Kelly was asked to determine whether △KLN is congruent to △MNL. She noted that KL ≅ MN, LM ≅ KN, and that the three pairs of cor

responding angles are congruent. She said that this is only five pairs of congruent corresponding parts, so it is not possible to conclude that △KLN is congruent to △MNL. Do you agree with Kelly's reasoning? Complete the explanation.

Answer:

<h2>Kelly is wrong, with this congruent parts, we can conclude that triangles are congruent.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To demonstrate congruent triangles, we need to use the proper postulates. There are at least 5 postulates we can use.

  • Angle-Angle-Side Theorem (AAS theorem).
  • Hypotenuse-Leg Theorem (HL theorem).
  • Side-Side-Side Postulate (SSS postulate).
  • Angle-Side-Angle Postulate (ASA postulate).
  • Side-Angle-Side Postulate (SAS postulate).

In this case, Kelly SAS postulate, because the corresponding sides-angles-sides are congruent, i.e., KL ≅ MN and LM ≅ KN, also, all corresponding angles are congruent.

So, as you can see, only using SAS postulate, the congruency can be demonstrated. (Refer to the image attached to see an example of SAS postulate)

PLZZZZ HELP The Lakeview city council is considering two different plans to help reduce the amount of pollution in the city. Pla
sdas [7]
1. The two equations follow the slope-intercept form which y=mx + b. They have the same y-intercept which is equal to 900.

2. Suppose x= 10
    Plan Alpha: y=-7x+900=-7(10)+900=830
    Plan Foxtrot: y = -17x+900 = -17(10)+900=730
    
    Between the 2 plans, the lower value is 730. Plan Foxtrot is better for reduction of pollution.

3. The city council should choose Plan Foxtrot because the reduction of pollution is much greater. Their goal would be reached faster if they go with faster reduction of pollution.

At a concession stand, a pickle and two bags of chips costs a total of $3.25. Three pickles and four bags of chips costs a total
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

A bag of chips costs $1

A pickle costs $1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

P + 2c = 3.25                            Start with these two equations

3p + 4c = 7.25

p = -2c + 3.25                           Solve for one variable

3(-2c +3.25) + 4c = 7.25           Substitute

-6c + 9.75 + 4c = 7.25

-2c = -2

c = 1

p + 2(1) = 3.25                           Substitute

p + 2 = 3.25

p = 1.25
