Step-by-step explanation:
b is per the identity of angles on parallel lines when intersected by one inclined line the same as the 40° angle.
so,
b = 40°
due to the parallel nature of the 2 lines there is a symmetry effect for such shapes inscribed a circle. the upper and the lower triangle must be similar. and when applying a vertical line through the central crossing point, everything to the left is mirrored by everything on the right.
so, angle c must be equal to angle b.
c = 40°
and as the sum of all angles in a triangle is always 180°, d is then
d = 180 - 40 - 40 = 100°
the interior angle of the arc angle a is the supplementary angle of d (together they are 180°), because together with d they cover the full down side of the top-left to bottom-right line.
interior angle to a = 180 - 100 = 80°
due to the symmetry again, the arc angle opposite to a is the same as a.
as we know, the interior angle to a pair of opposing arc angles is the mean value of the 2 angles.
so, we have
(a + a)/2 = 80
2a/2 = 80
a = 80°
there might (and actually should) be some more direct approaches for "a" out of the other pieces of information, but that was the most straight one right out of my mind, and I don't spend time on finding additional shortcuts, when I have already a working approach.
A pair of linear angles are formed by two intersecting line and add up to 180 degrees.
Hope this was helpful
We have been given a circle H, in which length of arc XY is 78 miles and measure of arc XY is 70 degrees. We are asked to find the radius of circle.
We will use arc length formula to solve our given problem.
, where,
r = Radius of circle,
= Central angle corresponding to arc.
We know that the measure of central angle that corresponds to arc XY will be equal to measure of arc XY.
Upon rounding to nearest hundredth, we will get:
Therefore, the radius of circle H is approximately 63.88 miles.
Answer:
AC = XY
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. The types of triangles are scalene triangle, equilateral triangle, right angled triangle and obtuse triangle.
Two triangles are said to be congruent if all the three sides and three angles of one triangle is equal to the three sides and three angles of the other triangle.
In Δ ABC and ΔXYZ ,∠B=∠X=90. This means that triangle ABC and triangle XYZ are right angled triangle since one of their angles is 90 degrees.
The hypotenuse is the side opposite to right angle (90 degrees).
Therefore AC is the hypotenuse of triangle ABC and YZ is the hypotenuse of triangle XYZ.
If the hypotenuse and one leg of a right angled triangle is equal to the hypotenuse and leg of another right angled triangle, then the two triangles are congruent by RHS rule.
Since BC = XY, for Δ ABC congruent to ΔXYZ by R.H.S condition, the hypotenuse have to be equal, i.e. AC = XY
