You can understand this by two ways

1) through congruency rules

It says that triangle ABE is congruent to DCE
So the corresponding angles are equal
Eg
Angle A to Angle D
Angle B to angle C
Angle E to angle E

So they’re asking the angles AEB and DEC (which are equal as per congruency)

Thus you can equate them
4y-15=69
y=21

2) through vertically opposite angles
Since the triangles’ angles are vertically opposite one another, they are equal.

Then you can equate them the same way

Hope this helped!!

Given: Q = 7m + 3n, R = 11 - 2m, S = n + 5, and T = -m - 3n + 8. Simplify R - S + T

galben [10]

$Q=7m+3n\\R=11-2m\\S=n+5\\T=-m-3n+8\\\\R-S+T=(11-2m)-(n+5)+(-m-3n+8)\\\\=11-2m-n-5-m-3n+8\\\\=(-2m-m)+(-n-3n)+(11-5+8)\\\\=\boxed{-3m-4n+14}$

Suppose a 50-foot ladder is leaning against a wall. Which statements about the base of the ladder are true?

Liula [17]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

These are the statements that make the question complete:

A. If the base is 24 feet from the wall, the ladder reaches 45 feet up the wall.

B. If the base is 30 feet from the wall, the ladder reaches 40 feet up the wall.

C. If the base is 27 feet from the wall, the ladder reaches 44 feet up the wall.

D. If the base is 14 feet from the wall, the ladder reaches 48 feet up the wall.

Since the ladder leans against a wall, a right angle triangle is formed. Since the ladder is now slant, then it's length becomes the hypothenuse.

The correct statements can be gotten through Pythagoras theorem which says:

A² + B² = C² where C is the hypothenuse and A and B are the other two sides.

Since the hypothenuse is 50, we can test each statement by taking the square of the two sides and add them up, if they are equal to 50² = 2500, then the statement is true.

A. 24² + 45² = 576 + 2025 = 2601 ≠ 2500, therefore it is false.

B. 30² + 40² = 900 + 1600 = 2500, therefore it is true.

C. 27² + 44² = 729 + 1936 = 2665 ≠ 2500, therefore it is false

D. 14² + 48² = 196 + 2304 = 2500, therefore it is true.

From here, statements B and D are true while the rest are all false.
