Answer:
The missing reason in the proof is transitive property
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Statement </u> <u>Reason </u>
1. x ∥ y w is a transversal 1. given
2. ∠2 ≅ ∠3 2. def. of vert. ∠s
3. ∠2 ≅ ∠6 3. def. of corr. ∠s
4. ∠3 ≅ ∠6 4. ??????????
From the statements 2 and 3
The previous proved statement to make use of the transitive property reason or proof
∴ 4. ∠3 ≅ ∠6 4. transitive property
Note: the transitive property states that: If a = b and b = c, then a = c.
Answer:
x = 5
y = 40°
Step-by-step explanation:
the median and the base of the large triangle are parallel so angle y has the same measure as the one labeled as 40°
the median is half the base of the large triangle, so 5x = 8x + 10/2
cross-multiply: 10x = 8x + 10
2x = 10
x = 5
