Answer:

Option (A).

Step-by-step explanation:

                         Statements                                   Reasons

1). Draw a line ZY parallel to PQ             1).Construction

2). m∠ZRP + m∠PRQ + m∠QRY = 180°   2). Angle addition postulate

3). ∠ZRP ≅ ∠RPQ                                     3). Alternate interior angles theorem

4). ∠QRY ≅ ∠PQR                                     4). Alternate angle theorem

5). m∠RPQ + m∠PRQ + m∠PQR =m∠ZRY  5). Substitution

6). m∠ZRY = 180°                                     6). Definition of supplementary angles

7). m∠RPQ+m∠PRQ+m∠PQR = 180°       7). Substitution

Here reason of statement (6) is incorrect.

m∠ZRY = 180°, because angle ZRY is a straight angle not a supplementary angle.

Therefore, Option (A) will be the answer.

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer: 42 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be x

Therefore, width = 2/3x

Area = Length × Width

Therefore, x × 2/3x = 1176

2/3x² = 1176

Divide both side by 2/3

x² = 1176 ÷ 2/3

x² = 1176 × 3/2

x² = 1764

x = ✓1764

x = 42

The length is 42 feet

Answer plz I will correct answer as brainliest
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
X is equal to 30 (vertically opposite angles)

y=180-50
=130 degrees (angles in a straight line equal to 180)

z=180-130-30 (angle sum of a triangle equal to 180)
z=20 degrees

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

$4.70 + $4.75m = $18.95 which is 3 miles in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

First make the numbers without the variables on one side.

4.75m = 18.95-4.70

Then subtract.

4.75m = 14.25

Finally divide the two numbers.

14.25 ÷ 4.75 = 3 miles

Answer:  m = 3  or 3 miles
