Answer:

Cost without vat is 1,368.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the cost of the iron without the vat.

From the question , we can see that 15% VAT brought the cost to 1610.

This means that the original cost without vat is 100% -15% = 85% of the total

Thus;

85/100 * 1610 is the cost without vat

And that is;

136850/100 = 1,368.5

AB is congruent to DE because segment DE was constructed so that DE = AB. BC is congruent to EF because segment EF was construct
Alex Ar [27]

DE = AB, EF = BC and AC = DF, hence triangle ABC is congruent to triangle DEF.

<h3>Congruent shape</h3>

Two shapes are said to be congruent if they have the same shape, all their corresponding angles and sides are congruent to one another.

Given that DE = AB and BC = EF.

In right triangle DEF, using Pythagoras:

DF² = DE² + EF²

Also, In right triangle ABC, using Pythagoras:

AC² = AB² + BC²

But DE = AB and EF = BC, hence:

AC² = DE² + EF²

AC² = DF²

Taking square root of both sides, hence:

AC = DF

Since DE = AB, EF = BC and AC = DF, hence triangle ABC is congruent to triangle DEF.

T is between S and U ST = X-6, SU = 10 units, and TU = 2x - 8. Find the length of ST.
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

<h2>B.  ST = 2</h2><h2 />

Step-by-step explanation:

|<--------------  10 --------------------->|

S-------------------T--------------------U

            X-6              2X - 8

FIND: ST

SOLUTION:

ST + TU = SU

x - 6 + 2x - 8 = 10

combine like terms:

3x - x = 10 + 8 + 6

x = 24/3

x = 8

plugin the value of x= 8 into the ST = x - 6

ST = x - 6

ST = 8 - 6

ST = 2

proof:

x - 6 + 2x - 8 = 10

8 - 6 + 2(8) - 8 = 10

10 = 10 ---OK
