Answer:

If AB and CD intersect at point P such that P is between A and B and is also between C and D, then ∠APC and ∠BPD are a pair of vertical angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram is a sketch of a counterexample. Notice that ∠APC and ∠BPD are actually the same angles and are not vertical angles.

If P is between A and B and is also between C and D, then ∠APC and ∠BPD are vertical angles. Then the statement can be completed as:

If AB and CD intersect at point P such that P is between A and B and is also between C and D, then ∠APC and ∠BPD are a pair of vertical angles.

Consider the quadratic equation ax^2+bx+5=0, where a, b, and c are rational and the quadratic has two didstinct zeros if one zor

erica [24]

Answer:

It can either be rational or irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic equation ax²+bx+5 = 0, to get the zeros of the function, we will factorize the function to have;

ax²+bx = -5

x(ax+b) = -5

x = -5 and ax+b = -5

From the second function we have;

ax+b = -5

ax = -5-b

x = -5-b/a

This shows that the other value of x can be rational or irrational depending on the values of a and b

What is the answer to > solve 4cos (theta/3) -2 = 0, over [0, 4pi)

Vesna [10]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

@ = pi/3 (or 60 degrees) or @ = 7 pi/3 (or 420 degrees)

Discussion:

Let "@' denote the angle "theta". We are asked to find @ in the interval [0, 4 pi)

where

4cos(@) - 2 = 0. Adding 2 to both sides

4 cos(@) - 2 +2 = 2 =>

4 cos(@) = 2 Divide both sides by 4

cos(@) = 2/4 = 0.5

This implies that @ = pi/3 (or 60 degrees) or @ = (pi/3 + 2pi) = 7 pi/3 (or 420 degrees)

Thank you,

MrB
