The given triangles ΔDOA and ΔABC are right triangles that have a

common vertex at point <em>A</em>.

  • <u>ΔDOA is similar to ΔABC, and </u><u>∠AEC</u><u> is equal to </u><u>∠ABC,</u><u> therefore, ∠AEC = ∠ODA</u>

Reasons:

The given parameters are;

The diameter of the circle with center <em>O</em> = AB

DO ⊥ AB (DO is perpendicular to AB)

Required:

Prove that ∠AEC = ∠ODA

A two column proof is presented as follows;

Statement {}                                                 Reason

1. AB is the diameter of circle     <em> </em>{}                 1. Given

2. DO is perpendicular to AB <em> </em>{}                     2. Given

3. ∠DOA = 90° <em> </em>{}                                             3. Definition of DO ⊥ AB

4. ∠BCA = 90°  <em> </em>{}                                             4. Thales theorem

5. ∠BCA ≅ ∠BCA <em> </em>{}                                         5. Reflexive property

6. ΔDOA ~ ΔABC  <em> </em>{}                                        6. AA similarity postulate

7. ∠ABC ≅ ∠ODA  <em> </em>{}                                       7. CASTC

8. ∠ABC = ∠ODA  <em> </em>{}                                        8. Definition of congruency

9. ∠AEC ≅ ∠ABC  <em> </em>{}                                        9. Angles in the same segment

10. ∠AEC = ∠ABC  <em> </em>{}                                       10. Definition of congruency

11. ∠AEC = ∠ODA  <em> </em>{}                                        11. Transitive property of equality

In statement 6, ΔDOA is similar to ΔABC by Angle-Angle, AA, similarity

postulate, therefore, the three angles of ΔDOA are congruent to the three

angles of ΔABC.

Therefore ∠ABC ≅ ∠ODA by Corresponding Angles of Similar Triangles

are Congruent, CASTC.

If each interior angle of a regular polygon measures 144º, how many sides does it have?
12345 [234]

Answer:

Brainliest!

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the interior angle is 144 degree, each exterior angle is 180 - 144 = 36 degrees

number of sides = 360/36 = 10

The polygon is decagon with 10 sides
