An investigator at a crime scene found a triangular piece of torn fabric. The investigator remembered that one of the suspects had a triangular hole in their coat. Perhaps it was a match. Unfortunately, to avoid tampering with evidence, the investigator did not want to touch the fabric and could not fit it to the coat directly.
a) If the investigator measures all three side lengths of the fabric and the hole, can the investigator make a conclusion about whether or not the hole could have been filled by the fabric?
b) If the investigator measures two sides of the fabric and the included angle and then measures two sides of the hole and the included angle can he determine if it is a match? Explain.

Answer:

  a) yes

  b) yes

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Triangles can be proven congruent by the SSS postulate, so knowing the three side lengths is sufficient to demonstrate the piece will fit in the hole.

__

b) A triangle can be solved (completely specified) if two sides and the included angle are known. Those measurements on the fabric and the hole allow all side lengths and angles of the triangles to be determined completely. Hence the triangles can be shown congruent as a result.

_____

Additional comment

Showing SSS congruence generally means demonstrating corresponding sides are the same length. However, the three side lengths completely specify the triangle. The side lengths can always be made corresponding if they are listed in some order, for example, shortest to longest.

Showing SAS congruence requires that corresponding sides and angles be shown congruent. However, an SAS specification of a triangle is sufficient to permit determination of all sides and angles. Specifically, the third side length can be found using the Law of Cosines, and the remaining angles can be found from either the Law of Sines or the Law of Cosines.

Step-by-step explanation:

I think C(12,0) means 12 choose 0. If yes, then the answer is 1. There is only 1 way to pick 0. Or, you can calculate it with the form:

C(12,0) = [tex]\frac{12!}{0!(12-0)!}[/tex] ⇒

Answer:

  terms were improperly combined

Step-by-step explanation:

I find the easiest way to identify the error in a solution is to solve it myself and compare with what is shown as being done.

Here, we're starting with ...

  [tex]\dfrac{1}{5}g-\dfrac{1}{10}-g+1\dfrac{3}{10}g-\dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]

If we identify the g-terms and the constant terms, we can group them the way Tyson did:

  [tex]\dfrac{1}{5}g+(-1)g+1\dfrac{3}{10}g-\dfrac{1}{10}-\dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]

The next step is to combine like terms. We can factor out g, so the coefficients are easier to see and combine.

  [tex]\left(\dfrac{1}{5}+(-1)+1\dfrac{3}{10}\right)g-\dfrac{1}{10}-\dfrac{1}{10}\qquad\text{step 1a}\\\\\dfrac{1}{2}g-\dfrac{1}{5}\qquad\text{step 2}[/tex]

The error is 1 3/10 was combined with -2/10 as a constant instead of being combined with -4/5 as a coefficient of g.

Stellan began a proof.

JL=KM because segment JL≅ segment KM.
JK+KL=JL and KL+LM=KM, by the segment addition postulate.
KL+LM=JL, by substituting JL for KM.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

 D.  7 +3i, 7 -3i

Step-by-step explanation:

When the leading coefficient of the quadratic is 1, as it is here, the sum of the roots is equal to the opposite of the coefficient of the x-term. So, we need the sum of roots to be -(-14) = 14.

In each case, the imaginary parts cancel when the roots are added. The real parts of the roots are the same, so the sum of roots is double the real part of one of the roots. In order for that to be 14, the real part of the root must be 7.

Only answer choice D matches this requirement.

__

Algebraic solution

  x^2 -14x +58 = 0 . . . . given

  (x -7)^2 = -9 . . . . . . . subtract 9 and write as a square

  x = 7 ± 3i . . . . . . . . square root and add 7

______

Additional comment

When p and q are roots, (x-p) and (x-q) are factors. The expansion of the factored form is ...

  (x -p)(x -q) = x^2 -(p+q)x +pq = 0

That is, the constant term is the product of the roots, and the linear (x) term coefficient is the opposite of the sum of the roots. This can help you check quickly if an offered choice of roots is applicable to the given equation. This is also the basis of the thinking used to factor the equation.

what kinds of triangles can you use the pythagorean theorem on

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem applies to right angled triangles only.

However, for any other triangle, by dropping a perpendicular from any vertex on to the opposite side, you form two right angled triangles both of which can be solved by the Pythagorean theorem.

So, the Pythagorean theorem applies to right angled triangles directly and to other triangles indirectly.

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  right triangles

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem relates the side lengths of a right triangle.

  c² = a² +b² . . . . . . . . for legs 'a' and 'b' and hypotenuse 'c'

__

Additional comments

The more general form of the relation between side lengths of a triangle is given by the Law of Cosines:

  c² = a² +b² -2ab·cos(C) . . . . for sides 'a', 'b', and 'c' with angle C opposite side 'c'

You will notice this reduces to the Pythagorean relation when C = 90°.

__

Triples of integers that satisfy the Pythagorean relation are called Pythagorean triples. The smallest set (and the only sequential set) of these is (a, b, c) = (3, 4, 5). Other triples commonly seen in math problems are (5, 12, 13), (7, 24, 25), (8, 15, 17), and multiples of these.
