Step-by-step explanation:

∑ (4ⁿ⁺¹ / 5ⁿ)

Rewrite 4ⁿ⁺¹ as 4 (4ⁿ).

∑ 4 (4ⁿ / 5ⁿ)

∑ 4 (4/5)ⁿ

This is a geometric series.  The sum of an infinite geometric series is:

S = a / (1 −r)

where a is the first term and r is the common ratio.

Here, the first term is 16/5 (because n starts at 1), and the common ratio is 4/5.

S = 16/5 / (1−4/5)

S = 16/5 / (1/5)

S = 16

You have to prove that 2 angles are conguent to the other triangles angles; example: ∠A≅∠C by the additon POC (2 of those) and then one side; example: AB≅BA by the reflexive POE (1 of those)

I cant see the triangles but thats how you do them, also im learning this right now too, look up the triangle congruence things like ASA ≅ SSS≅ HL≅ exc. a chart will explain how to prove them using that:

Write the standard equation of the circle with the given center is (0,0) and radius is 2.5
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

x² + y² = 6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a circle is ( x – h)² + ( y - k)² = r² where the center is (h, k) and r is the radius.

From your given information that the center is (0, 0) then both h and k are 0. Then r is 2.5, so

( x – 0)² + ( y - 0)² = (2.5)²

x² + y² = (2.5)²

x² + y² = 6.25
