Answer:
The correct option is;
C. 3. ∠BDE ≅∠BAC, Corresponding Angles Postulate 4. ∠B ≅ ∠B Reflexive Property of Equality
Step-by-step explanation:
The two column proof can be written as follows;
Statement, Reason
1. , Given
2. is a transversal , Conclusion from statement 1.
We note that ∠BDE and ∠BAC are on the same side of the transversal relative to the parallel lines, and are therefore, corresponding angles.
Therefore, we have;
3. ∠BDE ≅∠BAC, Corresponding Angles Postulate
Also
4. ∠B ≅ ∠B, Reflexive Property of Equality
In the two triangles, ΔABC and ΔDBE, we have ∠BDE ≅∠BAC and ∠B ≅ ∠B,
From ∠BDE + ∠B + ∠BED = 180°
∠BAC + ∠B + ∠BCA = 180°
Therefore, ∠BED = ∠BCA Substitution property of equality
Which gives;
5, ΔABC ~ ΔDBE, Angle Angle Similarity Postulate
6. BD/BA = BE/BC, Converse of the Side-Side-Side Similarity Theorem
For small angles, x, in radians,
tan(x) ≈ sin(x) = x
Use this to create an approximate diagram for the problem as shown in the figure below.
The actual deflected shape is parabolic, but it is approximated by an isosceles triangle with small equal angles.
The extend length is 3 km + 12 cm, which is
3000 + 0.12 = 3000.12 m
Half of the extended length is 1500.06 m
Let h+ the rise of the center of the rail above ground.
From the Pythagorean theorem, obtain
h² + 1500² = 1500.6²
h² = 1500.06² - 1500² = 180.004
h = 13.4 m, which is about 0.9% of the original length.
Answer: 13.4 m
