The polygons are similar.

This is because dividing the corresponding sides forms the same ratio, as shown by the three equations below

35/28 = 1.25

25/20 = 1.25

(15.5)/(12.4) = 1.25

So the larger figure on the right has side lengths that are 1.25 times larger compared to the corresponding sides of the figure on the left.

You'll need to flip the figure on the left so that the side labeled "20" is along the top, and the "28" is along the bottom.

After this flip happens, also note that the angle arc markings match up. The bottom pairs of angles of each figure are shown with a single arc, while the top angles are shown as double arcs. This helps visually show which angles pair up and are congruent to one another.

Because we have similar proportions as discussed earlier, and congruent pairs of angles like this, this shows the two figures are similar quadrilaterals. The one on the right is simply an enlarged scaled up copy of the figure on the left.

6x+3<7-2x<br> I’m not sure if I’m doing it right so an explanation would be nice

enot [183]

Answer:

x<0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

this is just like simplifiying equations if you've done that before

first you want to isolate the variable, so you want to combine the values of x (in this case it's 6x and the -2x)

so you can either add 2x to both sides or you can subtract 6x on both sides, in this case ill just add 2x to both sides.

Then you subtract 3 from both sides to get 8x<4

after you get that, you want to divide both sides by 8, and you generally want to do that step last, it makes it easier, and you get x<1/2 or 0.5

just a reminder that with working with inequalities, you want to remember to flip the direction the inequality is whenever you divide by a negative number

what property justifies this statement if segment AB is congruent to segment de and segment de is congruent to segment a b

irina [24]

Answer:

If segment AB is congruent to segment DE, then segment DE is congruent to segment AB.

This is the same as if a=b then b=a! which property does that sound like?

Step-by-step explanation:

4. 3x + 4=35, well 3x+4-4=35 -4 -> 3x= 35-

4, which property subtracts from both sides?

8. it's already proven! what else is left but to use it! A property is not something in need of proof, it's the very basic stuff we start off with! A conjuncture is still not proven only thought to be true. That leaves 2.

9. if i give u the answer to this one then you won't get much out of it! so either i give you the answer or you get it yourself, those are the conditions.

10. p --> q, well we know p OR q is not it because OR is a U P AND q is not it because OR is a U

so it must be implies!

But is it p implies q or is it q implies p.

Hmmmm...i wonder.. which way does the arrow point from the st to the 2nd.

12. The statement is P then Q Inverses is not P the Q Inverse is not Q converse is Q the P

Contraceptive is not Q then not P.

13. If and only if, i will give you the answer if and only if you only look it up on the internet.

Did i put one condition on you to do it or two?

Indirect proof is a type of proof in which a statement to be proved is assumed false and if the assumption leads to an impossibility, then the statement assumed false has been proved to be true.
