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.

A rowing team rowed 90 miles while going with the current in the same amount of time as it took to row 10 miles going against th
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

The speed in still water is 5 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

distance with current = 90 miles

distance against current = 10 miles

speed in still water = s

speed of current = 4 mph

speed with current = s + 4

speed against current = s - 4

time = t

speed = distance/time

distance = speed * time

With current:

90 = (s + 4) * t

Against the current:

10 = (s - 4) * t

We have a system of equations:

90 = (s + 4) * t

10 = (s - 4) * t

90 = ts + 4t

10 = ts - 4t

Subtract the second equation from the first equation.

80 = 8t

10 = t

t = 10

10 = t(s - 4)

10 = 10(s - 4)

1 = s - 4

s = 5

Answer: The speed in still water is 5 miles per hour.

Figure T is similar to figure W which answer is closest to the length of side XY
beks73 [17]
As they are similar triangles, one is simply going to be bigger than the other, meaning that if triangle T’s side QS is = 9 and triangle W’s corresponding side ZX is =6.5. When dividing 9 by 6.5, it is obvious that triangle W is 0.72 smaller than triangle T. All you then have to do to calculate length of side XY is times side QR on triangle T -cause it’s the corresponding side of these two triangles- by 0.72, and you’ll have your answer of XY= 8.125 :)
