Answer:

∠ HGL = 73°

Step-by-step explanation:

KL is a midsegment of the triangle and is parallel to HG, then

∠ KLJ = ∠ HGL ( corresponding angles ), so

9x - 62 = 5x - 2 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

4x - 62 = - 2 ( add 62 to both sides )

4x = 60 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 15

Thus

∠ HGL = 5x - 2 = 5(15) - 2 = 75 - 2 = 73°

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points J (1,-10) and K (7, 2)

From the section formula

$(x,y)=\left(\dfrac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n}, \dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\right)$

The y-coordinates of the point that divides the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 5:1 is obtained using the formula:

$y=\dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\\m=5, n=1, y_1=-10, y_2=2\\Therefore:\\y=\dfrac{5*2+1*-10}{5+1}\\=\dfrac{10-10}{6}\\=0$

The y-coordinates of the point that divides the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 5:1 is 0.

You and a friend stand back to back. You run 20 feet forward, then 15 feet to your right. At the same time, your friend runs 16

Stells [14]

Answer:

Distance traveled by the snowball = 45feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance traveled by the snowball = distance of hypothenus for both Right angle triangle

1st pythagoras =

X² = 20² + 15²

X = (20² + 15²)¹/² = 25 feet

2nd pythagoras =

X² = 16² + 12²

X = (16² + 12²)¹/² = 20 feet

Distance traveled by the snowball = 20 + 25 = 45feet
