Based on the SAS similarity theorem, both triangles are similar.

Similarity statement is: ΔSTV ~ ΔPQR by SAS Similarity Theorem.

<h3>What are Similar Polygons?</h3>

Similar Polygons have different size but the same shape, and as such, the ratio of their corresponding side lengths are equal, while their corresponding angles are congruent.

Based on the SAS similarity theorem, two triangles are similar to each other if they have two pairs of corresponding sides that are proportional and an included pair of angles that are congruent.

In ΔSTV and ΔPQR:

m∠S ≅ m∠P = 86° (one pair of included congruent angles)

ST/PQ = SV/PR = 0.67 (proportional sides).

Therefore, based on the SAS similarity theorem, both triangles are similar.

Similarity statement is: ΔSTV ~ ΔPQR by SAS Similarity Theorem.

3. Given: BAM is a right angle. If mBAM=4x+2, then solve for the value of x.
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

3. x = 17

4. a. m<NMP = 48°

b. m<NMP = 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

3. Given that <BAM = right angle, and

m<BAM = 4x + 22, set 90° equal to 4x + 22 to find x.

4x + 22 = 90

Subtract 22 from both sides

4x + 22 - 22 = 90 - 22

4x = 68

Divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = 68/4

x = 17

4. a. m<NMQ = right angle (given)

m<PMQ = 42° (given)

m<PMQ + m<NMP = m<NMQ (angle addition postulate)

42 + m<NMP = 90 (substitution)

m<NMP = 90 - 42 (subtracting 42 from each side)

m<NMP = 48°

b. m<NMQ = right angle (given)

m<NMP = 2*m<PMQ

Let m<PMQ = x

m<NMP = 2*x = 2x

2x + x = 90° (Angle addition postulate)

3x = 90

x = 30 (dividing both sides by 3)

m<PMQ = x = 30°

m<NMP = 2*m<PMQ = 2*30

m<NMP = 60°
