The formulas for the perimeter and area of a square may be derived from the corresponding formulas for a rectangle because, like rectangles, squares are quadrilaterals, therefore sharing the same formal characteristics as a rectangle. They both contain a pair of lengths and a pair of widths, giving us 2-dimensional figures on a plane.

A student solved the following problem and made an error: Triangles ABC and DEF. Angles A and F are congruent and measure 135 de
dmitriy555 [2]
We have that
triangle ABC coordinates
A (0,2)  B(2,4)  C(0,0)

triangle DEF coordinates 
D (2,0)  E ( 4,4)  F (4,2)

using a graph tool
see the attached figure

therefore

Line 1<span> Segment AC equals 2. Segment FE equals 2. Segment AC is congruent to segment FE 
</span>so
Segment AC equals 2-------> is correct
Segment FE equals 2-----> is correct
Segment AC is congruent to segment FE------> is correct

<span>Line 2 ∠A ≅ ∠F------> is correct
</span>
<span>Line 3 Length of segment AB. A (0, 2) B (2, 4) d equals square root of quantity x sub 2 minus x sub 1 squared plus quantity y sub 2 minus y sub 1 squared, d equals square root of quantity 0 minus 2 all squared plus quantity 2 minus 4 all squared, d equals square root of negative 2 squared plus negative 2 squared, d equals square root of 4 plus 4, d equals square root of 8 segment AB = 2.83
</span>
find the distance AB
d=√[(4-2)²+(2-0)²]--------> d=√[4+4]-----> d=√8-----> d=2.83
AB=2.83
so
Line 3 is correct

<span>Line 4 Length of segment DE. D (2, 0) E (4, 4) d equals square root of quantity x sub 2 minus x sub 1 squared plus quantity y sub 2 minus y sub squared, d equals square root of quantity 2 minus 4 all squared plus quantity 0 minus 4 all squared, d equals square root of negative 2 squared plus negative 4 squared, d equals square root of 4 plus 16, then d equals square root of 20 segment DE = 4.47
</span>
find the distance DE
d=√[(4-0)²+(4-2)²]--------> d=√[16+4]-----> d=√20-----> d=4.47
DE=4.47
so
Line 4------> is correct

<span>Line 5 segment AB is congruent with segment DE
AB is not congruent with DE
so
Line 5 is not correct

therefore

the answer is
</span><span>the student make the first mistake in line 5</span><span>

</span>

The length of the triangle for the pool table is the twice the sum of 5 and a number. If the rack is
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

30 + 6x inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the required number be x

If the length of the triangle for the pool table is the twice the sum of 5 and a number

L = 2(5+x)

L = 10+2x

Since the triangle is quadilateral, this means that all sides are equal

Perimeter = 3L

Perimeter = 3(10+2x)

Perimeter = 30+6x

Hence the perimeter, in inches, of the triangle is 30 + 6x inches

25. Michael is studying population changes in two
g100num [7]

Answer: Average rates of change for Bird A is 0.045 and for Bird B is 3.816.

Step-by-step explanation: Through its graph, a function can be analyzed and be identified its attributes. Average Rate of Change is the ratio of change in the function values to the change of x-value, i.e., it is the slope of the function in a specific interval of x. With the Average it is possible to compare two function.

<u>Average Rate of Change</u>

<em><u>Bird A</u></em>:

For the interval [0,18]:

x₁ = 0 f(0) = 8.3

x₂ = 18 f(18) = 9.1

Average = \frac{f(18) - f(0)}{x_{2} - x_{1} }

Average = \frac{9.1 - 8.3}{18 - 0}

Average = 0.045

<em><u>Bird B</u></em>: y = 3.6(1.06)x

For the interval [0,18]:

x₁ = 0 y = 3.6(1.06)0 = 0

x₂ = 18 y = 3.6(1.06)18 = 68.7

Average = \frac{f(18) - f(0)}{x_{2} - x_{1} }

Average = \frac{68.7 - 0}{18 - 0}

Average = 3.816

The Average Rate for Change for Bird A is 0.045 and for Bird B is 3.816. This means that the population of Bird B increase in rate faster than the population of Bird A.
