Answer:

a) yes, by AA criterion

Step-by-step explanation:

If two angles in a triangle are congruent to two angles in another triangle then the two triangles are congruent. ∠ABE ≈ ∠EDC since they have the same measure. ∠BEA ≈ ∠CED since they are vertical angles. Since two angles are congruent, then you can conclude yes, by AA criterion

Answer:

No, not possible to tell that  the two triangles, ΔABE and ΔEDC are similar

Step-by-step explanation:

Similarity criterion:

1. AAA similarity : two triangles are similar if all three angles in the first

 triangle equal the corresponding angle in the second triangle  

2. AA similarity : If two angles of one triangle are equal to the corresponding angles of the other triangle, then the two triangles are similar.

3. SSS similarity : If the corresponding sides of the two triangles are

proportional, then the two triangles are similar.

4. SAS similarity : In two triangles, if two sets of corresponding sides  

are proportional and the included angles are equal then the two  

triangles are similar.

Now in the two triangles ABE and EDC :

∠ABE = 100°

∠EDC = 100°

∠ABE =  ∠EDC

But only one congruent angle  does not  not prove that the two triangles are similar.

Hence, NOTHING CAN BE SAID ABOUT THE nature of the triangle.

△DEF is shown below.<br><br>Triangle DEF<br><br>What is m∠DEF?​
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

m∠DEF = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

∠DEG = ∠GEF

3y + 4 = 5y - 10

subtract 4 from both sides

3y = 5y - 14

subtract 5y from both sides

-2y = -14

divide by -2

y = 7

Add 7 into the equations:

3y + 4 + 5y - 10

3(7) + 4 + 5(7) - 10

21 + 4 + 35 - 10

25 + 25

50

Simplify<br> x2 + 6 − (3x2 − 2x − 5)
Karolina [17]

Answer:

- 2x² + 2x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 6 - (3x² - 2x - 5) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1

= x² + 6 - 3x² + 2x + 5 ← collect like terms

= - 2x² + 2x + 11

Angle BAC measures 56. What is the measure of angle BDC?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer: Like the angles BAC (56°) and BDC has the same arc BC in the circumference, these angles must be congruent, then angle BDC must be equal to 56°.

KiRa [710]
Possible procedures:

1). peanut, peanut
2). peanut, cashew
3). peanut, pecan
4). cashew, peanut
5). cashew, cashew
6). cashew, pecan
7). pecan, peanut
8). pecan, cashew
9). pecan, pecan.

Nine (9) possible procedures.
But ...
(2) and (4) produce the same final result.
(3) and (7) produce the same final result.
(6) and (8) produce the same final result.

So there are only <em><u>six (6)</u></em> possible different outcomes.
