Answer:

(C)The square root of terms separated by addition and subtraction cannot be calculated individually.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Step 7:

\dfrac{\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} =x+\dfrac{b }{2a}

The expression \pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} cannot be written as b \pm\sqrt{4ac}. This is as a result of the fact that square roots of terms separated by addition and subtraction cannot be calculated individually.

Take these examples:

\sqrt{9-4} =\sqrt{5} \\\sqrt{9}-\sqrt{4}=3-2=1\\ $Clearly \sqrt{5}\neq 1\\$Similarly\\\sqrt{9+4} =\sqrt{13} \\\sqrt{9}+\sqrt{4}=3+2=5\\ $Clearly \sqrt{13}\neq 5\\

Given: BCDF is a parallelogram; AB = BF<br> Prove: angleA=angleE
Katen [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

ABCD is a parallelogram.  AB is produced to P, such that AB = BP and PQ is drawn parallel to BC to meet AC produced at Q. Given AB = 8 cm, AD = 5 cm, AC = 10 cm.

→ BC ║ QP →→Given

In Δ ABC and ΔAPQ

∠ABC=∠APQ→→[BC ║ QP , BP is a transversal, so corresponding angles are equal]

∠BAC=∠PAQ→→Reflex angle

Δ ABC ~ ΔAPQ→→(AA similarity criterion]

When triangles are similar, their corresponding angles are equal.

AC=CQ=10 cm, shows that point C is mid point of AQ.

6. In the figure below, measure of angle 1 = 3x + 5, measure of angle 2 = 5x - 18, and measure of angle 3 = 7x-2
Lesechka [4]
See photo for solution and mark me as brainliest if i helped :)

A: although it seems like they are forming a 90º angle, they actually add up to a 89 º angle and therefore are not complementary

B: see photo

What is the circumference of the circle? r=6.4
nignag [31]

Answer:

C = 40.2124

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for circumference is

C = 2*pi*r

where r is the radius.

Substitute what we know.

C = 2 * pi * 6.4

C = 12.8 * pi

If we use substitute pi in, we get

C = 40.2124

PLEASE HELP ME!! And this is about Unit conversions!!! BUT PLEASE HELP AND EXPLAIN THIS TO ME!!
prisoha [69]
Unit conversions will almost always fall into a division or multiplication problem. In this case we are being asked to convert a smaller unit to a larger one, so it will be a division problem.
The standard metric goes on the bottom of the fraction always, so 10/16 or 10÷16 is the problem.
