Given: <SPT = <RQT, ST = RT Prove: PR = QS​

Mathematics

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider triangles PTS and QTR. In these triangles,

  • ST=RT - given;
  • \angle SPT=\angle RQT - given;
  • \angle STP=\angle RTQ - as vertical angles when lines PR and SQ intersect.

Thus, \triangle PTS\cong \triangle QTR by AAS postulate.

Congruent triangles have congruent corresponding sides, so

PT=QT

Consider segments PR and QS:

PR=PT+TR\ [\text{Segment addition postulate}]\\ \\QS=QT+TS\ [\text{Segment addition postulate}]\\ \\PT=QT\ [\text{Proven}]\\ \\ST=RT\ [\text{Given}]

So,

PR=SQ\ [\text{Substitution property}]

At which value in the domain does f(x)=0 ?
lina2011 [118]

f(x)=0

Domain are the set of x values

f(x)=0 , we find all the x values where y =0

At x intercepts y is always 0

so we find all the x intercepts.

x intercepts are the points where the graph crosses x axis

In the graph we can see that the graph crosses x axis at

-2.5 , -0.75 and 1

-2.5 , -0.75 and 1 are the domain where f(x)=0
