Solution: if BC = 15 - 6 = 9

Use the converse of triangle proportionality theorem

AD/DC = 8/12 = 2/3
BE/EC = 6/9 = 2/3

Answer: yes, AD/DC =BE/EC = 2/3, so DB||AB

Set up a system of equations and then use your calculator to solve: In triangle ABC, the sum of angles and c is equal to three t
aalyn [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

angle A = 40

angle B = 60

angle C = we don't know.

A + B + C = 180

C = 180 - A - B

C = 180 - 40 - 60

C = 80

40 + 60 + 80 = 180

180 = 180...It checks!

Help with homework please!!!!!!
melamori03 [73]
The one with the word bank is in this order, right angle, acute angle, straight angle and then obtuse then you try to guess an estimate a right angle is always a 90 degree angle and a straight angle is always 180 degrees the given part of the angle would be subtracted by 180 for example 180-130 which means X= 50 degrees

A prize wheel is divided into 12 equally likely spaces labeled 1 to 12.
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Events E and F are independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

E = {multiple of 3}  = {3, 6, 9, 12}

P(E) = 4/12

F = {even number}  = {2, 4, 6, 8. 10, 12}

P(F) = 6/12

E and F = {even and multiple of 3} = {6, 12}

P(E∩F) = 2/12

In order for two events to be independent the following relationship must be true:

P(E)*P(F) = P(E\cap F)

Testing this property:

P(E)*P(F) = \frac{4}{12}*\frac{6}{12}=\frac{24}{144}=\frac{1}{6}    \\P(E\cap F) = \frac{2}{12}=\frac{1}{6} \\P(E)*P(F) = P(E\cap F)

The relationship holds true, thus events E and F are independent.

What is the root of this equation? <br>2x^2 - 4x + 9 = 0​
faust18 [17]

Answer:

x = 1 + i sqrt(7/2) or x = 1 - i sqrt(7/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

2 x^2 - 4 x + 9 = 0

Divide both sides by 2:

x^2 - 2 x + 9/2 = 0

Subtract 9/2 from both sides:

x^2 - 2 x = -9/2

Add 1 to both sides:

x^2 - 2 x + 1 = -7/2

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x - 1)^2 = -7/2

Take the square root of both sides:

x - 1 = i sqrt(7/2) or x - 1 = -i sqrt(7/2)

Add 1 to both sides:

x = 1 + i sqrt(7/2) or x - 1 = -i sqrt(7/2)

Add 1 to both sides:

Answer:  x = 1 + i sqrt(7/2) or x = 1 - i sqrt(7/2)
