What is the first error Alycia made in her proof.

Mathematics
1 answer:
iogann1982 [59]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: Alycia only established some of the necessary conditions for a congruence criterion.

Step-by-step explanation: Two triangles are <u>congruent</u> if their corresponding sides or/and corresponding angles are the same.

There are 5 ways to find out if the triangles are congruent.

The one Alycia used seems to be the one called <u>Side-Angle-Side</u>, which states that if two sides and its included angle is equal to the corresponding sides and angle of the other triangle, they are congruent.

For triangles ΔOPQ and ΔSTR to be congruent, using that theorem:

1) ∠O = ∠S

2) OP = TS

And

3) RS = OQ

So, Alycia's error is that she didn't prove RS = OQ, which would definitively  conclude that both triangles are congruent.

The length of the sides of the base of the largest of the Great Pyramids of Giza, near Cairo, Egypt, is 230 m. This square pyram
Lorico [155]
For this case we have that the volume of the square pyramid is given by:
 V = ((L ^ 2) * (h)) / 3
 Where,
 L: side of the base
 h: height
 Substituting values we have:
 V = ((230 ^ 2) * (147)) / 3
 V = 2592100 m ^ 3
 Answer:
 
the volume of the pyramid is:
 
V = 2592100 m ^ 3

Rearrange the formula A = \pi r ^ ( 2) for r
tatyana61 [14]
Consider re-writing this formula as "A = pi*r^2."  The backslash symbol "\" is unnecessary.

If A = pi*r^2, and we wish to solve for r, then divide both sides by pi:

A/pi = r^2

Taking the square root of both sides,   sqrt(A/pi) = r (r must be positive in this situation).
