Prove the Triangle Proportinality Theorem

Mathematics
1 answer:
Xelga [282]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: DE║BC

To prove: \frac{\text{AD}}{\text{DB}}=\frac{\text{AE}}{\text{EC}}

                Statements                           Reasons

1). DE║BC                                   1). Given

2). ∠1 ≅ ∠4, ∠3 ≅ ∠4                2). Corresponding angles theorem

3). ΔADE ~ ΔABC                      3). AA Similarity theorem

4). \frac{\text{AB}}{\text{AD}}=\frac{\text{AC}}{\text{AE}}                                4). Corresponding sides are proportional

5). \frac{\text{AD+DB}}{\text{AD}}=\frac{\text{AE+EC}}{AE}                   5). Segment addition postulate

6). 1+\frac{\text{DB}}{\text{AD}}=1+\frac{\text{EC}}{\text{AE}}                   6). \frac{a+b}{c}=\frac{a}{c}+\frac{b}{c}

7). \frac{\text{DB}}{\text{AD}}=\frac{\text{EC}}{\text{AE}}                                7). Subtract 1 from both sides

8). \frac{\text{AD}}{\text{DB}}=\frac{\text{AE}}{\text{EC}}                               8). Take the reciprocal of both sides

What percent of 7 is 2?
Liono4ka [1.6K]
It is 350% I think, because you are trying to find how many groups of 2 go into 7. So, you have to divide 7 by 2. You get 3.5. 3.5 in percentage form is 350%

If the discriminant of an equation is zero, which of the following is true of the
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if the discriminate is 0, it means that both roots are the same. Not only that, but it also means that the roots are real. I would pick D, but realize that that is the expected answer and the answer could be B, depending on how the person writing the problem thinks about it.
