Draw a diagram of a right trapezoid . 
<span>B ---------------- C </span>
<span>.| ............ ............ * </span>
<span>.| ............ ............ ..... * </span>
<span>A --------------- -------------- D </span>
<span>Longer diagnal BD = 13cm </span>
<span>Longer base AD = 12cm </span>
<span>Shorter base BC = 8cm </span>
<span>Angle A is 90° , so △BAD is a right triangle . </span>
<span>AB^2 + AD^2 = BD^2 </span>
<span>AB^2 + 12^2 = 13^2 </span>
<span>AB^2 + 144 = 169 </span>
<span>AB^2 = 25 </span>
<span>AB = 5 </span>
<span>So the area of trapezoid ABCD is (12+8)*5/2 = 50 [cm^2] .</span>

To determine if these line segments are congruent you can find the distances between the x values and the y values for each set of points.

(-1, 10) and (-5, 2). 4 on x axis and 8 on the y axis.

(9, -7) and (1, -3). 8 on the x axis and 4 on the y-axis.

This means they are congruent. Each triangle would have the same two side lengths making the hypotenuse the same.

A pair of dice is loaded. The probability that a 4 appears on the first die is 2/7, and the probability that a 3 appears on the
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

9/49

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first die, probability of obtaining 4= 2/7

For the second die, the probability of obtaining 3= 2/7

Other outcomes for each die appear with a probability of 1/7

There are six cases of obtaining the sum of the two die as 7.

E1 = 1 and 6

E2 = 2 and 5

E3 = 3 and 4

E4 = 4 and 3

E5 = 5 and 2

E6 = 6 and 1

Pr(E1) = 1/7*1/7

= 1/49

Pr(E2) = 1/7*1/7

= 1/49

Pr(E3) = 1/7*1/7

= 1/49

Pr(E4) = 2/7*2/7

= 4/49

Pr(E5) = 1/7*1/7

= 1/49

Pr(E6)= 1/7*1/7

= 1/49

P(E) = Pr(E1) + Pr(E2) + Pr(E3) + Pr(E4) + Pr(E5) + Pr(E6)

= 1/49 + 1/49 + 1/49 + 4/49 + 1/49 + 1/49

= 9/49

How can you prove that a constructed line is parallel to a given line? assume that the transversal line is not perpendicular to
slavikrds [6]
Assuming that no transversal line is present, I can present only the statements base on the figures of a parallelogram. A parallelogram is a <span>quadrilateral. They only differ on the number of their parallel sides. A square has 2 parallel sides and all of its sides are equal or the same. A rhombus has 2 parallel sides and all of its sides are equal or only two of its sides are equal. A rectangle has 2 parallel sides. One parallel side is the same and can be bigger or smaller than the other parallel side. Trapezoid has only one pair of parallel sides. The other pair is a mirror to the other. </span>
