Its an indirect proof, so 3 steps :-
1) you start with the opposite of wat u need to prove
2) arrive at a contradiction
3) concludeReport · 29/6/2015261
since you wanto prove 'diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other', you start wid the opposite of above statement, like below :- step1 : Since we want to prove 'diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other', lets start by assuming the opposite, that the diagonals of parallelogram dont bisect each other.Report · 29/6/2015261
Since, we assumed that the diagonals dont bisect each other,
OC≠OA
OD≠OBReport · 29/6/2015261
Since, OC≠OA, △OAD is not congruent to △OCBReport · 29/6/2015261
∠AOD≅∠BOC as they are vertical angles,
∠OAD≅∠OCB they are alternate interior angles
AD≅BC, by definition of parallelogram
so, by AAS, △OAD is congruent to △OCBReport · 29/6/2015261
But, thats a contradiction as we have previously established that those triangles are congruentReport · 29/6/2015261
step3 :
since we arrived at a contradiction, our assumption is wrong. so, the opposite of our assumption must be correct. so diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other.
Answer:
idk bro
Step-by-step explanation:
There are three kinds of statement that we could construct base on the given where as Vertical angels are congruent. First is converse: If angle 1 is 90 degree then angle 2 is 90. Second is Inverse: If angle 2 is not 90 then angle 1 is not. Third is Contrapositive: If angle 2 is not 90 then angle 1 is not 90 also.
Answer:
x=-5 or x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
when multiplying anything by 0, the answer will be zero
In this case, one of the two factors has to be equal to 0
start by splitting into
(x+5) = 0
solve the equation
subtract 5 from both sides
x = -5
now, repeat for the other binomial
x-3 = 0
add 3 to both sides
x=3
