the slopes of lm and both 0 what can you conclude about the segments The segments are parallel. The segments are congruent. The segments are vertical. The segments are rays.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the slopes of l and m are both 0 is this your question?

OpenStudy (aonz):

if gradient is same it means its parallel

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first of all what does the "slope" imply the definition Slope the non mathematically definition

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no my question is the slopes of LM and HN both equal 0.What can you conclude about the segments? the answer they give me is The segments are parallel. The segments are congruent. The segments are vertical. The segments are rays.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok but my second question remains what does the non mathematical definition of slope mean

OpenStudy (aonz):

slope is everywhere in my maths book :/ means Be inclined from a horizontal or vertical line; slant up or down.

OpenStudy (aonz):

I should say 2 years ago maths book and anyways im from australia and they use that term often :/ lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it should be denoting some sort of inclination

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then to the mathematical term it notes " rise over run"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank guys

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but your question makes it much simpler having it given that both the lines are "EQUAL" to 0 slope i can assume you studied different kinds of lines perpendicular, parallel, vertical etc

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but ya thats how you take care of it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you guys help me again please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

diff post

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In the diagram,triangle MTD is congruent to triangle SLG which statement is true

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where are the statements?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A) <L=<D B) LG=TD C)SG=MT D)<S=<T

OpenStudy (anonymous):

technically you really cannot decide just by looking

OpenStudy (anonymous):

unless it was|dw:1374216012529:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes like that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it was stuck like that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

EXAMPLE i hope you can notice something |dw:1374216213345:dw| what will always have the same measurement in these shapes "do not care about the shapes i drew"
