@Azteck Have the answers to this?
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
the hypotenuse is a length, not a point
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oh sorry, 90 degrees?
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
its not an angle either

|dw:1359960913748:dw|
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
|dw:1359960928734:dw|
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
its the longest side of any right triangle
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
so which segment that is part of the hypotenuse is touching segment AB

OR EC?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What am I saying lol its Line BE!
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
good, or EB
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
EB is on the hypotenuse and it's touching AB

@jim_thompson5910 ?
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
ok in #3, can you see 3 triangles
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i see 2 inside of the main triangle, so if you count the whole triangle itself as 1,then yes i see 3
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
good

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
so are any of those triangles similar to one another?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
not that I notice.
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
notice the right angles at angle WZY and at angle ZXW and at angle ZXY
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
so the three triangles that break up are all right triangles
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok now i see.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
ok that's the easy part
this may be a bit hard to see, but
the triangle WZY and ZXY share a common angle at angle Y
do you see this?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the right angle where z is at? the box on z? is that the point?
