Given That ABCD Is A Parallelogram With Diagonals Intersecting At M. Segment PQ Is Drawn Such That P

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

we thus have enough informnation to prove that the two triangles are congruent. Because of thism, one side of the triangles, Pm which is the congruent side to that of PQ must be equal as well and

PM = QM

Step-by-step explanation:

because it's a parrallelogram, Ad = BC and AB = DC.

P passes through both  AB and DC on a diagonal, angles created by P have oppoiste exterior angles of eachother.

the diagonals of AC create congruent angles at DMC and AMB and because P is cutting through them, the angles P cuts at DMQ and QMC are equal to that of AMP and PMB

that being said, we now see that the angles of APM triangle and AMC triangol are equal and because the diagonal of BD is is being cut by AC, which AD is parralel to BC  and AB to Dc, we know now that lines AM and MC are congruent

we thus have enough informnation to prove that the two triangles are congruent. Because of thism, one side of the triangles, Pm which is the congruent side to that of PQ must be equal as well and

thus PM = QM

Answer 2

The alternate interior angles formed by the parallel sides and a common

transversal are equal, such that ΔPBM and ΔQDM are congruent.

Correct response;

PM is congruent to QM  by CPCTC

How is the congruency of the segments determined?

Therefore;

PM is congruent to QM by Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent, CPCTC.

To write a fraction as a percentage the easiest method is if we can change the denominator to 100.

#3/40 xx2.5/2.5 = 7.5/100 = 7.5%#

In many cases that method does not work,

what is the solution to the system y= 2x-3 y= -x+3

Answers

You would have to step up your problem like this 2x-3=-x+3, then you add -x to both sides. So, the problem will look like this 3x-3=3 then add to both sides. The ending problem will look like this 3x=6 then divide 3 to both sides then your answer is 2! Hopefully this is correct!

The first step that we must take before attempting to solve almost any problem is to determine what the problem statement is asking us to do and what they are giving to us to help finish the problem.  Looking at this question we can see that they have requested for us to solve for x and we were provided with a figure.

After understanding what the problem is asking for us to do we can attempt to solve the problem.  We can see that there are two angles on a straight line and this is known as supplementary angles.  Let us define what supplementary angles are.

Supplementary Angles ⇒ Supplementary Angles are two angles that are formed on a straight line causing them to add up to 180 degrees. Therefore, an expression can be made where the two angles add up to 180 and it can be solved for the unknown.

In this case we don't have a missing angle but rather a variable that makes up each of the angles.  Using a similar concept we can create an expression with 4x - 6 and 2x and have them combined to equal to 180.  After that we can solve for the unknown which in turn would give us x.

Create an expression

[tex]Angle_1 + Angle_2 = 180[/tex][tex](2x) + (4x - 6) = 180[/tex]

Combine like terms

[tex]2x + 4x - 6 = 180[/tex][tex](2x + 4x) - 6 = 180[/tex][tex](6x) - 6 = 180[/tex]

Add 6 to both sides

[tex](6x) - 6 + 6 = 180 + 6[/tex][tex](6x) = 180 + 6[/tex][tex]6x = 186[/tex]

Divide both sides by 6

[tex]\frac{6x}{6} = \frac{186}{6}[/tex][tex]x = \frac{186}{6}[/tex][tex]x = 31[/tex]

Therefore, after creating an expression and then simplifying it down all the way to just have the value of x equal to something we were able to determine that the unknown variable of x is equal to 31.

[tex]\huge\text{Hey there!}[/tex]


[tex]\text{Your equation: }\rm{(2x) + (4x - 6) = 180^\circ}\\\large\text{SOLVING for the x-value}\\\rm{2x + 4x - 6 = 180^\circ}\\\large\text{COMBINE the LIKE TERMS}\\\rm{(2x + 4x) + (-6) = 180^\circ}\\\rm{2x + 4x - 6 = 180^\circ}\\\rm{6x - 6 = 180^\circ}\\\large\text{ADD 6 to BOTH SIDES}\\\rm{6x - 6 + 6 = 180 + 6}\\\large\text{SIMPLIFY IT!}\\\rm{6x = 180 + 6}\\\rm{6x = 186}\\\large\text{DIVIDE 6 to BOTH SIDES}\\\rm{\dfrac{6x}{6} = \dfrac{186}{6}}\\\large\text{SIMPLIFY IT!}\\\rm{x = \dfrac{186}{6}}\\\rm{x= 31}[/tex]

for graphing make sure to shade the right portion and to make the line dotted like (— — — —)
the red is y>8x-4, the blue is y>-1/2x+1/2

2x-.25y < 1 is equal to 2x-1/4y < 1
multiply each side by 4:
8x-y < 4
add y to each side:
8x < 4+y
subtract 4 from each side:
8x-4 < y
rewrite:
y > 8x-4

4x+8y > 4
divide both sides by 8:
1/2x+y > 1/2
subtract -1/2x from each side:
y > -1/2x + 1/2

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

To get ABCDE to A'B'C'D'E', you need to reflect the shape across line M. Then to go from A'B'C'D'E' to A''B''C''D''E'', you need to rotate about point C 180⁰.

It was first reflected across the x axis which would be line m. And since point c is the same place for the two bottom images , after the reflection it was rotated on point c.

The answer should be the 4th choice
