Make a conjunction about the sum of interior angles of quadrilateral justify reasoning

Setler79 [48]3 years ago
5 0
I think instead of "conjunction" it should say "conjecture"

Anyways, draw out a quadrilateral (see figure 1 attached). It can be any figure with 4 sides. Label the angles as A, B, C and D. The conjecture to prove is that A+B+C+D = 360. In other words, the sum of the four angles of any quadrilateral is always 360 degrees.

Draw a segment from A to C. This segment will cut the quadrilateral into two triangles. Re-label angle A to angle E and F. Do the same for angle C (label it G and H). Essentially, angle A = E+F and angle C = G+H. 
See figure 2. Notice how I've color-coded things. The blue angles correspond to one triangle while the red angles correspond to the other triangle. 

Since we know that three angles of a triangle always add to 180, we can say
B+G+E = 180
F+D+H = 180

Add the two equations (add left side separately; do the same for the right side)
Doing so leads to
B+G+E+F+D+H = 180+180
(E+F) + B + (G+H) + D = 360
A+B+C+D = 360

Which proves the conjecture

A furnace delivers 8.0 × 104 btu per hour. how many kilocalories per hour is this?
vazorg [7]
For this case the first thing you should know is the following unit conversion.
 1 BTU = 0.25 Kilocalories
 We then have the following numerical value:
 8.0 * 10 ^ 4 \frac{BTU}{h}
 Applying the conversion of units we have:
 8.0 * 10 ^ 4 \frac{BTU}{h} * 0.25 \frac{Kcal}{BTU}
 Canceling units we have:
 20000 \frac{Kcal}{h}
 Answer:
 
This is 20000 kilocalories per hour
 
20000 \frac{Kcal}{h}

The perimeter of a rectangle is 96 feet, and the width is 22 feet. What is the length of the rectangle?
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

26 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is 2 times its length and 2 times its width, or 2l+2w=P. Let's plug in the given values for the width and perimeter and solve.

2l+2(22)=96

Simplify.

2l+44=96

Subtract 44 on both sides.

2l+44-44=96-44

Simplify.

2l=52

Divide by 2 on both sides.

\frac{2l}{2} =\frac{52}{2}

Simplify again to find the value of l.

l=26

The length is 26 feet.

Good luck <3

∠R and ∠S are complementary. If m∠R = (2x+7) and m∠S = (4x - 13), find m∠R
____ [38]

Answer:

m∠R = 39 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

As complementary angles add up to 90 degrees, we can set up an equation to get x then find the measure of ∠R:

m∠R + m∠S = 90

2x+7+4x-13=90

6x+7-13=90

6x-6=90

6x=96

x=16

Since m∠R = (2x+7), 2x+7 would be 2(16)+7 or 39 degrees. So in conclusion, m∠R = 39 degrees
