Answer:

-100x=-100

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

(simplifying the equation)

-100x-100=0

-100x=-100 they subtracted -100 from both sides

x=1 then divided by -100

:) ur welcome

Valerie is going to use SAS to prove that triangle VWX is congruent to triangle YZX, which of these is a necessary dye in Valeri

Archy [21]

You are correct in selecting choice A as the answer.

You need the middle angles between the two pairs of given congruent sides, so that you can prove the triangles to be congruent through SAS. The vertical angle theorem is used in this case. Alternate interior angles only come from parallel lines, but we dont know if any of the lines are parallel. Even if we did know the lines were paralle, we still wouldn't use the alternate interior angle theorem.

HELP PLEASE ANYONE STEP BY STEP TIMED

UNO [17]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\text{B) 4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the properties of some of these circles to solve and find the value of x.

FIrst off - we know that to find the side of a right triangle we can use the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$ (a and b being legs, c being the hypotenuse.)

<h2><u>Finding the hypotenuse</u></h2>

We also know that this triangle is in a circle. Part of the hypotenuse and the altitude of the triangle are in the circle.

Point W is the center of the circle. Therefore, any points stretching to the edge from it will be equal (since this is a circle).

With this knowledge - UW and WZ are equal.

Therefore, since UW is $x-1$ , WZ will be too.

We also know the length of VZ. We can add this to WZ to find the length of the whole hypotenuse.

$\displaystyle x-1+2 \\ x+1$

So the length of the hypotenuse, WV, is $x+1$ .

<h2><u>Finding the value of x</u></h2>

Now that we know the length of the hypotenuse, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem like we stated before to find the value of x.

We know the two legs are $x-1$ and $2x-4$ , while the hypotenuse is

$\displaystyle (x-1)^2 + (2x-4)^2 = (x+1)^2$
$(x^2 - 2x + 1) + (4x^2-16x+16) = (x^2 + 2x + 1)$ (use FOIL to find the value of each expression squared)
$5x^2 - 18x + 17 = x^2 + 2x + 1$ (simplify the left side)
$4x^2 -20x + 16 = 0$ (subtract both sides by $x^2 +2x + 1$ )
$x = \frac{{ -b \pm \sqrt {b^2 - 4ac} }}{{2a}}$ (Quadratic formula)
$\frac{{ -(-20) \pm \sqrt {(-20)^2 - 4 \cdot 4 \cdot 16} }}{{2 \cdot 4}}$ (plug in values from equation)
$\frac{{ 20 \pm \sqrt {400 - 256} }}{8}}$ (simplify)
$\frac{{ 20 \pm \sqrt {144} }}{8}}$ (simplify)
$\frac{{ 20 \pm 12 }}{8}}$ (simplify)
$\displaystyle x = \frac{20+12}{8} \ \text{and} \ \frac{20-12}{8}$ (use plus/minus to find two roots)
$\displaystyle x = \frac{32}{8} \ \text{and} \ \frac{8}{8}$ (simplify)
$\displaystyle x = 4 \ \text{and} \ 1$
