The <u>congruency theorem</u> gives you an opportunity to prove that <u>two triangles</u> are <u>congruent</u>.
Consider triangles WUT and VTU. In these triangles:
- WU≅VT (given);
- ∠T≅∠U, m∠T=m∠U=90° (from the diagram);
- side TU is common.
Note that triangles WUT and VTU are right triangles, because m∠T=m∠U=90°. Side TU is common leg and sides WU and VT are hypotenuses.
HL theorem states: if the hypotenuse (WU) and one leg (TU) of a right triangle (ΔWUT) are congruent to the hypotenuse (VT) and one leg (TU) of another right triangle (ΔVTU), then the triangles are congruent.
Answer: correct choice is B
Answer:
X=3
Step-by-step explanation:
If you do the problem backwards 14-5=9 and 9/3 is 3, so x=3 plug it in and check if it is correct, 3*3+5=14
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is a balance then both sides are the same, that is equal.
The 4 weights represented by circles can be written as 4w, then
4w = 25 ← equation representing the situation
Divide both sides by 4 to find w
w = 25 ÷ 4 = 6.25 ← the weight of 1 circle
