A straight line is 180°.
The sum of all the angles in a triangle is also 180°.
Let the missing angle be x°.
For the straight line:
x + 2x²+ 3x+ 6 = 180
x = 180 - (2x² + 3x + 6)
x = 180 - 2x² - 3x - 6
x = 174 - 2x² - 3x
For the missing angle in the triangle:
(174 - 2x² - 3x) + 8x + 3x² - 6x = 180
174 - 2x² - 3x + 8x + 3x² - 6x = 180
174 + x² - x = 180
x² - x + 174 - 180 = 0
x² - x - 6 = 0
(x + 2)(x - 3) = 0
x + 2 = 0 or x - 3 = 0
x = -2 or x = 3
The answer is x = -2 or x = 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<ACB = <ECD
These 2 angles are vertically opposite and are equal.
<B = <D
They are both right angles are therefore equal.
The answer is the AA postulate.
A
Note
ASA is a congruence postualate. If S is between two angles that can be shown to be corresponding and equal, then you will have 2 congruent triangles.
SSS if three sides of 1 triangle = 3 sides of a second triangle, then the 2 triangles are congruent. If the the three sides of one triangle are in a ratio with 3 sides of the other triangle, then the triangles could be similar, but that is not the case here.
SAS this is the terminology for congruence as well. We don't know enough to use it for similarity. Some sort of ratio would have to be mentioned to do that.
You are intended to use AA as your answer.
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it's at the same time of the day, the ratio between the height of the person and the shadow they cast will stay the same. So the man's height to shadow ratio is 6:8 = 3:4. The son's height to shadow ratio would be the same so x:4 = 3:4 therefore his height is 3 feet.
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
No, because 8 - 1 ≠ 27 - 8. So, there is no common difference which is needed in order for the sequence to be arithmetic
