in parallelogram ABCD, AC is diagonal, the measure <ABC is 40°, and the measure of <ACD IS 57°. what is the measure of &lt

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer: $\angle CAD = 83^\circ$ Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we use properties of parallelogram and angle sum property of a triangle.

In parallelogram ABCD

$\angle ABC=40^\circ$

As, we know that opposite angles of parallelogram are equal

Therefore,

$\angle ABC =\angle ADC =40^\circ$

Now, in triangle ADC

We know that sum of all the angles of a triangle is $=180^\circ$

$\angle ACD +\angle ADC +\angle DAC =180^\circ$

$57^\circ +40^\circ +\angle DAC =180^\circ$

$97^\circ + \angle DAC = 180^\circ$

Subtracting 97 from both sides we get

$\angle DAC = 180^\circ - 97^\circ$

$\angle DAC = 83^\circ$

Measure of $\angle CAD = 83^\circ$

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (-3, -5) and (-1, - 6)?

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope using the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= ( -6 - -5)/( -1 - -3)

= ( -6+5)/( -1+3)

=-1/ 2

yulyashka [42]

Answer:The total amount of money that the school will spend for tickets is $9900

Step-by-step explanation:

Tickets to a baseball game are 20 dollars for an adult and 15 dollars for a student. A school bus tickets for 45 adults and 600 students. This means that the total amount spent by the school on adult tickets is 20 × 45 = $900

The total amount spent by the school on students tickets is 15 × 600 = $9000

The total amount of money that the school will spend for tickets will be the sum of the amount spent on adult tickets and student tickets. It becomes

900 + 9000 = $9900
