144=60%
x(0.6)=144
x=144/0.6
x=240

therefore 240 total visitors visited the art museum today

Prove that the triangle EDF is isosceles. Give reasons for your answer.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

$\triangle EDF$ is isosceles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please have a look at the attached figure.

We are <u>given</u> the following things:

$\angle EDF = y$

$\text{External }\angle DFG = 90 +\dfrac{y}{2}$

Let us try to find out $\angle E$ and $\angle DFE$ . After that we will compare them.

<u>Finding </u> $\angle DFE$ <u>:</u>

Side EG is a straight line so $\angle GFE = 180$

$\angle GFE$ is sum of internal $\angle DFE$ and external $\angle DFG$

$\angle GFE = 180 = \angle DFE + \angle DFG\\\Rightarrow 180 = \angle DFE + (90+\dfrac{y}{2})\\\Rightarrow \angle DFE = 180 - 90 - \dfrac{y}{2}\\\Rightarrow \angle DFE = 90 - \dfrac{y}{2} ....... (1)$

<u>Finding </u> $\angle E$ <u>:</u>

<u>Property of external angle:</u> External angle in a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite internal angles of a triangle.

i.e. external $\angle DFG$ = $\angle E + \angle EDF$

$\Rightarrow 90+\dfrac{y}{2} = \angle E + y\\\Rightarrow \angle E = 90+\dfrac{y}{2} -y\\\Rightarrow \angle E = 90-\dfrac{y}{2} ....... (2)$

Comparing equations (1) and (2):

It can be clearly seen that:

$\angle DFE = \angle E =90-\dfrac{y}{2}$

The two angles of $\triangle EDF$ are equal hence $\triangle EDF$ is isosceles.
