Answer: 2 < x < 7</h3>
==================================================
Explanation:
We'll use the hinge theorem here. This says (more or less) that the larger an angle is, the side opposite of that will be longer.
Imagine that the segments with the single tickmarks represent a door swinging open/shut. The more open a door is, the further the distance it is from the handle to the frame. In terms of these triangles, the segment 25 is larger than 5x-10 because the angle 90 (opposite the 25) is larger than the angle 85 degrees (opposite the 5x-10)
In symbols we say
5x - 10 < 25
We also say 5x - 10 > 0 or 0 < 5x - 10 to ensure that the segment of length 5x-10 is not 0 or negative.
Put the two inequalities together and we get 0 < 5x - 10 < 25
------------
Solve for x
0 < 5x - 10 < 25
0+10 < 5x - 10 < 25 + 10 .... adding 10 to all sides
10 < 5x < 35
10/5 < 5x/5 < 35/5 ... dividing all sides by 5
2 < x < 7
We have x between 2 and 7, and not equal to either endpoint.
Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(6,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) group the x and y terms (and move the constant to the other side)
x²-12x+y²-2y= -12
divide the coeficcents for the terms with just 1 or 1 x variable by 2 and then square it (and add that to both sides)
x²-12x+36+y²-2y+1= -12+36+1
factor
(x-6)²+(y-1)²= 25
the center is therefore (6,1)
So the angle that's next to the 62 is 118. Now that means the other angles have to add up to 62. 62-14= 48 and 48/2 is 24 so X=24. Good luck! :)
RS is perpendicular to MN and PQ.
We can use the slopes of these lines to determine the answer.
Slope is given by the formula
m=.
Using the coordinates for M and N, we have:
m=.
Since PQ is parallel to MN, its slope will be as well, since parallel lines have the same slope.
Using the coordinates for points T and V in the slope formula, we have
m=.
This is not parallel to MN or PQ, since the slopes are not the same.
We can also say that it is not perpendicular to these lines; perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals (they are opposite signs and are flipped). This is not true of TV either.
Using the coordinates for R and S in the slope formula, we have
m=. Comparing this to the slope of RS, it is flipped and the sign is opposite; they are negative reciprocals, so they are perpendicular.
