<u>Answer</u>

5 and -4


<u>Explanation</u>

If the two triangle are congruent then they have the same area.

20 = x² - x

x² - x - 20 = 0

x² - x + (1/2)² = 20 + (1/2)²

(x - 1/2)² = 20.25

x - 1/2 = √20.25

x - 1/2 = 4.5                             or    x - 1/2 = - 4.5

x = 4 1/2 + 1/2                                      x = -4 1/2 + 1/2

   = 5                                                      = -4

The values of x are 5 and -4.

What is the slope of the line in the graph?<br>4th possible answer is 4/3<br>----<br>بنام<br>​
Delvig [45]

Answer: Second option.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line can be calculated with this formula:

 m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Then, you need to choose two points of the line shown in the graph and substitute them into the formula for calculate the slope:

Let's pick the points (-4,4) and (4,-2).

Substituting:

m=\frac{-2-4}{4-(-4)}

Simplifiying,  you get that the slope of the line in the graph is:

m=\frac{-2-4}{4-(-4)}\\\\m=\frac{-6}{4+4}\\\\m=\frac{-6}{8}\\\\m=-\frac{3}{4}

Two angles of a quadrilateral measure 150 degrees and 105 degrees the other two angles are in a ratio of 3:4 what are the measur
iragen [17]

Answer:

First angle is 45 and the second angle is 60

Step-by-step explanation:

150 + 105 = 255

360 - 255 = 105

the ratio is 3:4 I add the ratio so 7

105 / 7 = 15

The first angle with the ratio of 3 is 15 x 3 = 45

The second angle with the ratio of 4 is 4 x 15 = 60
