The proof that ΔMNS ≅ ΔQNS is shown. Given: ΔMNQ is isosceles with base MQ, and NR and MQ bisect each other at S. Prove: ΔMNS ≅

ΔQNS
We know that ΔMNQ is isosceles with base MQ. So, MN ≅ QN by the definition of isosceles triangle. The base angles of the isosceles triangle, ∠NMS and ∠NQS, are congruent by the isosceles triangle theorem. It is also given that NR and MQ bisect each other at S. Segments_____are therefore congruent by the definition of bisector. Thus, ΔMNS ≅ ΔQNS by SAS.

Answer:

The correct option is MS and QS

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ΔMNQ is isosceles with base MQ, and NR and MQ bisect each other at S. we have to prove that ΔMNS ≅ ΔQNS.

As NR and MQ bisect each other at S

⇒ segments MS and SQ are therefore congruent by the definition of bisector i.e   MS=SQ

In ΔMNS and ΔQNS

MN=QN       (∵ MNQ is isosceles triangle)

∠NMS=∠NQS     (∵ MNQ is isosceles triangle)

MS=SQ         (Given)

By SAS rule, ΔMNS ≅ ΔQNS.

Hence, segments MS and SQ are therefore congruent by the definition of bisector.

The correct option is MS and QS

Gary used landscape timbers to create a border around a garden shaped like a right triangle. The longest two timbers he used are
Cloud [144]

Answer:

9 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The border of the garden is a right angled triangle.

Two lengths are given as 12 ft and 15 ft.

Let the length of the shortest timber be 'x' feet.

Now, in a right angled triangle, the longest length is called the hypotenuse.

As 15 feet is the largest length, it is the hypotenuse of the triangle. Now, applying Pythagoras theorem, we get:

(Leg1)^2+(Leg2)^2=(Hypotenuse)^2\\x^2+12^2=15^2\\x^2+144=225\\x^2=225-144\\x^2=81\\x=\pm \sqrt{81}=\pm 9

The negative value is neglected as length can never be negative.

Therefore, the length of the shortest timber is 9 feet.

Which three-dimensional figure has half the number of vertices as the rectangular prism?
monitta

Answer:

1. The rectangular prism is a right prism with rectangular bases (check the picture)

2. It has 8 vertices, so we are looking for 3d figures with 4 vertices.

3. A face can have at least 3 vertices, and the 4th must be outside of the plane determined by the first 3 vertices. This makes 4 vertices in total.

4. The 3d figure described in step 3 is a pyramid.

so the answer is prism

Gordon​ Miller's job shop has four work​ areas, A,​ B, C, and D. Distances in feet between centers of the work areas​ are: A B C
andreev551 [17]

Answer: $600,600

Step-by-step explanation:

Total handling cost :

Workpiece moved * cost * distance

Work area A :

-, (5 × 22 × 900), (9 × 22 × 900), (7 × 22 × 500)

-, 99000, 178200, 77000

Work area B:

-, -, (6 × 22 × 500), (8 × 22 × 200)

-, -, 66000, 35200

Work area C:

-, -, -, (11 × 22 × 600)

-,-,-, 145200

Work area D:

-, -, -, -

Total weekly handling cost :

(99000 + 178200 + 77000 + 66000 + 35200 + 145200)

= $600,600
