Which graph represents the function f (x) = StartFraction 1 Over x EndFraction minus 1?

Absolute value of -12 and -15

kvasek [131]

Absolute value- the amount a number is away from zero. With this information, we can conclude,

|-12| = 12

|-15| = 15

Polygons are a subcategory of parallograms

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Category:Parallelograms. ... A parallelogram is a quadrilateral whose opposite sides are parallel to each other, and whose sides may or may not all be the same length.

We know many quadrilaterals by their special shapes and properties, like squares. Remember, if you see the word quadrilateral, it does not necessarily mean a figure with special properties like a square or rectangle! In word problems, be careful not to assume that a quadrilateral has parallel sides or equal sides unless that is stated.

Special Quadrilaterals

A parallelogram has two parallel pairs of opposite sides.

A rectangle has two pairs of opposite sides parallel, and four right angles. It is also a parallelogram, since it has two pairs of parallel sides.

A square has two pairs of parallel sides, four right angles, and all four sides are equal. It is also a rectangle and a parallelogram.

A rhombus is defined as a parallelogram with four equal sides. Is a rhombus always a rectangle? No, because a rhombus does not have to have 4 right angles.

Trapezoids only have one pair of parallel sides. It's a type of quadrilateral that is not a parallelogram. (British name: Trapezium)

Kites have two pairs of adjacent sides that are equal.

We can use a Venn diagram to help us group the types of quadrilaterals.

A Venn diagram uses overlapping circles to show relationships between groups of objects. All "quadrilaterals" can be separated into three sub-groups: general quadrilaterals, parallelograms and trapezoids.

Is a rectangle always a rhombus? No, because all four sides of a rectangle don't have to be equal. However, the sets of rectangles and rhombuses do intersect, and their intersection is the set of squares—all squares are both a rectangle and a rhombus.

We can put squares in the intersection of the two circles.

From this diagram, you can see that a square is a quadrilateral, a parallelogram, a rectangle, and a rhombus!

Is a trapezoid a parallelogram? No, because a trapezoid has only one pair of parallel sides. That is why we must show the set of trapezoids in a separate circle on the Venn diagram.

What about kites? Kites are quadrilaterals that can be parallelograms. If their two pairs of sides are equal, it becomes a rhombus, and if their angles are equal, it becomes a square.

Which shows two triangles that are congruent by ASA

Ksenya-84 [330]

The four options are attached below

Answer:
Second attachment is the correct choice

Explanation:
ASA (angle-side-angle) means that two angles and the included side between them in the first triangle are congruent to the corresponding two angles and the included side between them in the second triangle

Now, let's check the choices:
First attachment:
It shows that two sides and the included angle between them in the first triangle is congruent to the corresponding two sides and the included angle between them in the second one. This is congruency by SAS. Therefore, this option is incorrect

Second attachment:
It shows that two angles and the included side between them in the first triangle is congruent to the corresponding two sides and the included angle between them in the second triangle. This is congruency by ASA. Therefore, this option is correct

Third attachment:
It shows that the three angles in the first triangle are congruent to the corresponding three angles in the second one. This is not enough to prove congruency. Therefore, this option is incorrect

Fourth attachment:
It shows that the three sides in the first triangle are congruent to the corresponding three sides in the second one. This is congruency by SSS. Therefore, this option is incorrect.

Based on the above, the second attachment is the only correct one

Hope this helps :)

At a track meet, Samma finished the 200-meter race in 25.98 seconds. Tom finished the 100-meter race in 12.54 seconds. Which run

Varvara68 [4.7K]

They have the same time average because if tom ran the 200 mile race he would have double his time on the 100 meter race. 12.54 x 2= 25.98 seconds, so they have the same average rate.
