Answer:

Hence Proved △ SPT ≅ △ UTQ

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: S, T, and U are the midpoints of Segment RP , segment PQ , and segment QR respectively of Δ PQR.

To prove: △ SPT ≅ △ UTQ

Proof:

∵ T is is the midpoint of PQ.

Hence PT = PQ    ⇒equation 1

Now,Midpoint theorem is given below;

The Midpoint Theorem states that the segment joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints of those sides is parallel to the third side and is half the length of the third side.

By, Midpoint theorem;

TS║QR

Also, TS = \frac{1}{2} QR

Hence, TS = QU (U is the midpoint QR) ⇒ equation 2

Also by Midpoint theorem;

TU║PR

Also, TU = \frac{1}{2} PR

Hence, TU = PS (S is the midpoint QR) ⇒ equation 3

Now in △SPT and △UTQ.

PT = PQ (from equation 1)

TS = QU (from equation 2)

PS = TU (from equation 3)

By S.S.S Congruence Property,

△ SPT ≅ △ UTQ ...... Hence Proved

Sum to n terms the series 7 +77 +777​
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

=7 (1+11+111+1111......n)

=7/9 (9+99+999+9999....n)

=7/9 ((10-1)+(10^2-1)+(10^3-1)+....n)

=7/9 ((10+10^2+10^3...n)-(1+1+1+1.....n))

=7/9 ((10 (10^n-1)/(10-1))-n)

Show that if S1 and S2 are subsets of a vector space V such that S1 c S2 then span(S1) c span(S2). In particular, if S1 c S2 the
klemol [59]

Answer:

See proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that V is a vector space over the field F (take F=R,C if you prefer).

Let x\in span(S_1). Then, we can write x as a linear combination of elements of s1, that is, there exist v_1,v_2,\cdots,v_k \in S_1 and a_1,a_2,\cdots,a_k\in F such that x=a_1v_1+a_2v_2+\cdots+a_kv_k. Now, S_1\subseteq S_2 then for all y\in S_1 we have that y\in S_2. In particular, taking y=v_j with j=1,2,\cdots,k we have that v_j\in S_2. Then, x is a linear combination of vectors in S2, therefore x\in span(S_2). We conclude that span(S_1)\subseteq span(S_2).

If, additionally  S_2\subseteq S_1 then reversing the roles of S1 and S2 in the previous proof, span(S_2)\subseteq span(S_1). Then span(S_1)\subseteq span(S_2)\subseteq span(S_1), therefore span(S_1)=span(S_2).
