Answer:

6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem involves using ratios to compare side lengths in similar triangles.

136/34=x/1.5

136/34*1.5=x/1.5*1.5

136/34*1.5=x

x=6

4. The system of equations 3x – 6y = 20 and 2x – 4y = 3 is
expeople1 [14]
3x - 6y = 20
-6y = -3x + 20
y = 1/2x - 20/6.....slope = 1/2...y int = -20/6 = -10/3

2x - 4y = 3
-4y = -2x + 3
y = 1/2x - 3/4..slope = 1/2...y int = -3/4

same slope, different y int = parallel lines = no solution = inconsistent

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Scalene

Step-by-step explanation:

Because all triangular angles add up to 180 degrees.

10+20=30

180-30=150

None of those angles are the same.

Vikki [24]

Each of the pairs of the opposite angles made by two intersecting lines are called vertical angles. The correct option is A.

<h3>What are vertical angles?</h3>

Each of the pairs of the opposite angles made by two intersecting lines are called vertical angles.

The proof can be completed as,
Given the information in the figure where segment UV is parallel to segment WZ.: Segments UV and WZ are parallel segments that intersect with line ST at points Q and R, respectively. According to the given information, segment UV is parallel to segment WZ, while ∠SQU and ∠VQT are vertical angles. ∠SQU ≅ ∠VQT by the Vertical Angles Theorem. Because ∠SQU and ∠WRS are corresponding angles, they are congruent according to the Corresponding Angles Theorem. Finally, ∠VQT is congruent to ∠WRS by the Transitive Property of Equality.

Hence, the correct option is A.
