I need help to fill in the blanks.. please

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Part a) alternate interior angles theorem

Part b) vertical angles theorem

Part c) AA Similarity theorem

Part d) triangle ABC is similar with triangle EDC

Part e) The length side b is 3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) we know that

The Alternate Interior Angles Theorem states that, when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal , the resulting alternate interior angles are congruent. Each pair of these angles are inside the parallel lines, and on opposite sides of the transversal.

In this problem

The transversal is the segment BD and the parallel lines are AB and DE

so

$m\angle 1=m\angle 4$ ----> by alternate interior angles theorem

Part b) we know that

Vertical Angles Theorem states that vertical angles are congruent. Vertical Angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines cross.

In this problem, the two lines that cross are BD and AE

so

$m\angle 5=m\angle 6$ ----> by vertical angles theorem

Part c) we know that

The AA Similarity Theorem states: If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two corresponding angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar

In this problem

triangle ABC is similar with triangle EDC by AA Similarity Theorem

Because

$m\angle 1=m\angle 4$ ----> by alternate interior angles

$m\angle 5=m\angle 6$ ----> by vertical angles

Part d) triangle ABC is similar with triangle EDC by AA Similarity Theorem

see the explanation Part c)

Part e) Find the length of side b

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

we have that

triangle ABC is similar with triangle EDC

so

Applying proportion

$\frac{BC}{DC}=\frac{AC}{EC}$

substitute the given values

$\frac{2}{DC}=\frac{5}{7.5}$

solve for DC

$DC=2(7.5)/5=3\ cm$

therefore

The length side b is 3 cm

Solve each equation l x+11 l=8 l 3x-2 l=16

kobusy [5.1K]

|x + 11| = 8
x + 11 = 8
 -11 -11
 x = -3

|3x - 2| = 16
3x + 2 = 16
 -2 -2
 3x = 14
 3 3
 x = 4 2/3

The Quadratic equation y=0.5(x-1)(x-n) has an x - intercept at (1,0) and a vertex at (-2,4.5). what is the value of n A -5 B -2

andre [41]

Step-by-step explanation:

the point being that a quadratic equation has 2 x-intercepts (or solutions of x for y = 0).

the advantage of this nice form the equation is written in is, that we see immediately both conditions, when y can be 0 : one of the bracket expressions must be 0.

so, the point (1, 0) covers (x-1).

we get the solution for (x-n), when we consider that such a quadratic function is simply a parabola and is symmetric around its vertex point.

the x value of the vertex (-2) tells us, that it is 3 units on the left side of the (1, 0) x-intercept point.

due to the symmetry of the curve the second x-intercept point must be even further to the left with additional 3 units distance in x direction.

so, -2 - 3 = -5

and A is the correct answer option.

The temperatures at several times of the day are shown in the coordinate plane below. The x-axis represents the number of hours

Drupady [299]

Question:

The temperatures at several times of the day are shown in the coordinate plane below. The x-axis represents the number of hours before or afternoon. For example, -1 would represent 11 a.m. The y-axis represents the temperature in degrees Celsius.At 5 p.m, the temperature is halfway between the temperature at 2 p.m. and the temperature at 8 p.m.

What coordinates represent the temperature at 5 p.m.?

Answer:

(5, 2)

=> At 5pm, the temperature is at 2⁰C

Step-by-step Explanation:

Coordinates of any point on a cartesian/coordinate plane is represented by (x, y). Where x is the number at the point on z-axis, while y is the number at the same point on the y-axis.

From the diagram of the coordinate plane attached below, we can simply find out what coordinates represent the temperature at 5pm.

==> Given that the temperature at 5pm is half way between the temperature at 2pm (y=7) and temperature at 8pm (y=-3), the point that is being referred to = [7+(-3)] ÷ 2 = ⁴/2 = 2 (i.e. 2 on the y axis representing temperature)

*The position of the point is indicated in the second picture that is attached below.

At that position of the point, we have 2 as the coordinate for the y axis representing temperature, and at that same position, we have 5 on the x-axis representing the number of hours.

Therefore, coordinates of the point (x, y) representing 5p.m = (5, 2)

==> At 5pm, the temperature is at 2⁰C
