For the quadrilateral ABCD, the diagonals bisect each other. The flowchart shown below is used to prove that quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram. In the flowchart, what is justification B? Corresponding angles are congruent Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent Alternate interior angles are congruent Reflexive property

I think it's choice 2

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

hint : ABO and CDO are alternate interior angles.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the 3rd choice?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

if alternate interior angles are congruent, then lines are parallel. So the 3rd choice.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you! Okay, I have this one too: What is the measure of Angle F?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

count how many sides it has

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, 10(6) - 4 = 60 - 4 = 56

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or is that completely wrong?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

use sum of interior angles in a polygon formula :- (n-2)*180

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

add all the angles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(6-2)*180 = (4)*180 = 720 ??

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

sum of all the angles equals that

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

use that to find x first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do I do that?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

add all the angles, write down.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

134 + 128 + 10x-4 + ...... = 720 solve x

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

getting ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

262 + 10x - 4 = 720 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it 146?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x = 15?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

forget it

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

il show u the complete solution

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Sum of angles in a n-sided polygon addup to (n-2)*180 : 134 + 128 + 10x-4 + 5x+8 + 5x+8 + 10x-4 = (6-2)*180 270 + 30x = 720 30x = 450 x = 15

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

F = 10x-4 = 10*15-4 = 146

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

oh ! you got the same thing !!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thats what I did on a piee of paper

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

i overlooked your computations sorry friend :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's okay! Thanks for the help! (:

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you welcome :)
