@jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what are your thoughts on this? how far did you get?

OpenStudy (allen27):

not far enough i dont know how to do any of this man

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what do you notice about statements I and III ? What's similar between them?

OpenStudy (allen27):

they are the same because they have the m∠ SQV + m∠ VQT

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

correct

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

notice that the right sides are different in statement 1 we have 180, while in statement 3 we have m < SQT

OpenStudy (allen27):

ok

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

we would start out with statement 3 and use substitution to replace the "m < SQT" part with 180 degrees (see statement 2)

OpenStudy (allen27):

yes

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so statement 1 must come AFTER statement 3 for it to logically make sense

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

if statement 1 came before statement 3, then it's not 100% clear how the substitution is working

OpenStudy (allen27):

k man thx

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so that eliminates A and B. So the answer must be either C or D

OpenStudy (allen27):

c

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

statement 2 being stated first makes the most sense because you'll use that to help connect statements 3 and 1

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes it's C

OpenStudy (allen27):

nice thx again boi
