Answer:

This is proved by ASA congruent rule.

 Step-by-step explanation:

Given KLMN is a parallelogram, and that the bisectors of ∠K and ∠L meet at A. we have to prove that A is equidistant from LM and KN i.e we have to prove that AP=AQ

we know that the diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other therefore the the bisectors of ∠K and ∠L must be the diagonals.

In ΔAPN and ΔAQL

∠PNA=∠ALQ    (∵alternate angles)  

AN=AL   (∵diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other)

∠PAN=∠LAQ      (∵vertically opposite angles)

∴ By ASA rule ΔAPN ≅ ΔAQL

Hence, by CPCT  i.e Corresponding parts of congruent triangles PA=AQ

Hence, A is equidistant from LM and KN.

Ving Advanced Linear Equations: Practice
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

In the first week, Micah bought 11 gallons of gas.

In the second week, Micah bought 8 gallons of gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

First week

x gallons of gas at $2.39 per gallon

x gallons = $2.39x

Second week

3 fewer gallons of gas than the first week at $2.49 per gallon

x - 3 gallons = $2.49(x-3)

Total spent = $46.21

$2.39x + $2.49(x-3) = $46.21

2.39x + 2.49x - 7.47 = 46.21

4.88x - 7.47 = 46.21

Add 7.47 to both sides

4.88x - 7.47 + 7.47 = 46.21 + 7.47

4.88x = 53.68

Divide both sides by 4.88

x = 53.68/4.88

= 11

x = 11

First week = x = 11 gallons

Second week

= x - 3

= 11-3

= 8 gallons

Therefore,

In the first week, Micah bought 11 gallons of gas.

In the second week, Micah bought 8 gallons of gas.

Is this right? someone please help :)
kherson [118]

Answer:

v = m/d

Step-by-step explanation:

d = m/v

Multiply each side by v

d*v = m/v * v

dv = m

Now divide each side by d

dv/d = m/d

v = m/d
