Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
By definition the median of the triangle bisects the base of the isosceles triangle.
We need to prove that the 2 triangles formed by the median are congruent.
If the 2 triangles are ABD and ACD where BD is the median and < ABC is the angle from which BD is drawn.
BD = BD ( the common side)
AD = DC ( because BD is the median).
AB = AC ( because ABC is an isosceles triangle).
So Triangles ABD and ACD are congruent by SSS.
Therefore m < ABD = m < CBD, so BD is the bisector of < ABC.
To prove BD is also the altitude:
Triangles ABD and CBD are congruent as we have just proven. Therefore the
of measure of the base angle ABD = m < CBD . Also they are adjacent angles ( on the same line) so they add up to 180.
Therefore angles ABD and CBD are both right angles and BD is the altitude of triangle ABC.
Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x+4)=36
Divide each side by 3
3/3 (x+4)=36/3
x+4 = 12
Subtract 4 from each side
x+4-4 = 12-4
x = 8
P=22 rewrite the question as -8+p/11=-6 then move all terms not containing p to the right side p/11=2 multiply both sides of the given equation by 11, the reciprocal, 11*p/11=11*2

brother = 2x-3
x+2x-3= 24
27 /3= 3 x/3
x= 9 years
Calculate for the mean/ average of the given numbers:
μ = (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5) / 5 = 3
Then, we calculate for the summation of the squares of differences of these numbers from the mean, S
S = (1 - 3)² + (2 - 3)² + (3 - 3)² + (4 - 3)² + (5 - 3)²
S = 10
Divide this summation by the number of items and take the square root of the result to get the standard deviation.
SD = sqrt (10 / 5) = sqrt 2
SD = 1.41
Thus, the standard deviation of the given is equal to 1.41.
