Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since r is not given, the length we can be find using the Law of Sines using is length r.

The Sine formula or the Law of Sines

q/Sine Q = r/Sine R

q=9.5

r is the unknown

9.5/Sine 18° = r/ Sine 135°

Select all angles that MUST be supplementary to 9

erastova [34]

Answer:

Angles supplementary to angle 9 = Angle <u>10</u>, <u>7</u>, <u>5</u>, <u>1</u>, <u>4</u>, <u>3</u>, <u>15</u>, <u>12</u>, <u>24</u>, <u>22</u>, <u>20</u>, <u>19</u>, and angle <u>16</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the vertical, and corresponding angles theorem to find congruent angles.

Look for linear pairs (adjacent(next to each other, or share a side) angles that make 180° or a straight angle) from the corresponding angles.

Something is supplementary if it adds to 180 degrees.

The vertical angles theorem states that pairs of opposite angles made by interesecting lines are congruent.

The corresponding angles theorem states that corresponding or angles relative to the same position are congruent if the transversal crosses at least 2 parallel lines.

Which set of numbers could represent the lengths of the sides of a right triangle?

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The first set: 8, 15, and 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the pythagorean theorem, a triangle is a right triangle if and only if

$\text{longest side}^2 = \text{first shorter side}^2 + \text{second shorter side}^2$ .

In this case,

$\text{longest side}^2 = 17^2 = 289$ .

$\begin{aligned}&\text{first shortest side}^2 + \text{second shortest side}^2 \\ &= 8^2 + 15^2\\ &=64 + 225 = 289 \end{aligned}$ .

In other words, indeed $\text{hypotenuse}^2 = \text{first leg}^2 + \text{second leg}^2$ . Hence, 8, 15, 17 does form a right triangle.

Similarly, check the other pairs. Keep in mind that the square of the longest side should be equal to the sum of the square of the two

Factor out the common factor $2$ to simplify the calculations.

$\text{longest side}^2 = 20^2 = 400$

$\begin{aligned}&\text{first shortest side}^2 + \text{second shortest side}^2 \\ &= 10^2 + 15^2\\ &=100 + 225 = 325 \end{aligned}$ .

$\text{longest side}^2 \ne \text{first shorter side}^2 + \text{second shorter side}^2$ .

Hence, by the pythagorean theorem, these three sides don't form a right triangle.

$\text{longest side}^2 = (2\times 11)^2 = 2^2 \times 121$ .

$\begin{aligned}&\text{first shortest side}^2 + \text{second shortest side}^2 \\ &= (2 \times 6)^2 + (2 \times 9)^2\\ &=2^2 \times(36 + 81) = 2^2 \times 117 \end{aligned}$ .

$\text{longest side}^2 \ne \text{first shorter side}^2 + \text{second shorter side}^2$ .

Hence, by the pythagorean theorem, these three sides don't form a right triangle.

$\text{longest side}^2 = 11^2 = 121$ .

<h3> $\begin{aligned}&\text{first shortest side}^2 + \text{second shortest side}^2 \\ &= 7^2 + 9^2\\ &=49+ 81 = 130 \end{aligned}$ .</h3>

$\text{longest side}^2 \ne \text{first shorter side}^2 + \text{second shorter side}^2$ .

Hence, by the pythagorean theorem, these three sides don't form a right triangle.
