A student examines the triangle shown above. He notices that lines BE and CD look parallel. The student claims that they are parallel by look alone. is the student correct?

A-Yes- 6/3 = 12/9

B. Yes, because 6/12 = 3/9

C. Yes, because 6/9 = 3/12

OD-No-because 6/3 does not equal 12
/9

Answer 1

Lines BE and CD do look parallel in the given triangle. However, the student's reasoning is not correct. To determine whether two lines are parallel, we need to apply the principles of geometry, such as the angle sum property and the corresponding angles property. We cannot simply conclude that two lines are parallel based on how they look.

Answer 2

So it would be D
