Usually you prove the medians are concurrent way before you get the Ceva's Theorem.  But we do the problem as given.  Next time try to include the whole problem in the photo.

FA=FB, BE=EC, CG=GA

Answer: C. Definition of median

The medians go to the midpoints of the sides, so we have congruent segments from the foot.

FA/FB=1, BE/EC=1, CG/GA=1

Answer: A. Division of equal segment lengths yields 1

This one is cut off so we can't read the full justification, but we have equal segments so their ratio is 1.

(FA/FB)(BE/EC)(CG/GA)=1

Answer: E. Substitution property

Again the justification is cut off, but we have three things equal to 1, when we multiply them together we still get 1.

Medians are Concurrent

Answer: B. Ceva's Theorem

This is really the converse of Ceva's Theorem; we have the required ratio product equal to 1, so we know the medians are concurrent.   Technically they might be parallel (which is concurrent in the projective sense, meeting at infinity).  So we really need to show they're not parallel as well, which they can't be, but they left that part out.

I don't like this proof very much.

Which multiplication equation is related to the division equation one ninth ÷ 5 = ___?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

one forty fifth times five equals one ninth

Step-by-step explanation:

In division, the number being divided is the dividend or numerator, the denominator is the number we use to do the division while the result is the quotient and there may be a reminder.

For example, if

a/b = c

then

a = b * c

hence

1/9  ÷ 5

= 1/9 * 1/5

= 1/45

This means that

1/45 * 5 = 1/9

Hence the related multiplication equation related to the division equation one ninth ÷ 5 is one forty fifth times five equals one ninth

Jasmine says that -n is always less than zero is that true explain with example
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Given: Let x and y be positive integers

Explain why it is incorrect to claim that x/√y is always irrational

Example: Let x = 5, and y = 9.

5/√9=5/3=1.6

Given: 0<A<B

Explain why it is correct to claim that A/B<B/A is true,

It is shown that A/B will always be < 1, and B/A will always be > 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational numbers are numbers that can be written as a fraction of integers. To explain why this statement is incorrect, consider using a perfect square. A perfect square is a number that can be expressed as the product of two equal integers (9, 16, 25…), where y is the perfect square.
