Answer:

3.75 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this figure is regular (all of the sides are congruent), the length of each side would be the perimeter, 7.5, divided by the number of sides, 6:

7.5/6 = 1.25 in.

To find the length across one entire hexagon:

We can draw 6 small triangles from the center of the hexagon.  We will work with the triangle at the bottom.

The top vertex of this triangle will be 60°; this is because there are 6 angles, and 360 (the amount of a complete rotation around the center point) divided by 6 is 60°.

This will be an isosceles triangle.  The top vertex of this triangle is in the center of the hexagon; this means the length of the segment connecting this vertex to the bottom two vertices of the triangle will be the same.  (Think of it as the radius of a circle, the same from the center to every outside point.)

The sum of the measures of the angles in a triangle is 180°; taking out the top angle, we have 180-60 = 120°.  Since the triangle is isosceles, the base angles will be equal:

120/2 = 60

The bottom two angles will also be 60°.  This makes the triangle equiangular, which also makes it equilateral; all 3 sides will be 1.25.

This means across the dotted line we have 1.25+1.25+1.25 = 3.75.

Define a function. Describe what the vertical line test is used for. Describe a real life situation that can be represented by a
Marrrta [24]
A function is a relationship with a quantity (number). For example, if you made a table, and had one side be 1 2 3 4 5 (X axis) and then the y axis (other side) be 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, the function (rule) would be y= x5. The vertical line test is used to see if a graph has a function or not, so if it creates a vertical line on a graph, it has a function.
A real life situation would be miles per hour, so, for the x axis (hours) it said 1, and for the y axis (miles) it would be 60, this means in a duration of 1 hour you went 60 miles. Well, lets say you went 2 hours driving, the miles would be 120. 
For 3 hours, it would be 180. The function here is y= x60!

PLS HELP, I'm not very good at math so I need the answer to this
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

A BT = CT

Step-by-step explanation:

BAT ≅ CAT

That means

The angles are the same and the sides are the same by CPCTC

AB = AC

CT = BT

AT=AT

and

< BAT = <CAT

< ATB = <ATC

< TBA = <TCA

Given the choices on the left

A BT = CT is one of them
