NM = OP=hypotenuse

NHM=Ohm=90

MH = HP



the HL theorem is the answer

Answer: 
Choice B) HL Theorem

========================================================

Explanation:

NP is perpendicular to OM. The upside-down T shape means "perpendicular". So we have the two right angles NHM and OHP which are both 90 degrees (so they are congruent to one another). This further means triangle NHM and triangle OHP are right triangles. 

Because they are right triangles, this means we can use the special right triangle congruence properties. Specifically we can use the HL Theorem. HL stands for "Hypotenuse Leg". We're given NM = OP, which are the two corresponding hypotenuses. Since HMP is isosceles with base MP, this means HM = HP which are the corresponding congruent legs. We have a pair of hypotenuses and a pair of legs congruent; therefore, the triangles are congruent by the HL Theorem.

Plz help...<br> 6b - 49 =2(b - 3)
wel
You always start by simplifying.
6b-49=2<span>(</span>b-3) becomes 6b-49=2b-6
From there you can group the b's together by subtracting 2b from both sides, leaving you with 4b-49=-6
Now you can get the b's alone by adding 49 (to cancel out -49) to both sides, giving you 4b=43, You're still trying to get b by itself, so what you'll do is divide both sides by 4, giving you b=10.75

Find the circumference of the pizza to the nearest tenth. Pizza : 10 inches
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

31.4 in

Step-by-step explanation:

I must assume that you meant "10-inch pizza," which implies a diameter of 10 inches.  The formula for the circumference of a circle when the diameter is known is C = πd , so here:

C = π(10 in) = 10π in, or roughly 31.4 in.

Lucy Baker is analyzing demographic characteristics of two television programs: COPS (population 1) and 60 Minutes (population 2
drek231 [11]

Answer and Explanation:

Her alternative hypothesis is that there is some difference between the means of the ages of the audiences of the two television programs. That is, the mean ages of the two audiences are not the same.

If the mean of the ages of the audiences of television programme 1 (COPS) is xbar₁

And the mean of the ages of the audiences of the television programme 2 (60 minutes) is xbar₂

Her alternative hypothesis can be represented mathematically as

xbar₁ - xbar₂ ≠ 0

A basketball team is down by 2 points with only a few seconds remaining in the game. There is a 60% chance that the team will be
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

This means that the coach should have the team going for the 2 point shot. There is a 36% probability of making the 2 point shot and winning overtime.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

A 60% probability of tying the game on a 2 point shot. In this case, the game goes to overtime, in which the team has a 60% probability of winning.

A 30% probability of making the 3 point shot and winning.

What should the coach do, go for the 2 point shot or the 3 point shot?

In which case the team has a higher probability of winning?

The team has:

A 60% probability of tying the game on a 2 point shot. In this case, the game goes to overtime, in which the team has a 60% probability of winning. So, going for the 2 point shot, the team has a 0.6*0.6 = 0.36 = 36% probability of winning.

Going for the 3 point shot, the team has a 30% probability of winning.

This means that the coach should have the team going for the 2 point shot. There is a 36% probability of making the 2 point shot and winning overtime.
