Geometry question please help will give Brainlyest! I need the x, y, and z please.
1 answer:
Answer:
x=24
y=10
z=17
Step-by-step explanation:
These triangles are congruent, which means that the corresponding angles are equal to each other.
Let's start with <em>x</em>. Angle H corresponds to angle N, so we set them equal to each other and slove.
x=24
Next, let's look at z. Angle C corresponds to angle P, so again we set them equal. Z=17.
Finally, we must find y. F and S correspond, but we don't know what the measure of angle S is, but we do know that the interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees, so we solve for angle S and get 115°.
180-(36+115)=29
We now know that angle F equals 29. From solving, we know that Y=10.

Answer to the first question: 7/10ths of a mile
Explaination: When adding fractions, you need to have a common denominator. Since dividing 3/10 by 2 to get a denominator of 5 makes 3 a decimal, it's easier to multiply 2/5 by 2 to get a denominator of 10. You do the same to the top that you do to the bottom: . From there, just add 4/10 and 3/10 to get the answer: 7/10ths of a mile.
Answer to the second question: Daniel read three (3/10) more books
Explaination: Since you can't evenly multiply 5 or 2 to get the opposite number, it's easier to multiply to the lowest common multiple. The easiest way to find that is to multiply both denominators (5*2=10). You'll have to multiply the numerator by the same amount you multipled the denominator by. For Daniel, that would mean: . For Edgar, that would mean:
. So, Daniel read 3 more books than Edgar.
Answer to the third question: 2/4 mile (or 1/2 a mile)
Explaination: 2/8 can be simplified, by dividing the top and bottom by 2, resulting in 1/4. Since both fractions have the same denominator (/4), you can add them to get 2/4ths. This can be simplified further to half (1/2) a mile.
