Answer:
No, similar triangles cannot contain a pair of parallel lines. Yes, because || . Yes, because ∠QUR ≅ ∠TUS (vertical angles) and ∠R ≅ ∠S (alternate interior angles).
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The question is asking to solve a problem that'll "add up", or in other words, makes sense; through the use of Trigonometric functions. The leaning ladder is the hypotenuse of 17ft, adjacent to that is a wall that measures 16.5ft above the ground. The angle both sides make must be <=70°. The function here is Opposite over Hypotenuse i.e 16.5/17 . We use the inverse operation of Sin which is Sin^(-1) to find if the angle is < or = to 70°. Using a calculator, we find the angle to be 76.06°, which is > more than, 70°.
Thus, the ladder will not be safe for its height and therefore won't make sense.
Answer:
c = b -d/a
Step-by-step explanation:
a(b-c)=d
Divide each side by a
a(b-c)/a = d/a
b-c = d/a
Subtract b from each side
b-c-b = d/a -b
-c = d/a -b
Multiply each side by -1
c = -d/a+b
c = b -d/a
