Answer:

If two vectors are parallel, applying the same side interior angles theorem:

=> 80 + a + 59 = 180

=> a = 180 - 80 - 59 = 41 deg

Hope this helps!

Or you could apply alternate angle theorem

Alternate angles make a "z" shape. Alternate angles are equal

So now that we know the third side of the triangle is equal to 59, we do 180=a+59+80

Move fifty nine and eighty to the other side as negative numbers

a=180-59-80

So, a is equal, to 41 :))

Determine which of the lines, if any, are parallel or perpendicular. Explain.

hodyreva [135]

Answer:
line a and b are parallel
line c is not perpendicular because it is not 3

step-by-step explanation:
if the slope is the same it is parallel
if the slope is the complete opposite it is perpendicular
lines a and b are parallel with a slope of -1/3
(0, 5) (3, 4)
m = 4 - 5 / 3 - 0
m = -1 / 3
m = -1/3
(-1, 1) (2, 0)
m = 0 - 1 / 2 + 1
m = -1 / 3
m = -1/3
line c is perpendicular to lines a and b the slope is
(0, 0) (2, 5)
m = 5 - 0 / 2 - 0
m = 5/2

Do the ratios 10/8 and 16/20 form a proportion Yes or no?

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

No. Reduce 10/8 by dividing by 2. 10/8= 5, 8/2= 4. 10/8= 5/4. Reduce 16/20 by dividing by 4. 16/4= 4 , 20/4= 5. 16/20= 4/5.
