The information given is not enough to prove that ΔGH ≅ ΔRST through the SSS congruence theorem.

<h3>What is the Side-side-side Congruence Theorem (SSS)?</h3>

The side-side-side congruence theorem (SSS) states that if two triangles have three pairs of corresponding sides that are congruent to each other, then both triangles are similar to each other.

We are only given that both triangles have:

  • 2 pairs of corresponding congruent angles -  ∠G ≅ ∠R and ∠H ≅ ∠S.
  • 1 pair of corresponding congruent sides - GI ≅ segment RT

Therefore, the information given is not enough to prove that ΔGH ≅ ΔRST through the SSS congruence theorem.

Answer:

C = (2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

B = (10 ; 2)

M = (6 ; 2)

C = (x ; y )

|___________|___________|

B (10;2)            M (6;2)             C ( x; y)

So:

dBM = dMC

√[(2-2)^2 + (6-10)^2] = √[(y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2]

(2-2)^2 - (6-10)^2 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2

0 + (-4)^2 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2

16 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2

16 - (x - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2

Also:

2*dBM = dBC

2*√[(2-2)^2 + (6-10)^2] = √[(y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2]

4*[(0)^2 + (-4)^2] = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2

4*(16) = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2

64 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2

64 = 16 - (x - 6)^2 + (x - 10)^2

48 = (x - 10)^2 - (x - 6)^2

48 = x^2 - 20*x + 100 - x^2 + 12*x - 36

48 = - 20*x + 100 + 12*x - 36

8*x = 16

x = 2

Thus:

16 - (x - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2

16 - (2 - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2

16 - (-4)^2 = (y-2)^2

16 - 16 = (y-2)^2

0 =  (y-2)^2

0 = y - 2

2 = y

⇒ C = (2,2)

What does x and y =??????
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

x=30. y=60

Step-by-step explanation:

DG is a straight segment so it sums to 180 degrees. ECG is a right angle so 90 degrees. The rest is described as 2x and x. So 3x=90 degrees. x=30. Eh is also a straight segment. since we know x, we know that ECD is 60 degrees. So y+y=120 degrees. 2y=120. y=60.

PLEASE HELP!!!!
Semmy [17]
You should put 4 as x, -3 as y and a as slope to make an equation :
- 3 =  a \times 4
then you can find the slope and the correct equation of the line :

the slope is :
- 3 = 4a \\ a =  \frac{ - 3}{4}
so the equation of the line will be
y =  \frac{ - 3}{4}  x
D is true
