2. 90°
3. 40°
4. 45°
5. 45°
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given:</u> ΔABC,
CD⊥AB,
m∠A=50°,
m∠ACB=85°
<u>Solution:</u>
1. ∠ADC is a right ange, because CD⊥AB, so
2. ∠CDB is a right ange, because CD⊥AB, so
3. Consider triangle ACD. The sum of the measures of all interior angles is always 180°, so
4. By Angle Addition Postulate,
5. Consider triangle ABC. The sum of the measures of all interior angles is always 180°, so
It is equivalent I believe...hope this helps!
Answer:
a = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!! This is how you do it!!
a - 7 = 3 (2)
a - 7 = 6
+ 7. +7
a = 13
Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use similar triangles and ratios. Put the small triangle side over the large triangle side.
9cm 3x -20
---------- = ---------------- We need to add the sides to get to the larger triangle
72+9 cm 3x-20 + 56
We can cross multiply to solve
9 * (3x-20+56) = (72+9) * (3x-20)
Simplify
9*(3x+36) = 81*(3x-20)
Distribute
27x +324 = 243x -1620
Subtract 27x from each side
27x-27x +324 = 243x-27x -1620
324 = 216x-1620
Add 1620 to each side
324+1620 = 216x
1944 = 216x
Divide each side by 216
1944/216 = 216x/216
9=x
Diagram:
M------------O-------------N
................. ^ midpoint
Obviously if O is the *mid*point, then it is exactly halfway between M and N. That also means it has bisected the segment into two equal parts.
On one side you have MO (or OM, if you like)
On the other side you have ON.
In order for O to be the midpoint:
ON = OM
