Solution:

In Parallelogram B CDE

BC= DE, BC ║DE

CD = BE , CD ║BE

Also, ∠B=∠D and ∠C=∠E →→In a parallelogram opposite sides are equal and parallel, as well as opposite angles are equal.Diagonals Bisect each other.

∠B= 60° , ∠C ED= 40°

CE is a transversal and BC║DE.

∠CED=∠BCE = 40° →→Alternate interior angles

In Δ BCE

∠B + ∠BCE + ∠BEC= 180°→→→Angle sum property of Triangle.

60° + 40° + ∠ B E C= 180°

100° + ∠BEC=180°

∠BEC= 180° -100°

∠BEC= 80°

Two Social Security numbers (see Exercise 8.12) match zeros if a digit of one number is zero iff the corresponding digit of the
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Proved

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given parameters, we have:

n = 9 i.e. the length of each security numbers

r = 2 i.e. 2 security numbers

Required

In 513 security numbers, 2 must have matching zeros

To do this, we make use of Pigeonhole principle.

First, we calculate the number of all security numbers not having matching zeros.

Each of the 9 digits can be selected in 2 ways.

2 ways implies that each digit is either 0 or not

So, total selection is:

Total = 2^9

Total = 512

Apply Pigeonhole principle

The principle states that: suppose there are n items in m containers, where n>m, then there is at least one container that contains more than 1 item.

This means that if there are 512 security number without matching zeros, then there is 1 (i.e. 512 + 1) with matching zeros.

512 + 1 = 513
