Complete the paragraph proof. We are given that ∠B ≅ ∠C. Assume segment AB is not congruent to . If AB > AC, then m∠C > m∠

B by the . If AB < AC, then m∠C < m∠B by the converse of the triangle parts relationship theorem. But by the definition of congruent, we know the measure of angle B equals the measure of by the given statement. Therefore, we have a contradiction: AB = AC, and AB ≅ AC.

Given that ∠B ≅ ∠C.

to prove that the sides AB = AC

This can be done by the method of contradiction.  

If possible let AB \neq=AC

Then either AB>AC or AB<AC

Case i:  If AB>AC, then by triangle axiom, Angle C > angle B.

But since angle C = angle B, we get AB cannot be greater than AC

Case ii:  If AB<AC, then by triangle axiom, Angle C < angle B.

But since angle C = angle B, we get AB cannot be less than AC

Conclusion:

Since AB cannot be greater than AC nor less than AC, we have only one possibility. that is AB =AC

Hence if angle B = angle C it follows that

AB = AC, and AB ≅ AC.

mash [69]

Answer: 2,004\ in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculate the area of a rectangle is:

A=lw

Where "l" is the lenght and "w" is the width.

Based on the information given in the exercise, you can draw the fish tank attached, where the dimensions are: 18 inches high (h=18\ in), 14 inches deep (w=14\ in), and 30 inches long (l=30\ in).  

The area that was convered will be the sum of the areas of all the faces, but the top of the tank.

Therefore, the area that was convered is the following:

A=(30\ in)(18\ in)+(30\ in)(18\ in)+(18\ in)(14\ in)+(18\ in)(14\ in)+(30\ in)(14\ in)\\\\A=2(30\ in)(18\ in)+2(18\ in)(14\ in)+(30\ in)(14\ in)\\\\A=2,004\ in^2

Mrs. Adams deposited $12,000 into an account that earns an annual simple interest rate of 3.25%. She makes no other deposits or
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

<em>Mrs. Adams will earn $3,120 of interest at the end of year 8.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Simple Interest</u>

In simple interest, the money earns interest at a fixed rate, assuming no new money is coming in or out of the account.

We can calculate the interests earned by an investment of value A in a period of time t, at an interest rate r with the formula:

I=A.r.t

Mrs. Adams deposited an amount of A=$12,000 into an account that earns an annual simple interest rate of r=3.25%. We must find the interest earned in t=8 years. The interest rate is converted to decimal as:

r=3.25/100=0.0325

The interest is then calculated:

I=12,000\cdot 0.0325\cdot 8=3,120

Mrs. Adams will earn $3,120 of interest at the end of year 8.

If cosine theta almost-equals 0.3090, which of the following represents approximate values of sine theta and tangent theta, for
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

\sin \theta = 0.9511 and \tan \theta = 3.078

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, \cos \theta = 0.309.

Now, we have to calculate the values of \sin \theta and \tan \theta.

We know the identity that, \sin^{2}\theta + \cos^{2}\theta  = 1

So, \sin \theta = \sqrt{1 + \cos^{2}\theta} = \sqrt{1 - (0.309)^{2}} = 0.9511 {Since 0 \leq  \theta \leq  90^{\circ}}

Now, \sec \theta = \frac{1}{\cos\theta} = \frac{1}{0.309} = 3.236

Then, we know the identity, \sec^{2}\theta - \tan^{2}\theta  = 1

So, \tan \theta = \sqrt{\sec^{2}\theta - 1} = \sqrt{(3.236)^{2} - 1} = 3.078 (Answer) {Since 0 \leq  \theta \leq  90^{\circ}}

Which equations represent circles that have a diameter of 12 units and a center that lies on the y-axis? Select two options. x2
olga55 [171]

Answer:

x^2 + (y – 3)^2 = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a circle with center at (h, k) and radius r is

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2.

If the center lies on the y-axis, then h = 0:  (x - 0)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

If the circle diameter is 12, then the circle radius is 6, and so r^2 = 36

So, among the given equations, your

x^2 + (y – 3)^2 = 36 is correct (but only if you use " ^ " for exponentiation).
