Peter reflected parallelogram ABCD across the y-axis. If angle A is 115° and angle B is 65°, what is the degree measurement of angle A'?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

65° 50° 115° 180°

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Also 115 degrees, because in a line reflection, angle measurement in perserved.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Parallelism is also perserved, as well as some other characteristics.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You're welcome.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you! i have another question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If triangle MNO is congruent to triangle PQR, which statement is not true?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a. MN ≅ QP b. ∠ N ≅ ∠ Q c. NO≅ QR d. ∠ O ≅ ∠ R

@Easyaspi314

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Where's your diagram?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wasnt given one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry, I cant help you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is there one you would guess?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm not going to second-guess.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I just drew two triangle MNO and PQR that are congruent to each other, but all 4 choices are all true. See what I mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats what i thought as well

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now I can draw two triangle, MNO and PQR, that are congruent, and not all 4 choices are true. Thats why I am saying, I cannot guess what your teacher had in mind. I am not a prophet.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you are to me.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is mathematics. Not a guessing game.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I assumeyou copied the entire question and choices 100% correctly.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha tell my teacher that.... alright one more

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Justin wrote the following indirect proof: Prove: 7 is a factor of 91. Step 1: Assume that 7 is a factor of 91. Step 2: 91 divided by 7 is 13. Step 3: A factor is an integer by which another integer is divisible. Step 4: Therefore, 7 must be a factor of 91. Which step in Justin's proof is incorrect?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can post any other questions in a new post. Let anyone jump in. I'm leaving.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll answer this very quickly. As I have to leave for a while.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. thanks for the help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you want to prove something "by indirect proof", you must first assume the negation. So Step #1, should be "Assume that 7 is NOT a factor of 91."

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And BTW, after you assume the negation, you prove that the negation is not true. So you have a contradiction, And therefore, you're assumption is void. Hence, 7 must be a factor of 91. (Either 7 is a factor of 91 or 7 is not a factor of 91. If you assume that 7 is not a factor of 91, and you prove that false, then the only conclusion you can mae is that 7 IS a factor of 91. Makes sense?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes thank you! :)
