help please

Due to the fact this is a square the diagonals of the square are all congruent. GL equals \(\large\bf{\sqrt{2}}\) since the diagonals are equal then `HL is equal as well` we would add `GL's length twice to get HK`. \(\huge\bf{\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{2} =?}\)
it would be 2.82 if you round then 3 @563blackghost
Correct :) Though it be best to keep format so I would believe you would put \(\large\bf{2\sqrt{2}}\). Now due to the fact that this is a square the angles of the diagonals are equal to 90 degrees. So `KLJ` equals 90 degrees.
ooo okay
what about HK? @563blackghost
\(\large\bf{2\sqrt{2}}\) was HK. Sorry if that was not clear.
oh okay thank you
i probably just didn't read it right
Since the transversals of the square bisect the angle of `J` that would mean that the angles on either side are equal to each other. Due to this knowledge we divide `90` by 2 to find `Angle HJG` \(\huge\bf{\frac{90}{2 }=\angle HJG}\)
can you explain that in an simpler form ^.^ if not its okay
an angle bisector bisects the angle equally so that on either side they have the same degree. This happens when there are diagonals in a square. `Angle J` is bisected by a diagonal giving `angle HJG and angle KJG` since it bisects it the two made angles are congruent. So we would divide the total angle degree `(90)` by 2 to get `angle HJG`
okay makes more sense
So `HJG would equal 45 degrees`
4. Due to the fact we found the length of the hypotenuse of the `triangle HJK` being \(\large\bf{2\sqrt{2}}\) and we have the side lengths `HJ and KJ` of both being two `(this is because it is a square having equal side lengths)` We would add them up to find the perimeter. \(\huge\bf{2 \sqrt{2} + 2+2=perimeter}\)
and that would be 6.66 i think
I got `6.828...` you would round it to `6.8`
ohh ok oops
All's good ^.^ Now to the next
In a rhombus its opposite sides are congruent to each other. And its opposite angles are congruent to each other as well. Due to the fact it has diagonals in the rhombus, they each would be equal to each other. With that said which would apply to always being true?
in a rhombus its opposite sides are congruent to each other. And its opposite angles are congruent to each other as well. that would be true
Yes quite :) So that would mean that \(\large\bf{\angle A \cong \angle C}\) and \(\large\bf{AC \cong BD}\).
wow your so fast at solving these
Now I do believe the bisecting of angles includes for rhombus meaning that \(\large\bf{\angle ABD \cong \angle CBD}\)
so that would apply to?
I believe so, yes.|dw:1479488515548:dw|
ohh okay thank you so much
No problem Alexis :)
