Answer:

∠C = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

When dealing with similar triangles, the angles of both triangles are equal. With that being said, the letters of those angles typically corralete as well. In this case, we have ΔABC and ΔDEF. Based on the way those letters are arranged, we can assume the following:

∠A = ∠D

∠B = ∠E

∠C = ∠F

The question tells us ∠A = 36°. Since we know that ∠A is equal to ∠D, we know that ∠D also equals 36°. The question also tells us ∠E = 74°. Once again, since we know that ∠E is equal to ∠B, we know that ∠B is 74° as well.

Now we use that information to solve for ∠C. The sum of the angles of a triangle always adds up to 180°. Because we know that, we can solve easily:

180 - (36 + 74) = 70

∴ ∠C = 70°

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the coordinate of the midpoint of segment QB, first, find the distance from Q to B.

QB = |4 - 8| = |-4| = 4

The coordinate of the midpoint of QB would be at ½ the distance of QB (½*4 = 2).

Therefore, coordinate of the midpoint of QB = the coordinate of Q + 2 = 4 + 2 = 6

Coordinate of B - 2 = 8 - 2 = 6

Coordinate of the midpoint of QB = 6

Coordinate of W = -8

Coordinate of A = 0

distance from W to A (WA) = |-8 - 0| = |-8| = 8

The coordinate of the midpoint of WA would be at ½ the distance of WA = ½*8 = 4.

Therefore, coordinate of the midpoint of WA = the coordinate of W + 4 = -8 + 4 = -4

Coordinate of A - 4 = 0 - 4 = -4

Coordinate of the midpoint of WA = -4

Now, let's find the midpoint between the two new coordinates we have found, which are -4 and 4

Distance of the segment formed by coordinate -4 and 4 = |-4 - 4| = |-8| = 8

Midpoint = ½*8 = 4

Coordinate of the midpoint = -4 + 4 = 0

4 - 4 = 0

The lines whose equation is x = a, are vertical lines that pass through the point (a, y) where y is any real number. Additionally, vertical lines have an indefinite slope.
