DB is a median (given). It goes from vertex point D to midpoint B.
The point B is the midpoint of segment AC. So B cuts AC into two equal halves: AB and AC
Meaning AB = AC
AC = AB+BC ... segment addition postulate
AC = AB+AB ... substitution; replace BC with AB (valid because AB = AC)
AC = 2*AB
2*AB = AC
2*AB = 50 ... substitution; replace AC with 50
2*AB/2 = 50/2 ... divide both sides by 2
AB = 25 which is the answer
Answer:
You should evaluate whatever is in the parenthesis first.
Answer:
145°
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a couple of ways you can get there:
1. ∠ACB is a right angle, 90°. Hence, ∠BAC is the complement of ∠ABC, so is ...
... ∠BAC = 90° -∠ABC = 90° -55° = 35°
Then, ∠BAC and ∠BAD are a linear pair, so total 180°. That makes ∠BAD the supplement of ∠BAC, so ...
... ∠BAD = 180° -35° = 145°
2. ∠BAD is the exterior angle at A for the triangle ABC. It will have a measure that is the sum of the opposite interior angles: given ∠ABC = 55° and right angle ACB = 90°.
... ∠BAD = 55° +90° = 145°
Answer:
24 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
the math is.
.681÷ .454= 1.5 which is in pounds than you take 16÷2= 8 take that 8 add it to the 16 giving you 24 ounces
