Segment EG is an angle bisector of angle FGH. Noah wrote a proof to show that triangle HEG is congruent to triangle FEG. Noah's

proof is not correct. Which line of Noah's proof is incorrect, and why1. Side EG is congruent to side EG because they're the same segment.
2. Angle EGH is congruent to angle EGF because segment EG is an angle bisector of angle FGH.

3. Angle HEG is congruent to angle FEG because segment EG is an angle bisector of angle FGH.

4. By the Angle-Side-Angle Triangle Congruence Theorem, triangle HEG is congruent to triangle FEG.


Line 2 is incorrect; there is not enough information given to state this.
Line 2 is incorrect; there is not enough information given to state this.

Line 2 is incorrect; even though segment EG is a bisector, angles EGH and FGH are not necessarily congruent.
Line 2 is incorrect; even though segment , EG, is a bisector, angles , EGH, and , FGH , are not necessarily congruent.

Line 3 is incorrect; we don't know anything about the lengths of HG, FG, HE, and EF, so this line is not valid based on the given information.
Line 3 is incorrect; we don't know anything about the lengths of , HG, , , FG, , , HE, , and , EF, , so this line is not valid based on the given information.

Line 4 is incorrect; Angle-Side-Angle is not a valid congruence theorem.
Line 4 is incorrect; Angle-Side-Angle is not a valid congruence theorem.

Answer:

Line 3 is incorrect; we don't know anything about the lengths of HG, FG, HE, and EF, so this line is not valid based on the given information.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the Noah's poof of the construction, segment EG would divide angle FGH into two equal parts, which makes line 2 to be valid. i.e <EGH ≅ <EGF. And it can also be observed that line 4 is a valid theorem in proving the congruent nature of triangles.

But line 3 is not valid because of the condition of the statement. Furthermore, segments FG, EG, HG, HE and FE may not be congruent. Thus, the condition of the statement in line 3 is incorrect.

zalisa [80]

Answer:

300. In this case, it's very easy to do this percentage inflation. Since 20 is a multiple of 100, and we want to know the 100%, you just multiply the 20 by 5 to make it 100. Along with this, you multiply the 60 by 5 as well, which gives you 300.

The weight of a nickel is 80% of a quarter. If a nickel weighs 5 grams how much does a quarter weigh?
muminat

Answer:

Weight of a quarter  = 6.25 grams

Weight of a dime  = 2.5 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of a nickel is  80%

The weight of a quarter  or the weight of a nickel is 5 grams or weight of a quarter =50.8 = 6.25 grams

Weight of a dime = 50% = 12 (weight of nickel) = 52 = 2.5 grams
