@jim_thompson5910

Answer 1

something is cut off

Answer 2

see where it says "is congruent to DC by _______" ?

Answer 3

Yeah, I noticed it earlier- it's a typo :/ >.<

Answer 4

so it's a typo on their end?

Answer 5

Yes >.< and it's vital information!

Answer 6

agreed

Answer 7

so you'll have to contact your teacher about it

Answer 8

I thought I would just guess -.- , unfortunately..

Answer 9

I'd just skip and come back to it when the teacher responds

Answer 10

Yeah, do you think you could help me on this one?

Answer 11

how far did you get with it?

Answer 12

It's intimidating really.. Idk how to go about it.

Answer 13

yeah it's a lot

Answer 14

if A,B,C were given in actual coordinates, would that be easier?

Answer 15

yes, I think so.

Answer 16

so replace x1,y1,x2 with values and use those formulas they mention

Answer 17

say

x1 = 3
y1 = 7
x2 = 5

Answer 18

So far I think it's option B.

Answer 19

why do you think that?

Answer 20

The last sentence.

Answer 21

hmm it might be B just based on the fact that everything else is eliminated

C is correct because you do use that to get points D,E, so that's not a flaw

Answer 22

DE and AC have slope of 0, so A is out

Answer 23

choice D is wrong because you use the midpoint formula as C says

Answer 24

however, I'm not fully convinced that B is it, so idk

Answer 25

Therefore, we have to contrast options B and C based on the information given..

Answer 26

I eliminated C though (see above)

Answer 27

No, you eliminated B - well you said you were "unsure" if "B" is it..

Answer 28

well B is the only thing left when I eliminated the others

but I'm not fully convinced though

Answer 29

:/ alright.
