State whether the triangles could be proven congruent, if possible, by SSS or SAS.
Helen [10]

Answer:

1. SSS

2. SAS

3. SAS

4. SSS

5. SAS

6. SAS

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Side FY ≅ Side CW  Given

Side FP ≅ Side CM     Given

Side YP ≅ Side MW    Given

∴ΔMCW ≅ ΔFPY by the Side-Side-Side (SSS) rule of congruency

2) ∠CBD ≅ ∠BCA given that both are alternate interior angles

Side EB ≅ Side EC and Side DB ≅ Side CA Given

ΔBED ≅ ΔAEC by Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency

3. ∠SVU ≅ ∠SVT   Given

Side SV ≅ Side SV  by reflexive property

Side VT ≅ Side VU   Given

∴ ΔVSU ≅ ΔVST by Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency

4. Side MN ≅ Side QP  Given

Side MQ ≅ Side NP     Given

Side NQ ≅ Side NQ    by reflexive property

∴ΔQNM ≅ ΔQNP by the Side-Side-Side (SSS) rule of congruency

5. Indirect proof

Side GL ≅ Side HL  Given

Side GJ ≅ Side HK     Given

∠JLG ≅ ∠HLK    vertically opposite angles

By sine rule

GJ/sin(∠JLG) = GL/n(∠GJL)

Similarly

HK/sin(∠HLK) = HL/n(∠HKL)

∴ ∠GJL ≅ ∠HKL

∴ ∠LGJ ≅ ∠LHK third angle of two triangles given the other two angles are congruent

∴ΔQNM ≅ ΔQNP by the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency

6. ∠XZY ≅ ∠XZW   Supplementary ∠s with ∠XZY = 90°

Side XZ ≅ Side XZ  by reflexive property

Side ZW ≅ Side ZY   Given

∴ ΔXYZ ≅ ΔXWZ by Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency.

A pile of 55 coins, consisting of nickels and dimes, is worth $3.90. find the number of each.
xz_007 [3.2K]
<span>N + D = 55 coins (1) (N stands for nickels, 5N + 10D = 390 cents (2) D stands for dimes) Simplify (2) by canceling the factor 5 in both sides: N + 2D = 78 (3) Subtract eq(1) from eq(3). You will get D = 78 - 55 = 23. Answer. 23 dimes and 55-23 = 32 nickels. Check. 23*10 + 32*5 = 390 cents</span>

Can someone help me with this
frez [133]

Answer:

8 laps

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming in the equation given than n represents the number of laps run and t represents the time in minutes, when we plug in 16 in for t and simplify we get:

n=5/10*16

n=1/2*16 (Simplify the fraction by dividing top and bottom by 5)

n=16/2 (Multiply the fractions together by writing 16 as 16/1 and multiplying straight across)

n=8
