Answer:

It is not necessary to check all angles and sides in order to tell if two triangles are similar. In fact, if you know only that two pairs of sides are proportional and their included angles are congruent, that is enough information to know that the triangles are similar. This is called the SAS Similarity Theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is true.

CD is perpendicular to AB and passes through point C5, 12).

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

x intercept of CD = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a line AB with its end coordinates. and Another line segment CD which is perpendicular to AB. We have the coordinates of C , and we are asked to find the x intercept of line CD.

For that we need to find the equation of CD

we have coordinates of C , and hence if we have slope of CD we can find equation of CD

Slope of CD can be determine with the help of slope of AB as CD⊥ AB

So, the slope of CD $mCD = -\frac{1}{mAB}$

Hence we start from determining slope of AB

slope is given as

$m= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m= \frac{14-(-3)}{7-(-10)}=\frac{17}{17}=1$

Hence $mAB=1$

There fore $mCD=-1$

(∵ Product of Slopes of two perpendicular lines is always -1)

Now we find the equation of CD with the help of slope -1 and coordinates of C(5,12)

$m=\frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1}$

$-1=\frac{y-12}{x-5}$

$-x+5=y-12$

$y=-x+17$

Hence we have our equation , now in order to find the x intercept we keep y = 0 in it and solve for x

$0=-x+17$

$x=17$

Hence the x intercept is 17

Use synthetic division to show that the number given to the right of the equation is a solution of the equation. Then solve the

AysviL [449]

Answer:

$x = 2 \: or \: x = - 2 \: or \: x = - \frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given polynomial equation is

$2 {x}^{3} + {x}^{2} - 8x - 4 = 0$

We perform the synthetic division as shown in the attachment by dividing by x-2.

This gives a remainder of 0 and a quotient of

$2 {x}^{2} + 5x + 2$

This means the polynomial equation becomes:

$(x - 2)(2 {x}^{2} + 5x + 2) = 0$

We factor the quadratic term by splitting the middle term;

$(x - 2)(2 {x}^{2} + 4x +x + 2) = 0$

$(x - 2)(2 x(x+ 2) +1(x + 2) )= 0$

Collect common factors again:

$(x - 2)((x+ 2)(2x + 1) = 0$

The solution is:

$x = 2 \: or \: x = - 2 \: or \: x = - \frac{1}{2}$
