∠A and ∠B are supplementary, and ∠A and ∠C are supplementary. Which conclusion is valid? Select one: A. ∠B and ∠C are supplement
zysi [14]

Option D is the correct answer.

Answer:

D. ∠B and ∠C are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, ∠A and ∠B are supplementary.

Therefore,

∠A + ∠B = 180°.....(1)

Since, ∠A and ∠C are supplementary.

Therefore,

∠A + ∠C = 180°.....(2)

From equations (1) & (2)

∠A + ∠B = ∠A + ∠C

=> ∠B = ∠C

Hence, ∠B and ∠C are congruent.

Jonathan's age is 1/3 Belinda's age now in 12 years Belinda will be m years old write an algebraic expression to represent Brend
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

5 years from now, Johnathan will be (5 + 4) = 9 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Belinda's age = x

Jonathan's age =1/3 x

In 12 years, Belinda will be m years old :

Belinda's age now = x

Jonathan's age 5 years from now, if m = 36

Belinda's age in 12 years, Belinda's age = m

x + 12 = 36

x = 36 - 12

x = 24 years

Hence Belinda's age now is 24

Jonathan's age now is (1/3) * 12 = 4 years

Hence, 5 years from now, Johnathan will be (5 + 4) = 9 years
