Answer:

About 6 inches tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

One book has a thickness of 2 $\frac{3}{7}$ inches.

Another book has a thickness of 3.56 inches

Converting 2 $\frac{3}{7}$ inches to decimals will give; 2.4285714286 inches

If the books are stacked together, they become 2.4285714286 inches + 3.56 inches = 5.988571429 inches tall or about 6 inches tall (answer rounded up to nearest whole number).

State whether the triangles could be proven congruent, if possible, by SSS or SAS.

Helen [10]

Answer:

1. SSS

2. SAS

3. SAS

4. SSS

5. SAS

6. SAS

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Side FY ≅ Side CW Given

Side FP ≅ Side CM Given

Side YP ≅ Side MW Given

∴ΔMCW ≅ ΔFPY by the Side-Side-Side (SSS) rule of congruency

2) ∠CBD ≅ ∠BCA given that both are alternate interior angles

Side EB ≅ Side EC and Side DB ≅ Side CA Given

ΔBED ≅ ΔAEC by Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency

3. ∠SVU ≅ ∠SVT Given

Side SV ≅ Side SV by reflexive property

Side VT ≅ Side VU Given

∴ ΔVSU ≅ ΔVST by Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency

4. Side MN ≅ Side QP Given

Side MQ ≅ Side NP Given

Side NQ ≅ Side NQ by reflexive property

∴ΔQNM ≅ ΔQNP by the Side-Side-Side (SSS) rule of congruency

5. Indirect proof

Side GL ≅ Side HL Given

Side GJ ≅ Side HK Given

∠JLG ≅ ∠HLK vertically opposite angles

By sine rule

GJ/sin(∠JLG) = GL/n(∠GJL)

Similarly

HK/sin(∠HLK) = HL/n(∠HKL)

∴ ∠GJL ≅ ∠HKL

∴ ∠LGJ ≅ ∠LHK third angle of two triangles given the other two angles are congruent

∴ΔQNM ≅ ΔQNP by the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency

6. ∠XZY ≅ ∠XZW Supplementary ∠s with ∠XZY = 90°

Side XZ ≅ Side XZ by reflexive property

Side ZW ≅ Side ZY Given

∴ ΔXYZ ≅ ΔXWZ by Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency.
