Answer:

The answer is given below

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram below,Let the line AB and CD be parallel line. Let transversal line EF cut AB at Y and transversal line EF cut CD at Z.

The bisector of ∠BYZ and ∠DZY meet at O. Therefore ∠YZO = ∠DZY/2 and ∠ZYO = ∠BYZ/2

∠BYZ and ∠DZY are interior angles.

∠BYZ + ∠DZY = 180 (sum of consecutive interior angles)

∠BYZ/2 + ∠DZY/2 = 180/2

∠BYZ/2 + ∠DZY/2 = 90°

In ΔOYZ:

∠YZO + ∠ZYO + ∠YOZ = 180 (sum of angles on a straight line).

But  ∠YZO = ∠DZY/2 and ∠ZYO = ∠BYZ/2

∠DZY/2 + ∠BYZ/2 + ∠YOZ = 180

90 + ∠YOZ = 180

∠YOZ = 180 - 90

∠YOZ = 90°

Therefore Angle bisectors of the same side interior angles are perpendicular.

Answer:

x = 44º

Step-by-step explanation:

∡P  = 360 - 112*2 = 136º

∡A = x = 180 - 136º = 44º

a triangle has a perimeter of 10x+2 . two sides have lengths of 5x and 2x+9 what is the length of the 3rd side
stiks02 [169]
Since all the sides add up to 10x+2, that means that 10x-2-<side1>-<side2>=<side3>. Plugging it in, we have 10x-2-5x-(2x+9)=side3, and 5x-2-(2x+9)=side3, then expanding it to 5x-2-2x-9=3x-11=side3

The Hamilton Brush Company issued 2,500 shares of common stock worth $100,000.00 total. What is the par value of each share?
alexandr1967 [171]
What we know here is that all 2500 shares together are worth 100 000 dollars in total. (it's 100 000.00 actually, but we can ignore the part after the point, as it's equal to 0).

This means that each of the shares is valid the whole sum divided by the number of shares, that is:
\frac{100000}{2500} = \frac{1000}{25} =40
(first i divided both denominator and numerator by 100)
So each value is worth 40 dolars.

The football coach bought enough sports mix to make 60 L of a sports drink.
Ilya [14]

the coach makes a total volume of 60 L of a sports drink

we have to find the number of cups he can fill with the drink

1 cup is equivalent to 0.5 pints

so we have to first convert L to pints

1 L = 2.11 pt

then 60 L = 126.6 pt

the volume of sports drink made is 126.6 pt

so 0.5 pt make - 1 cup

then 126.6 pt make - 1 / 0.5 x 126.6 = 253.2 cups

he can make 253 full cups and 0.2 of a cup

answer is 253.2 cups
