Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: SAS = side - angle -side congruence
SSS = side - side - side congruence
Discussion
:
In Plane Geometry, identical triangles are said to be "congruent". There are several ways, depending upon the information you have, to prove 2 triangles are congruent.
In one approach ("SSS") if you can show that 2 triangles have identical side lengths, then the triangles are congruent. (A triangle has 3 sides, hence "SSS" -- 3 S's; 3 sides, get it?)
In another approach ("SAS") if you can show that 2 sides, and the angle included between those sides, in one triangle are identical to the sides and included angle in another triangle, then the triangles are congruent
It's easier to understand this with a picture or diagram than in words. Please review the SSS, SAS picture in your textbook

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first term is a and common difference is d.
<u>The nth term is:</u>
<u>We have:</u>
<u>The difference of these terms is:</u>
- (a + 8d) - (a + 5d) = 16 - 15
- 3d = 1
- d = 1/3
<u>Then the first term is:</u>
- a + 5*1/3 = 15
- a = 15 - 5/3 = 13 1/3
<u>The nth term equation is:</u>
- aₙ = 13 1/3 + 1/3(n - 1) = 1/3n + 13
<u>If the nth term is 22, find n:</u>
- 1/3n + 13 = 22
- 1/3n = 22 - 13
- 1/3n = 9
- n = 9*3
- n = 27
Answer: 81, 243, 729
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>STEP ONE: Find a pattern in the sequence</u>
3 ÷ 1 = 3
9 ÷ 3 = 3
27 ÷ 9 = 3
As we can see from the given sequence, each number multiplies 3 to get the next term.
<u>STEP TWO: Find the next three terms</u>
27 × 3 = 81
81 × 3 = 243
243 × 3 = 729
Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:
i think thats correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
So, we have:

Recall that secant is simply the reciprocal of cosine. So we can:

Now, recall the unit circle. Since cosine is negative, it must be in Quadrants II and/or III. The numerator is the square root of 3. The denominator is 2. The whole thing is negative. Therefore, this means that 150 or 5π/6 is a candidate. Therefore, due to reference angles, 180+30=210 or 7π/6 is also a candidate.
Therefore, the possible values for theta is
5π/6 +2nπ
and
7π/6 + 2nπ
