Δ DUM Δ MAP
hypotenuse: 15 2y-3
short leg: 12 0.5x + 6
y = 9 ⇒ 2(9) - 3 = 18 - 3 = 15 Congruent with the hypotenuse of Δ DUM
x = 12 ⇒ 0.5(12) + 6 = 6 + 6 = 12 Congruent with the short leg of Δ DUM
SAS postulate states that two triangles are congruent if 2 of its sides and 1 angle have equal measure. Both the hypotenuse and short leg are equal in measure. Thus, both triangles are congruent with each other.
If they all painted at the same rate the equation is this
mothers 8
daughters 12 at 220 sq ft
mothers 6
daughters 8 at 152 sq ft
220 +152 =372 divided by 34 (because they all painted at the same rate)=10.94 sq ft they each painted
Answer:
See description below.
Step-by-step explanation:
To choose the correct equation, find the slope of the line on the graph. Identify two points on the line. Then subtract to find their rate of change using the slope formula.
When you know the slope, find the negative reciprocal. For example, if the slope is 2/1 then the negative reciprocal is -1/2. This is the slope of a perpendicular line to a line with slope 2. Choose the equation which has this same slope.
Example:
y = 2x -1
y= -1/2 +5
What numbers are inside both circles?
The answer is A.
