<u>Answer-</u>

<em>The value of y is </em><em>6 units</em><em>.</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

Given ∆ABC ≅ ∆GEF

If two triangles are congruent, then the corresponding sides are also congruent.

So,

EF = BC, GF = AC

Putting the values,

\Rightarrow x-y=4 --------------1

\Rightarrow x-8=2

\Rightarrow x=10 --------------------2

Putting the values of x in equation 1,

\Rightarrow 10-y=4

\Rightarrow y=10-4=6

Therefore, the value of y is 6 units.

Prove that a line that divides two sides of a triangle proportionally is parallel to the third side. Be sure to create and name
sattari [20]

Answer:

Given: A triangle ABC and a line DE parallel to BC.

To prove: A line parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other two sides proportionally.

Proof: Consider ΔABC and DE be the line parallel to Bc, then from ΔABC and ΔADE, we have

∠A=∠A (Common)

∠ADE=∠ABC (Corresponding angles)

Thus, by AA similarity, ΔABC is similar to ΔADE, therefore

AB/AD= AC/AE

⇒AD+DB/AD = AE+EC/AE

⇒1+DB/AD = 1+ EC/AE

⇒DB/AD = EC/AE

Therefore, a line parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other two sides proportionally.

⇒Therefore Proved

1. Darnell reads at a constant rate
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Darnell can read 1,715 words in 7 minutes

Step by step Explanation:

1. I need to find out how many words he reads in 1 minute. Divide 735 by 3, my answer is 245

245

______

3)735

6 bring down the 3 to make 13

-_____

1 3

12 bring down the 5 to make 15

-______

1 5

15

___________

0

2. multiply 735 by 2 cause he reads 735 words in 3 minutes and we are tryna find out how many words he reads in 7 minutes. 3×2=6, so 735+735 (735×2) equals 1470

3. Add 245, for that extra minute that we missed. my answer is 1,715 words in 7 minutes

The positive difference between the two roots of the quadratic equation $3x^2 - 7x - 8 = 0$ can be written as $\frac{\sqrt{m}}{n
Sergio [31]

3x² - 7x - 8 = 0

We're asked about square roots so we won't try to factor; we'll go right for the quadratic formula,

x = ( 7 ± √(7² - 4(3)(-8))    )/(2(3)) = (7 ± √(49+96))/6 = 7/6 ± √145/6

145 = 5×29, so no square factors.  The positive difference is

d =  (7/6 + √145/6) - (7/6 - √145/6) = 2√145/6 = √145/3

so m=145, n=3 for a sum of
