PLEASE HELP WITH A FEW GEOMETRY QUESTIONS! MEDALS WILL BE GIVEN AND I WILL BECOME A FAN!! 1.)The figure below shows two triangles EFG and KLM.Which step can be used to prove that triangle EFG is also a right triangle? A.) Prove that the sum of a and c is greater than b. B.) Prove that the sum of a and b is greater than c. C.) Prove that triangles are congruent by SSS property and hence, angle EGF is equal to angle KML. D.) Prove that the ratio of EF and KL is greater than 1 and hence, the triangles are similar by AA postulate.
@ninjasandtigers ? @ShortyB?
can i see the image?
yea gimme a sec
c, because you know that two sides are similar and that means the third side is similar and if one triangle has a right angle, the other one would too
Ok thanks. I have a few more questions. Some I think I know the answers to. Mind helping me out a little more?
sure
Adrian is using an indirect method to prove that segment DE is not parallel to segment BC in the triangle ABC shown: He starts with the assumption that segment DE is parallel to segment BC. Which inequality will he use to contradict the assumption?
5:3 ≠ 6:10 5:8 ≠ 6:4 5:8 ≠ 6:10 5:3 ≠ 5:6 I think its the third one
i second that
great! few more questions left! :)
yup you are right
The figure below shows a trapezoid, ABCD, having side AB parallel to side DC. The diagonals AC and BD intersect at point O. If the length of AO is three times the length of CO, the length of BO is one-third the length of AC one-third the length of AB three times the length of DO three times the length of DC I think its the third one
sorry iam not sure my self
The figure shows three right triangles. Triangles ABD, CAD, and CBA are similar. Theorem: If two triangles are similar, the corresponding sides are in proportion. Using the given theorem, which two statements help to prove that if segment BC is x, then x2 = 74? Segment BC x segment DC = 49 Segment BC x segment BD = 35 Segment BC x segment DC = 49 Segment BC x segment BD = 25 Segment BC x segment DC = 25 Segment BC x segment BD = 35 Segment BC x segment DC = 25 Segment BC x segment BD = 49 I have no clue on this one
for the trapezoid one, you are correct
b i asume
The figure below shows segments KL and MN which intersect at point P. Segment KM is parallel to segment LN. Which of these facts is used to prove that triangle KMP is similar to triangle LNP? Angle KMP is congruent to angle LNP because they are vertical angles. Angle KMP is congruent to angle LNP because they are alternate interior angles. Angle KPM is congruent to angle LPN because alternate exterior angles are congruent. Angle KPM is congruent to angle LPN because corresponding angles are congruent. I think this one is B
am i right ninja tiger
hold on
sorry got to go
im eating and doing this at the same time
haha mghprenc......
@i_need_help_plz yeah i think you were right
yah the one before this is b and this is c or b butt i think b
@monet0223 you are right its b
haha butt
shes gone
haha @i_need_help_plz
i fanned u so if i need your help or u need mine just tag me
ok :) @i_need_help_plz
hellooooo!!!!!!!!!
no im not gone. sorry, I was working on some problems. Thanks! Thats all I needed! Thanks again so much!
welcome :)
home
yahhhhhh
?? @i_need_help_plz
what
welcome home
oooooooh i get it know :p @i_need_help_plz
now
nnnnnnnnooooooow
NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hello
yeah i do that a lot @i_need_help_plz
pshhhhhhh...... its ok
