Points J and K are midpoints of the sides of triangle FGH. Triangle F G H is cut by lines segment J K. Point J is the midpoint o

f side G H. Point K is the midpoint of side H F. Line segments G J and J H are congruent. Line segments H K and K F are congruent. The Length of J K is 2 y + 5 and the length of G F is 5 y + 3.
What is the value of y?

Answer:

Value of y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

By the midpoint theorem of the triangles,

"Segment joining midpoints of the two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and measure half the length of the third side."

Therefore, from the figure attached,

In ΔFGH,

J and K are the mid points of the two sides GH and FH.

By theorem, segment JK║GF and m(JK) = \frac{1}{2}m(FG)

(2y+5)=\frac{1}{2}(5y+3)

(5y + 3) = 2(2y + 5)

5y + 3 = 4y + 10

5y - 4y = 10 - 3

y = 7

Nimisha wants to draw a wheel like the one shown. Each shaded part of the wheel should be one-third of each unshaded part. What
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Each shade has a 22.5 degree angle from the middle

Each unshaded has a 67.5 degree angle from the middle.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this by making each unshaded part equal to x and each shaded part equal 1/3x it is a circle so it has to equal 360 so you end up with:

x + 1/3x + x + 1/3x + x + 1/3x + x + 1/3x = 360

Combine Like terms:

16/3x = 360

Multiply both sides by the opposite:

(3/16) (16/3x) = (360) (3/16)

x=135/2 or x=67.5

Then you can plug 67.5 in for x:

1/3x ---> 1/3(67.5) = 22.5
