Answer: Choice D

∠DEF ≅ ∠ABC when BH = EJ, BI = EK, and HI = JK.

======================================================

Explanation:

Effectively what Ben is doing is ensuring that

  • BH = EJ
  • BI = EK
  • HI = JK

are the three congruent corresponding sides. This is by construction. After those constructions, he would use SSS to prove the triangles congruent. Lastly, he can then say angle DEF is congruent to angle ABC due to CPCTC.

CPCTC = corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.

Find slope and y-intercept<br> 5x+3y=-6
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

m=-\frac53; q=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's bring the line in the classical y=mx+q form

3y= -5x-6\\y=-\frac53 x -2

At this point we have the two values -\frac53 for the slope and 2 for the intercept

a sixth grade class has 12 boys and 24 girls consider this statement: &lt;br /&gt;for every two boys there are 4 girls do you ag
Nitella [24]
So the ratio of boys to girls is 12:24.. now, is that an equivalent ratio as 2 boys for 4 girls? or 2:4?  let's see.

\bf \cfrac{boys}{girls}\qquad 12:24\qquad \cfrac{12}{24}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{1}{2}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{boys}{girls}\qquad 2:4\qquad \cfrac{2}{4}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{1}{2}}

you could start simplifying the 12/24 fraction by dividing by some common multiple, say 2, and get 6/12, then divide by 3 and get 2/4  and stop there.

then you'll notice that 12/24 is really 2/4 in disguise.
