Its an indirect proof, so 3 steps :-
1) you start with the opposite of wat u need to prove
2) arrive at a contradiction
3) concludeReport · 29/6/2015261
since you wanto prove 'diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other', you start wid the opposite of above statement, like below :- step1 : Since we want to prove 'diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other', lets start by assuming the opposite, that the diagonals of parallelogram dont bisect each other.Report · 29/6/2015261
Since, we assumed that the diagonals dont bisect each other,
OC≠OA
OD≠OBReport · 29/6/2015261
Since, OC≠OA, △OAD is not congruent to △OCBReport · 29/6/2015261
∠AOD≅∠BOC as they are vertical angles,
∠OAD≅∠OCB they are alternate interior angles
AD≅BC, by definition of parallelogram
so, by AAS, △OAD is congruent to △OCBReport · 29/6/2015261
But, thats a contradiction as we have previously established that those triangles are congruentReport · 29/6/2015261
step3 :
since we arrived at a contradiction, our assumption is wrong. so, the opposite of our assumption must be correct. so diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other.
Answer:
x = 9; y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Saving and investing are different because investing will generate and duplicate the initial money put it in while savings will stay the same amount without duplicating as it would if it was invested.
Answer:
There are a 25% probability that Christine fails the course.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have these following probabilities:
A 50% probability that Christine finds a tutor.
With a tutor, she has a 10% probability of failling.
A 50% probability that Christine does not find a tutor.
Without a tutor, she has a 40% probability of failing.
Probability that she fails:
10% of 50%(fail with a tutor) plus 40% of 50%(fail without a tutor). So
There are a 25% probability that Christine fails the course.
Answer:
height of the Eiffel tower ≈ 300.0 m(nearest tenth of a meter)
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle TDE is not a right angle triangle. Angle TDE can be gotten by subtracting 63° from 180°. Angle on a straight line is 180°. Therefore, 180° - 63° = 117
°.
angle TDE = 117°
angle DTE = 180° - 117° - 31° = 32°
DE = 346.4 m
Side TD can be find using sine law
346.4/sin 32° = TD/sin 31°
cross multiply
346.4 × 0.51503807491 = 0.52991926423TD
178.409189149 = 0.52991926423TD
divide both sides by 0.52991926423
TD = 178.409189149/0.52991926423
TD = 336.672397461
TD ≈ 336.67 m
The side TD becomes the hypotenuse of the new right angle triangle formed with the height of the Eiffel tower.
Using sin ratio
sin 63° = opposite/hypotenuse
sin 63° = h/336.67
cross multiply
h = 336.67 × 0.89100652418
h = 299.975166498
height of the Eiffel tower ≈ 300.0 m(nearest tenth of a meter)
