<h3>Answer:  38</h3>

=================================================

Explanation:

The square markers tell us that we have right angles (aka 90 degree angles) at angle XYZ and XWZ. They are congruent by definition.

Another pair of congruent angles is WXZ and YXZ which are the left-most angles of each triangle.

The sides XZ and XZ are congruent to each other (reflexive property)

Based on those three previous paragraphs, we can use the Angle Angle Side (AAS) congruence theorem to prove that the triangles are congruent.

Specifically we could write \triangle XYZ \cong \triangle XWZ. The order of the letters is important so we know which letters pair up (eg: Y and W pair up as the 90 degree angles).

--------------------------------------

In short, the triangles are identical copies of each other. The upper triangle reflects over the line XZ to get the lower triangle, and vice versa. This means the smaller corresponding pieces must also be the same.

In this case, WZ = YZ = 38

Use prime factorization to reduce the fraction 36/180
laila [671]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

36 = 6* 6 = 2* 3 * 2* 3 = 2*2*3*3

180 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 5 = 2 * 2 * 3*3*5

\frac{36}{180}= \frac{2*2*3*3}{2*2*3*3*5} =  \frac{1}{5}

prisoha [69]

Answer:

a ) y = 1 and x = -1

d) y = 5 and x = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2><u>Substitution method</u></h2><h2><u>Question a</u></h2>

y = x+ 2

y = 2x + 3

<em>we can make the first formula in terms of x , so we can place in into the second formula</em>

y = x + 2

x = y -  2

now put y - 2 where x is in the second equation

y = 2x + 3

y = 2(y - 2) + 3

y = 2y - 4 +3

now solve

4 - 3 = 2y -y

y = 1

since y = 1 we can find what x is by putting into the first formula

y = x +2

x = y - 2

x = (1) -2

x = -1

<h3><u>hence y = 1 and x = -1 </u></h3><h3><u /></h3><h2><u>Question d</u></h2>

y = 2x + 6

y = 4 - 2x

<em>we can make the first formula in terms of x , so we can place in into the second formula</em>

y = 2x + 6

y - 6 = 2x

x = (y-6)/ 2

now place (y-6)/2 where x is in the second formula

y = 4 -2x

y = 4 - 2 (\frac{y - 6}{2})

now solve

the multiplication by 2 and division by 2 are cancelled out

hence making the simplified equation as:

y = 4 - y + 6

2y = 4 + 6

2y = 10

y = 5

now place this into the first equation

y = 2x + 6

y - 6 = 2x

x = (y-6)/ 2

x = (5-6)/2

x = -1/2

<h3><u>hence y = 5 and x = -1/2</u></h3>

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

1, 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates would be Oak station(8,8) and Pine Station(-6,-7).

The midpoints would be

=[8+(-6)]/2 , [8+(-7)]/2

=2/2 , 1/2

=1, 1/2
