Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<ACB = <ECD
These 2 angles are vertically opposite and are equal.
<B = <D
They are both right angles are therefore equal.
The answer is the AA postulate.
A
Note
ASA is a congruence postualate. If S is between two angles that can be shown to be corresponding and equal, then you will have 2 congruent triangles.
SSS if three sides of 1 triangle = 3 sides of a second triangle, then the 2 triangles are congruent. If the the three sides of one triangle are in a ratio with 3 sides of the other triangle, then the triangles could be similar, but that is not the case here.
SAS this is the terminology for congruence as well. We don't know enough to use it for similarity. Some sort of ratio would have to be mentioned to do that.
You are intended to use AA as your answer.
Basically you know that the 2 wholes from both sides cancel out.
Set up the equation, 5/8 = 3/12 + 3/x
3/x = 5/8 - 3/12
Set them to have a common denominator, 3/x = 15/24 - 6/24
3/x = 9/24
Simplify 9/24 and you will get 3/8
3/x = 3/8
Obviously this means x = 8
Outbound Trip 120 miles 60 mph equals 2 hours
Return Trip 120 miles
Total Trip 240 miles at 45 mph average speed
Total time = distance / rate = 240 / 45 = 5.3333333333 Hours
The return trip of 120 miles takes (5.3333333333 Hours MINUS 2 hours)
Return Trip Speed = 120 / 3.333333333 = 36 miles per hour
Y=2/3x-1 is the equation:)
Answer:
the square root of 9/4, 5/3, the square root of 5, and then 2.5
