Answer:
1. Trapezoid
2. Kite
3. Square, Rhombus
Step-by-step explanation:
Given - Use the properties of quadrilaterals to complete the statements.
To find - A ..... has exactly one pair of parallel sides.
A ....... must have two pairs of adjacent sides congruent.
A ........ must have all congruent sides.
Proof -
A Trapezoid has exactly one pair of parallel sides.
A Kite must have two pairs of adjacent sides congruent.
A Square, Rhombus must have all congruent sides.
Reason -
- A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides.
- A kite is a quadrilateral with exactly two pairs of adjacent congruent sides.
- A rhombus is a parallelogram with four congruent sides.
- A square can be defined as a rhombus which is also a rectangle . In other words, a square is a parallelogram with four congruent sides and four right angles.
Answer:
The distance between the base of the tree and the flower is 9m
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we have to paint a picture.
The flower is on the ground, the height of the tree is 12m.
The distance from the nest to the flower on the floor is 15m
Indisputably, what we have is a right angled triangle, with the height being 12m, the length of the hypotenuse being 15 and we are asked to calculate the adjacent which represents the distance from the base of the tree to the flower
To get this distance, we simply apply the Pythagoras’ theorem which states that the square of the hypotenuse(longest side of the triangle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
Thus mathematically, we know that our hypotenuse is 15m and the height is 12m
The length we are to calculate is the adjacent and it is equal to;
15^2 - 12^2
= 225 - 144
= 81
The length is thus
√(81) = 9m
