Answer: They are not perpendicular because their slopes are not negative reciprocals.

Step-by-step explanation:

For these two lines to be perpendicular, their slopes have to be negative reciprocals.

Slope of FG.

F = (-4, 1)

G = (0, -2)

= (Y₂ - Y₁) / (X₂ - X₁)

= (-2 - 1) / (0 + 4)

= -3/4

Slope of HJ

J = (0 , 4)

H = (-4, -2)

Slope = (Y₂ - Y₁) / (X₂ - X₁)

= (-2 - 4) / (-4 -0)

= 6/4

= 3/2

<em>The slopes of these lines are not negative reciprocals so these lines are not perpendicular. </em>

zhenek [66]

Assume the girls sold X boxes in the first week. They sold in the second week X+5 and 2X+10 in the third week.

The sum X + X + 5 + 2X + 10 = 431
4X = 416. Therefore X = 104
The answers are:
a0 = 104
a1 = 109
a2 = 218

Hope that helps you :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So the triangle who posses the angle with measurement k=35 is an isosceles. I know this because there are two congruent legs. Those 2 congruent legs tell us the angles opposite of them are all congruent.

So we know one equation to solve is:

x+x+35=180 where x is the base angle in the left triangle picture.

Combine like terms:

2x+35=180

Subtract 35 on both sides:

2x=180-35

Simplify:

2x=145

Divide both sides by 2:

x=72.5

So one of the base angles of the left isosceles triangle is vertical with with another angle in the right. This triangle on the right is also isosceles.

So we know that 72.5+72.5+h=180.

Combine like terms:

145+h=180

Subtract 145 on both sides:

h=180-145

Simplify:

h=35
