AB is congruent to DE because segment DE was constructed so that DE = AB. BC is congruent to EF because segment EF was construct

ed so that EF = BC. Since ADEF is a right triangle, DE+ EF? = DF? by the We are given that AB + BC2 = AC? Since DE = AB and EF = BC, DE2 + EF2 = AC? by the Also, DF2 = AC2 by the Taking the square root of both sides of the equation gives DF = AC. So, AC is congruent to DF by the definition of congruence. Applying the AABC - ADEF. By CPCTC, ZB _ZE. Therefore ZB is a right angle and AABC is a right triangle.

DE = AB, EF = BC and AC = DF, hence triangle ABC is congruent to triangle DEF.

<h3>Congruent shape</h3>

Two shapes are said to be congruent if they have the same shape, all their corresponding angles and sides are congruent to one another.

Given that DE = AB and BC = EF.

In right triangle DEF, using Pythagoras:

DF² = DE² + EF²

Also, In right triangle ABC, using Pythagoras:

AC² = AB² + BC²

But DE = AB and EF = BC, hence:

AC² = DE² + EF²

AC² = DF²

Taking square root of both sides, hence:

AC = DF

Since DE = AB, EF = BC and AC = DF, hence triangle ABC is congruent to triangle DEF.

What is the circumference of a round pizza with an area of 36 square inches?
larisa [96]
Knowing that your area is: A= \pi  r^{2}=36  in^{2} you can find the radius as:
r= \sqrt{ \frac{36}{ \pi } } =3.4 in;
With this you can evaluate the circumference as:
C=2 \pi r=2*3.14*3.4=21.3 in

Scientists are studying the DNA of five groups of cats, both wild and domesticated. Each group has a different number of cats, a
sineoko [7]

Answer:

A, 2500 cats

Step-by-step explanation

If the largest group has 502 cats, and the numbers are in sequence then the second group will be 502 -1 = 501 .

the third group will be 501- 1=

500

The fourth group will be 500 -1= 499

And the last group will be 499- 1= 498

There fore the total number of cats in the study is

502 + 501 + 500 + 499 + 498 = 2500
