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 :)

The second one, as shown in the attached picture.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) postulate for the congruent triangles: two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of another triangle; the included side properly represents the side between the vertices of the two angles.
The SAS (Side-Angle-Side) postulate for the congruent triangles: two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle; the included angle properly represents the angle formed by two sides.
The SSS (Side-Side-Side) postulate for the congruent triangles: all three sides in one triangle are congruent to the corresponding sides within the other.
The AAS (Angle-Angle-Side) postulate for the congruent triangles: two pairs of corresponding angles and a pair of opposite sides are equal in both triangles.

Notes

The angle-side-side postulate for the congruent triangles doesn't exist because an angle and two sides don't guarantee that two triangles are congruent. If two triangles have two congruent sides and a congruent non-included angle, then triangles don't seem to be necessarily congruent. This can be why there's no side-side-angle (SSA) and there's no angle-side- side postulate.
The AAA (angle-angle-angle) postulate for congruent triangles does not work because having three corresponding angles of equal size is not enough to prove congruence. This principle is usually used for the similarity of two triangles.

A race car driving under the caution flag at 40 feet per second begins to accelerate at a constant rate after the warning flag.

shtirl [24]

Answer:

t = 1.667 s

Step-by-step explanation

The distance traveled since the warning flag in feet is characterized by

d = 30*t^2 + 40*t

Where t is the time in seconds after the car starts accelerating.

We can easily solve this question by plotting the equation using a graphing calculator or plotting tool.

We need to find the time for which the distance d = 150 ft

150 = 30*t^2 + 40*t , t > =0

We can see that this value in the graph is approximately

t = 1.667 s

We can verify

30*(1.667)^2 + 40*(1.667 ) ≈ 150

Suppose 50 percent of the customers at Pizza Palooza order a square pizza, 70 percent order a soft drink, and 35 percent order b

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Ordering a soft drink is independent of ordering a square pizza.

Step-by-step explanation:

20% more customers order a soft drink than pizza, therefore they cannot be intertwined.

Given: P(A)=0.5 & P(B)=.7

P(A∩B) = P(A) × P(B)

= 0.5 × .7

= 0.35

P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)

= 0.5 + .7 - 0.35

= 0.85

P(AΔB) = P(A) + P(B) - 2P(A∩B)

= 0.5 + .7 - 2×0.35

= 0.5

P(A') = 1 - P(A)

= 1 - 0.5

= 0.5

P(B') = 1 - P(B)

= 1 - .7

= 0.3

P((A∪B)') = 1 - P(A∪B)

= 1 - 0.85

= 0.15

In college basketball, some teams get most of their points from just one player, and other teams are more balanced in scoring. C

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

(B) At Maryland, the mean number of points per player per game is greater than the median number of points per player per game.

(D)The mean number of points per player per game is the same at all 3 schools.

Step-by-step explanation:

Baylor University

6 players who each score 12 points per game

6 players who each score 0 points per game.

The Scores are: 0,0,0,0,0,0,12,12,12,12,12,12

$Mean=\frac{0+0+0+0+0+0+12+12+12+12+12+12}{12} \\Mean=6\\Median=\frac{12+0}{2}=6$

University of Maryland

1 player scores 58 points per game,

1 player scores 14 points per game,

The rest(10) of the players score 0 points per game.

The Scores are: 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,14,58

$Mean=\frac{0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+14+58}{12} \\Mean=6\\Median=\frac{0+0}{2}=0$

Dartmouth College

4 players score 5 points per game,

4 players score 6 points per game,

4 players score 7 points per game.

The Scores are: 5,5,5,5,6,6,6,6,7,7,7,7

$Mean=\frac{5+5+5+5+6+6+6+6+7+7+7+7}{12} \\Mean=6\\Median=\frac{6+6}{2}=6$

The following applies:

(B) At Maryland, the mean number of points per player per game is greater than the median number of points per player per game.

(D)The mean number of points per player per game is the same at all 3 schools.

Consider the incomplete paragraph proof. Given: Isosceles right triangle XYZ (45°–45°–90° triangle) Prove: In a 45°–45°–90° tria

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

(C)Determine the principal square root of both sides of the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Isosceles right triangle XYZ (45°–45°–90° triangle)

To Prove: In a 45°–45°–90° triangle, the hypotenuse is $\sqrt{2}$ times the length of each leg.

Proof:

$\angle XYZ$ is 90^\circ$ and the other 2 angles are 45^\circ. \\\overline{XY} = a, \overline{YZ}= a, \overline{XZ}= c.\\$

Because triangle XYZ is a right triangle, the side lengths must satisfy the Pythagorean theorem, $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$

Since a=b in an isosceles triangle:

$a^2 + a^2 = c^2\\$Combining like terms\\2a^2 = c^2\\$Determine the principal square root of both sides of the equation.\\\sqrt{c^2}=\sqrt{2a^2} \\\\c=a\sqrt{2} \\$

Therefore, the next step is to Determine the principal square root of both sides of the equation.
