Steve determines that sides DK and BC are congruent. He also measures angle K and angle C and determines that they are congruent

He concludes that the triangles are congruent by the SAS Congruence Theorem. Is Steve correct? If he is incorrect, which congruence theorem should Steve use? Explain your reasoning and show all of your work including measurement of angles and / o * r line segments .

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

SAS requires two sides and the included angle to be congruent

Steve needs to measure sides EK and AC and if they are congruent, he can then complete his proof

<u>Let's find the measure of EK and AC</u>

  • EC = \sqrt{(-4-4)^2 + (0-6)^2} = \sqrt{8^2 + 6^2}  = \sqrt{100} = 10\\
  • AC = \sqrt{(-2 - 6)^2 + (9 - 3)^2} = \sqrt{8^2 + 6^2} = \sqrt{100} = 10

As we see EK = AC = 10, so the proof is complete

I drew it out below (don't you just love my effort? XD)

You're gonna use the sine trig function to find the length of the shadow

sin26 / 1 = 43 / x; now you cross multiply

sin26 x = 43; divide both sides by sin26

x = 43 / sin26

x = 98 which is the shadow

Hope this helps!

–12i × 3i

Multiply the numbers

-12*3 = -36

Multiply the imaginary number

i*i= i^2

We know i^2 = -1

-36 * -1 = 36
