Answer:

  Rearrange the equations that result from use of the Pythagorean theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Transversal AB crossing parallel lines AD and BC makes supplementary interior same-side angles A and B. Since A = 90°, B must be 90°. The Pythagorean theorem then applies in the right triangles ABC and ABD.

We can use that theorem to write two expressions for AB^2:

  BD^2 -AD^2 = AB^2 = AC^2 -BC^2

The middle expression, AB^2, isn't needed beyond this point. Adding (AD^2 -AC^2) to both sides of the equation gives the desired result:

  BD^2 -AC^2 = AD^2 -BC^2

HELPPPPPP ME PLEASEEEEEEE
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

This isn't too difficult once you understand it.

The bottom left angle of the left triangle (on the other side of 110), that angle is congruent to the 70 degrees angle. that angle is 70 degrees. y = 90 degrees, 90 + 70 = 160

180 - 160 = 20

Together, Tim and Tom have $2.40. Tim has three times as much as Tom. How much does each have?
Phoenix [80]
X = how much Tim has
y = how much Tom has
x + y = 2.40
x = 3y
Substitute 3y for x
3y + y = 2.40
4y = 2.40
y = 0.60
Plug in y value into previous equation
x = 3(0.60)
x = 1.80
ANSWERS: Tim has $1.80 and Tom has $0.60
