Answer:

Consider the triangle ABC in the attached file.

Given: An isosceles triangle ABC.  

To Prove: Base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent.

Construction: Draw AM perpendicular to BC.

Proof: To prove the base angles  of an isosceles triangle are congruent, we first need to prove triangle ABM is congruent to triangle ACM.

In \Delta {ABM} and \Delta {ACM}

AB=AC\:\:\left [ \because \Delta ABC\: \text {is an isosceles triangle }\right ]

\angle \text{AMB}=\angle \text{AMC} \:\left [ \text{Each 90}\right ]

\text{AM}=\text{AM}\:\:\left [\text{Common} \right ]

So, \Delta \text{ABM}\cong \Delta \text{ACM} by AAS criteria.

Therefore,  \angle \text{ABM}=\angle \text{ACM} by CPCT.

Hence, the base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent.

EASY PLS HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLY If -11 + N = -11, then N is the _____.
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

SteIf -11 + N = -11 then N is the additive inverse because if we do process of elimination (POE) we can cross out C and D because this is a addition problem not a multiplication, and we know its not B because that's like 99 + 0 = 99 set, but instead its A because its just like  -8 + 8 = 0. (If this was not a multiple choice question then tell me)

SHOW ME HOW TO SOLVE THIS PLSS&gt;&gt;&gt; The price of a tennis racquet is inversely proportional to its weight. If a 20 oz. ra
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

$24

Step-by-step explanation:

Inversely proportional means that the two variables (price and weight in this case) will always have the same product. Therefore, we can write the following equation:

25 * x = 20 * 30 (where x is the price of a 25 oz. racquet)

25x = 600

x = $24

Find the value of x when<br>2x =100.​
Sophie [7]

<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

2 ( x ) = 100

Step 1: Divide both sides by 2.

2 x / 2 = 100 / 2

x = 50

Answer:

x = 50
