Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

R is the speed of the plane

S is the speed of the wind

(R-S)*7 = 7490 <--- against the wind

(R+s)*9 = 11610 <--- with the wind

Distributes:

7R - 7S  = 7490

9R + 9S = 11610

Multiplies the top equation by 9

and the bottom equation by 7

63R - 63S = 67410

63R + 63s = 81270

126R = 148680

R=1180

Plugs into original first equation

(R-S)*7 = 7490

(1180-s)*7 = 7490

 1180 - s = 7490/7

1180 - s = 1070

-s = -110

s = 110

The speed of the plane in still air is 1180

The spped of the wind is 110

This is awfully fast.

Which congruence theorems can be used to prove ΔABR ≅ ΔACR? Select three options.
sergejj [24]

Answer:

1. HL

2. SAS

3. SSS

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles ABR and ACR share side AR (hypotenuse of two right triiangles).

Angles ABR and ACR are right angles.

Sides AB and AC are congruent.

Sides BR and CR are congruent.

1. You can use HL theorem, because two triangles have congruent pair of legs and congruent hypotenuses.

2. You can use SAS theorem, because two triangles have two pairs of congruent legs and a pair of included right angles between these legs.

3. You can use SSS theorem, because two triangles have two pairs of congruent legs and  congruent hypotenuses.
