We have to determine if triangle PQR is similar to triangle XYZ or not.

To determine if the two triangles are similar, we use three postulates

AA, SSS, SAS.

AA means two angles must be equal in both triangles.

From picture we can see that only one angle is given so we can't be sure about other angles.

SSS means all sides are in same ratio but we have been given value of only one side. So that is also not applicable.

SAS means ratio of two sides from both traingles is equal and both triangles share a common angle but that is also not the given case.

Hence final answer is D. "Cannot be determined".

EASY MATHS PLS HELP

Fofino [41]

Answer:

(1.25, - 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

- 4x + 3y = - 20 → (1)

4x + 2y = - 5 → (2)

Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the x- term

5y = - 25 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = - 5

Substitute y = - 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (2)

4x + 2(- 5) = - 5, that is

4x - 10 = - 5 ( add 10 to both sides )

4x = 5 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = $\frac{5}{4}$ = 1.25

Solution is (1.25, - 5 )

In ΔCDE, \overline{CE}

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

$m\angle CDE=14^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles.

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

∠DEF=∠ECD+∠CDE

substitute the given values

$(4x+5)^o=(x+9)^o+(x+8)^o$

solve for x

Combine like terms

$(4x+5)^o=(2x+17)^o$

Group terms

$4x-2x=17-5$

$2x=12$

$x=6$

Find the measure of angle CDE

$m\angle CDE=(x+8)^o$

substitute the value of x

$m\angle CDE=(6+8)=14^o$
