Why can you use Linear Pairs and Vertical Angles to prove lines are parallel?

Mathematics
1 answer:
natta225 [31]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The reason why linear pairs and vertical angles are used to prove lines are parallel is because they area transversal drawn through the parallel lines will form angles on each of the two parallel lines including;

1) Supplementary linear pairs  and

2) Vertical angles

3) Alternate angles

Given that either;

a) The corresponding angles that form the linear pairs are congruent

b) The corresponding vertically opposite angles are congruent

c) The corresponding alternate angles are congruent, we have;

The two lines are said to be parallel.

Anaya swims 10 miles at eachof her practice sessions. how long is a practice session if she swims at an average speed. 2 miles p
Trava [24]

Answer:

If 2 mph) 5 hours

If 2.5 mph) 4 hours

If m mph) 10/m hours

If m+2 mph) 10/(m+2) hours

If m/3 mph) 30/m hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the time divide the distance (10) by the speed.

10/2=5

10/2.5=4

10/m

10/(m+2)

10/(m/3)=10(3/m)=30/m

Mai is visiting Paris to see the Eiffel Tower. She is 80 feet away
Jlenok [28]

Answer: height of the tower is 1064 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine the height of the tower.

Assuming her line of sight of the top of the tower is a straight line, then a right angle triangle is formed. The height, h of the tower represents the opposite side of the triangle. Her distance from the foot of the tower represents the adjacent side of the triangle.

To determine h, we would apply the tangent trigonometric ratio which is expressed as

Tan θ = opposite side/adjacent side

Therefore,

Tan 85.7 = h/80

h = 80tan 85.7

h = 1064 feet
