A city grid of Anytown, USA is shown on the grid below. The fire department is represented by quadrilateral RSTU. Another fire d

epartment is opening in a different part of the city to maximize fire protection. The size of the new department's property must be congruent to the older department. Vertices A and B are plotted on the grid below to represent two vertices of the new fire department quadrilateral ABCD:
What could be the ordered pairs representing vertices C and D of quadrilateral ABCD so that the new fire department is congruent to the old fire department?

The original fire department is 3  units wide and 4 units long.

The new fire deportment is also 3 units wide, so to be congruent, it needs to be 4 units long.


Point C would be (1,-5)

Point D would be (4,-5)


See attached picture.

Answer:

Given: In triangle ABC and triangle DBE where DE is parallel to AC.

In ΔABC and ΔDBE

DE || AC   [Given]

As we know, a line that cuts across two or more parallel lines.  In the given figure, the line AB is a transversal.

Line segment  AB is transversal that intersects two parallel lines.  [Conclusion from statement 1.]

Corresponding angles theorem: two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the  corresponding angles are congruent.

then;

\angle BDE \cong \angle BAC  and

\angle BEC \cong \angle BCA

Reflexive property of equality states that if angles in geometric figures can be congruent to themselves.

by Reflexive property of equality:

\angle B \cong \angle B  

By AAA (Angle Angle Angle) similarity postulates states that all three pairs of corresponding angles are the same then, the triangles are similar

therefore, by AAA similarity postulates theorem

\triangle ABC \sim \triangle DBE

Similar triangles are triangles with equal corresponding angles and proportionate side.

then, we have;

\frac{BD}{BA}                  [By definition of similar triangles]

therefore, the missing statement and the reasons are

Statement                                                                   Reason

3.\angle BDE \cong \angle BAC      Corresponding angles theorem

and  \angle BEC \cong \angle BCA        

5. \triangle ABC \sim \triangle DBE   AAA similarity postulates    

6. BD over BA                                                    Definition of similar triangle

Which of the following is the solution set to the inequality −25x+14&gt;20? Select one: A. x &lt; -64 B. x &gt; -64 C. x &lt; -1
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

x< -0.24

Step-by-step explanation:

So this is going to sound stupid, but I got x< -0.24 which is just not an option, but this is how I got it...

-25x+14>20

subtract 14 from each side

-25x>6

divide each side by -25

x< -0.24

I switch the way the sign was facing bc I divided by a negative.

Now I know that this must be wrong, but it makes the most sense because I am pretty sure I did all of the math right. Sorry this probably didnt help , but I did a lot of work to try and get the right answer, so Im not putting that work to waste
