Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of Niamah to Jack is 2:5, that means that for every 2 pencils that N gets, J gets 5. If there are a total of 21 pencils, then

2x + 5x = 21 and

7x = 21 so

x = 3.

That means that N gets 2(3) which is 6, and J gets 5(3) which is 15. Notice that 6:15 is the same ratio as 2:5 when it is reduced.

DC ⊥ AD                    Given

∠ADC = 90°               Definition of perpendicular lines

BC ⊥ AB                    Given

∠ABC = 90°               Definition of perpendicular lines

∠ADC ≅ ∠ABC          Right angles are congruent

AC = AC                     Reflexive property
