Answer: Choice A) AA postulate; 18
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Work Shown:
The triangles are similar to each other due to the AA (angle angle) postulate. The top angles are overlapping or shared angles. So that's the first pair. The second pair of angles is either bottom pair of angles, from the fact that corresponding angles are congruent. This is only true if the lines are parallel.
Due to the similar triangles, we can set up the proportion and solve for x
8/(8+4) = 12/x
8/12 = 12/x
8*x = 12*12 ... cross multiply
8x = 144
x = 144/8
x = 18
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation y = 5x - 2 is slope-intercept form of linear function.
- The shape of the graph is the line
It has positive slope of 5, therefore is increasing function, the line goes up from left to right on the coordinate plane
Answer:
-7.5 - (8.5 + 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
We just add together the values of how much it dropped at different parts of the day, and subtract them from what we started with. The parenthesis are important cause we want to know what the total temperature drop for the day was before we subtract it to get the actual temperature we end up with.
