According to HL theorem if one leg and hypotenuse of one right triangle are equal to one leg and hypotenuse of other right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
By using this theorem we can set up the system of equations as follows:
x=y+1 ...(1)
2x+3= 3y + 3 ..(2)
By using equation (1) next step is to plug in y+1 for x in equation (2). So,
2 ( y + 1) + 3 = 3y + 3
2y + 2 + 3 = 3y + 3 By using distribution property.
2y + 5 = 3y + 3
2y + 5 - 5 = 3y + 3 - 5 Subtract 5 from each side.
2y = 3y - 2
2y - 3y = -2 Subtract 3y from each sides.
-y = -2
So, y=2
Next step is to plug in y=2 in equation (1) to get the value of x. Hence,
x= 2+1
=3
So, x=3 and y=2 make these triangles congruent.
So, the correct choice is 3. x = 3, y = 2.
The sum of angles of a triangle is 180°.
48 +(6x -28) +2x = 180
8x +20 = 180
8x = 160
x = 20
∠B = (6x -28)° = (6*20 -28)° = 92°
∠C = 2x° = 40°
___
x = 20
∠B = 92°
∠C = 40°
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of polygon = area of square + area of triangle
Square:
Side = 12 cm
Area of square = side *side
= 12 * 12
= 144 sq.cm
Triangle:
base (b) = 12 cm
Height h = 19 cm
= 6 * 19
= 114 sq.cm
Area of polygon = 144 + 114 = 258 square cm
(4x2) + (3x1)=11
I think that's right, can you have a plus sign
Answer:
Triangle
