Number of minutes = ?

Let x be the number of minutes

According to the question,

$\frac{24}{3} = \frac{x}{10} \\\\x = \frac{240}{3} \\\\x = 80$

Therefore, the number of minutes that Josie will take is 80 minutes.
