SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ---- what segment is congruent to AC? A B C D E <---------------------------------------> -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 a. __ BD b. __ BE c. __ CE d. none

OpenStudy (anonymous):

From -6 to positive 2, it's +8 right? So find one that's also +8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but it says segment AC

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes segment AC is 8 units in length.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the next one should be CE right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, because CE is only 4 units in length, you need to find one that's the same amount of units (8)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you can't find one, you know the drill.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok but can you explain to me how AC is 8 unites @zkrup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, from -6 to 0 is +6 right? Then from 0 to +2 = +2 Take 6 + 2 and that equals 8.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i get it know there is no answer right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OH AC darn I messed up.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's plus 6 my bad.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No there is.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no cuz C falls under 0 not 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yea, A to C = 6, -6 to 0 = +6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So you gotta find one that's also +6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm probably confusing you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes you are lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cuz i cant find another one thats +6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What about -2 to +4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2+4=2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, it's a number line, therefore from point -2 to point +4 you have to go like this, let me draw it one second.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks
