We can use the given points to solve for the slope.

Slope formula: y2-y1/x2-x1

-3-5/5-(-7)

-8/12

-4/6

-2/3

Best of Luck!

What is the value of x?<br><br> Enter your answer in the box.<br><br> x =
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
Answer: x = 20

We know opposite angles are equivalent so we can set both of these expressions equal to each other to solve for x.

3x + 50 = 6x - 10
50 = 3x - 10 (subtract 3x from both sides)
60 = 3x (add 10 to both sides)
20 = x (divide both sides by 3)

Theorem: The segment joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half its length. A two-c
natali 33 [55]

Answer:  By the slope formula.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: ABC is a triangle (shown below),

In which A≡(6,8), B≡(2,2) and C≡(8,4)

And, D and E are the mid points of the line segments AB and BC respectively.

Prove: DE║AC and DE = AC/2

Proof:

Since, And, D and E are the mid points of the line segments AB and BC respectively.

Therefore, By mid point theorem,

coordinate of D are (\frac{2+6}{2} , \frac{2+8}{2} ) = (\frac{8}{2} , \frac{10}{2} )= (4,5)

Coordinate of E are  (\frac{2+8}{2} , \frac{2+4}{2} ) = (\frac{10}{2} , \frac{6}{2} )= (5,3)

By the distance formula,

DE=\sqrt{(5-4)^2+(3-5)^2}=\sqrt{5}

AC=\sqrt{(8-6)^2+(4-8)^2}=2\sqrt{5}

By the slope formula,

Slope of AC = \frac{4-8}{8-6} = \frac{-4}{2} = -2

Slope of DE =  \frac{3-5}{5-4} = \frac{-2}{1} = -2


            Statement                                              Reason

1. The coordinate of D are (4,5)  and           1. By the midpoint formula

the coordinate of  E are (5,3)

2. The length of DE = √5                            2. By the Distance formula

The length AC = 2√5 ⇒ Segment DE

is half the length of segment AC

3. The slope of DE = -2 and the                3. By the slope formula

slope of AC = -2

4. DE║AC                                                   4. Slopes of parallel lines are equal
