Answer: Third choice. </h3>
==================================================
Explanation:
SAS stands for Side Angle Side. Note how the angle is between the two sides. To prove the triangles congruent with SAS, we need to know two sides and an angle between them.
We already see that BC = CD as shown by the tickmarks. Another pair of sides is AC = AC through the reflexive theorem.
The missing info is the angle measures of ACB and ACD. If we knew those angles were the same, then we could use SAS to prove triangle ACB is congruent to triangle ACD.
It turns out that the angles are congruent only when they are 90 degrees each, leading to AC being perpendicular to BD. We write this as . The upside down T symbol meaning "perpendicular" or "the two segments form a right angle".
Answer:
Factor this polynomial:
F(x)=x^3-x^2-4x+4
Try to find the rational roots. If p/q is a root (p and q having no factors in common), then p must divide 4 and q must divide 1 (the coefficient of x^3).
The rational roots can thuis be +/1, +/2 and +/4. If you insert these values you find that the roots are at
x = 1, x = 2 and x = -2. This means that
x^3-x^2-4x+4 = A(x - 1)(x - 2)(x + 2)
A = 1, as you can see from equation the coefficient of x^3 on both sides.
Typo:
The rational roots can be
+/-1, +/-2 and +/-4

Answer:
∠Q = 75°
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by recognizing that the triangle is isosceles (the long sides are marked as being equal-length). That means angles Q and R have the same measure.
Next, you use the fact that the sum of angles is 180° to write an equation.
∠R +∠P +∠Q = 180°
(2x +15)° +x° +(2x +15)° = 180° . . . . substitute the known values
5x +30 = 180 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by °, collect terms
5x = 150 . . . . . . . . subtract 30
x = 30 . . . . . . . divide by 5
Then angle Q is ...
∠Q = (2x +15)° = (2×30 +15)°
∠Q = 75°
Any multiple of 4 would work.
