Answer:
4a. ∠V≅∠Y
4b. TU ≅ WX
5. No; no applicable postulate
6. see below
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>4.</h3>
a. When you use the ASA postulate, you are claiming you have shown two angles and the side between them to be congruent. Here, you're given side TV and angle T are congruent to their counterparts, sides WY and angle W. The angle at the other end of segment TV is angle V. Its counterpart is the other end of segment WY from angle W. In order to use ASA, we must show ...
∠V≅∠Y
__
b. When you use the SAS postulate, you are claiming you have shown two sides and the angle between them are congruent. The angle T is between sides TV and TU. The angle congruent to that, ∠W, is between sides WY and WX. Then the missing congruence that must be shown is ...
TU ≅ WX

<h3>5.</h3>
The marked congruences are for two sides and a non-included angle. There is no SSA postulate for proving congruence. (In fact, there are two different possible triangles that have the given dimensions. This can be seen in the fact that the given angle is opposite the shortest of the given sides.)
"No, we cannot prove they are congruent because none of the five postulates or theorems can be used."

The first statement/reason is always the list of "given" statements.
1. ∠A≅∠D, AC≅DC . . . . given
2. . . . . vertical angles are congruent
3. . . . . ASA postulate
4. . . . . CPCTC
Answer:
95% confidence interval for the difference between the average mass of eggs in small and large nest is between a lower limit of 0.81 and an upper limit of 2.39.
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval is given by mean +/- margin of error (E)
Eggs from small nest
Sample size (n1) = 60
Mean = 37.2
Sample variance = 24.7
Eggs from large nest
Sample size (n2) = 159
Mean = 35.6
Sample variance = 39
Pooled variance = [(60-1)24.7 + (159-1)39] ÷ (60+159-2) = 7619.3 ÷ 217 = 35.11
Standard deviation = sqrt(pooled variance) = sqrt(35.11) = 5.93
Difference in mean = 37.2 - 35.6 = 1.6
Degree of freedom = n1+n2 - 2 = 60+159-2 = 217
Confidence level = 95%
Critical value (t) corresponding to 217 degrees of freedom and 95% confidence level is 1.97132
E = t×sd/√(n1+n2) = 1.97132×5.93/√219 = 0.79
Lower limit = mean - E = 1.6 - 0.79 = 0.81
Upper limit = mean + E = 1.6 + 0.79 = 2.39
95% confidence interval for the difference in average mass is (0.81, 2.39)
Answer: (x³ - 2x² - 11x + 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that zeroes can be transformed into factors by subtracting them from x. This gives us the following factors:
(x - 1)(x + 3)(x - 4)
Now, if you multiply the first two factors together, you get the following:
(x² + 2x - 3)
Multiply that by the last factor, (x - 4), and you get this:
(x³ + 2x² - 3x - 4x² - 8x + 12)
This can be simplified:
(x³ - 2x² - 11x + 12)
And there's your final answer. Hope this helped! (x³ - 2x² - 11x + 12)
Answer:
A: m<1 = 79 degrees
B: m<1 = 61 degrees, m<2 = 151 degrees, m<3 = 12 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
A: An exterior angle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles. 27+52 in this case.
B: The sum of the measures of the interior angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.
Since we know the two angles in the right trinagle are 90 and 29 degrees, we add them and subract the sum from 180 which gives us 61 degrees.
Applying what we know from part A, 61 degrees+90 degrees = m<2.
And, since we know m<2 = 151 degrees, we add that and the 17 degrees to then subtract that sum from 180 to get the measure of angle 3 which is 12 degrees.
