In ∆ABC, the altitudes from vertex B and C intersect at point M, so that BM = CM. Prove that ∆ABC is isosceles.

1 answer:

3 0

BM=CM implies that BCM is isosceles. This means that an altitude from the third vertex A of the triangle ABC, which must necessarily go through M will intersect BC exactly in the middle. This implies that the angles <CBA = <BCA which means the ABC is isosceles.

Ben is traveling home on M1 and M42 both motorways have roadworks he has fifty-fifty chance of getting delayed on the M42 and 75

WARRIOR [948]

P(being delayed on M1) = 0.5 →P(NOT being delayed on M1) = 1-0.5 = 0.5

P(being delayed on M42)=0.75→P(NOT being delayed on M42) = 1-0.75= 0.25

P(NOT being delayed on M1) AND P(NOT being delayed on M42) = 0.5x0.25
→ 0.125 = 1/8

So, the chances he will not be delayed on his journey is 1/8

In a factory there are 100100 units of a certain product, 55 of which are defective. We pick three units from the 100 units at r

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

There is a 33.67% probability that exactly one of them is defective.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Here, we can have different formats. For example, D-ND-ND is the same as ND-D-ND, that is, the ordering is not important. So we use the combinations formula.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
