Geometry Proofs (Parallelograms)

Since measure REU equal measure SFT, RE=FT and SF=EU then the two triangles REU et SFT are similar.
Then we deduce that the two sides RU and ST are equal, RU=ST.
Also, since the two triangles above are similar, then the two angles FST and RUE are equal. We deduce that the two lines RU and ST are parallel (interior opposite angles principles.)
We have two facts now:
RU = ST and RU parallel to ST, we deduce that the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.

Can someone give me an example on how to solve non right angled triangles?

allochka39001 [22]

First use the

Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse h of the right triangle.

h = √(62 + 82)

= √(36 + 64)

= 10

In the number 7,890,432, name the digit located in each of these positions.

Mkey [24]

Sure. So the hundreds digit is after the tens digit which is 3, so therefore it's 4. The millions digit is 7 places to the left, so it's 7. Ten thousands digits are 5 places to the left, so it's 9. The hundred thousands is 6 to the left, therefore 8. Finally, the thousands is 4 places to the left, so it's 0. Hope this helped!

Monique is factoring the expression 4 x + 16 x y. Her work is shown below. Factors of 4x: 1, 2, 4, x Factors of 16xy: 1, 2, 4, 8

Anika [276]

Answer:

Monique made an error when writing the factored expression.

Correct factored

expression=4x(1+4y)

Step-by-step explanation:

factoring the expression 4 x + 16 x y.

Factors of 4x: 1, 2, 4, x

Factors of 16xy: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, x, y

GCF: 4x

Factored expression: 4 x (0 + 4 y)

Monique made an error when writing the factored expression.

The correct factored expression should be:

4x+16xy

=4x(1+4y)

Contrary to 4x(0+4y)

Correct factored

expression=4x(1+4y)
