What is the meaning of AAA theorem?

Answers

Answer 1

If three angles of one triangle are congruent to three angles of another triangle then by the AAA similarity theorem, the two triangles are similar. Actually, you need only two angles of one triangle being congruent to two angle of the second triangle.

How to prove AAA Theorem?

Specifying three angles A, B, and C does not uniquely define a triangle, but any two triangles with the same angles are similar. Specifying two angles of a triangle automatically gives the third since the sum of angles in a triangle sums to 180 degrees (pi radians), i.e.,

C = π - A - B .

Prove:

Triangles ABC and DEF such that ∠A = ∠D; ∠B = ∠E; ∠C = ∠F

Δ ABC ~ ΔDEF

Construction : We mark point P on the line DE and Q on the line DF such that AB = DP and AC = DQ, we join PQ.

There are three cases :

Case ( i ) : AB = DE, thus P coincides with E.

⇒ AB = DE, BC = EF and AC = DF

Consequently, Q coincides with F.

AB BC CA

---- = ------ = ------

DE EF FA

Since the corresponding angles are equal, we conclude that Δ ABC ~ Δ DEF.

Case( ii ) : AB < DE. Then P lies in DE

In triangles ABC and DPQ,

Statements ------ Reasons

1) AB = DP- 1) By construction

2) ∠A = ∠D -2) Given

3) AC = DQ -3) By construction

4) ΔABC ≅ ΔDPQ -4) By SAS postulate

5) ∠B = ∠DPQ 5) CPCTC

6) ∠B = ∠E- 6) Given

7) ∠E = ∠DPQ- 7) By transitive property

( from above)

8) PQ || EF -8) If two corresponding angles are congruent then the lines are parallel

9) DP/DE = DQ/DF -9) By basic proportionality theorem

10) AB/DE = BC/EF- 10) By construction

11) AB/DE = AC/DF- 11) By substitution property

12) Δ ABC ~ Δ DEF - 12) By SAS postulate

James has a sidewalk that runs through his flower garden. He needs to put more mulch in the flower garden. If one bag of mulch covers 4 square yards, how many bags of mulch will he need?

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The given proportion can be represented as:

[tex]1\ bag = 4yd^2[/tex]

Required

The additional number of mulch needed

The question has incomplete details, as the amount of mulch he has applied and the area of the flower garden are not given.

So, I will make some assumptions to solve this question.

Let the area of his flower garden be x.

So, we have:

[tex]1\ bag = 4yd^2[/tex]

[tex]y = x\ yd^2[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]4yd^2 * y = xyd^2 * 1\ bag[/tex]

Make y the subject

[tex]y = \frac{x\ yd^2 * 1\ bag}{4yd^2}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{x* 1\ bag}{4}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{x}{4}\ bag[/tex] --- This represents the total amount of mulch required for the flower garden

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assumptions

Assume that [tex]x = 16[/tex],

So, we have:

[tex]y = \frac{x}{4}\ bag[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{16}{4}[/tex]

[tex]y = 4[/tex]

i.e 4 bags are needed.

Assume he has applied 2 bags already.

The number of bags needed to apply will be:

[tex]y - 2[/tex]

[tex]y - 2 = 4 - 2[/tex]

[tex]y - 2 = 2[/tex]

2 more bags needed

If DE is the midsegment of ABC what is the value of x AND y?

Answers

Answer:

3.) x = 4.5

4.) y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

3 is an easier one than 4. By the triangle midsegment theorem, the midsegment of a triangle will be half of the base if it is parallel to it. AB is our base, so the equation is like this!

[tex]AB = 2(ED)\\9=2(ED)\\4.5=ED[/tex]

Now for 4, it actually is pretty easy. By the same triangle midsegment theorem, we automatically know that EC and EA are congruent, and CD and DB are also congruent. Meaning y equals 7.

But another way we can determine this (the long, kinda unecessary, but useful way) is through examining the relationship that triangles ABC and EDC have!  We know that they are similar triangles by SAS or AA. Meaning, their equation looks something like this...

[tex]4.5(7+y) = 9y\\31.5 + 4.5y = 9y\\31.5=4.5y\\7=y[/tex]

Like I said earlier, 7 is equal to y, but I figured I'd prove it so we are on the same page. Nothing wrong with double-checking ;)

The product of two numbers is 144, but their sum is -24. What are these two numbers?

Answers

Answer:

The two numbers are - 12 and - 12 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and y then

By the question

x * y = 144

or x = 144 / y ....... I)

Again

x + y = - 24

Or 144/y + y = - 24

or, ( 144 + y²) / y = - 24

or, 144 + y² = - 24y

y² + 24y + 144 = 0

y² + ( 12 + 12 ) y + 144 =0

y² + 12y + 12y + 144 = 0

y(y + 12 ) + 12 ( y + 14) = 0

( y + 12 ) ( y + 12 ) = 0

Either

y + 12 =0

y = - 12

Now

x = 144 / - 12 = - 12

Therefore the two numbers are - 12 and - 12 .

Hope it will help :)❤

Step-by-step explanation:

It takes 2 minutes to brush your teeth and if you times that by 3 you get 6 so she spends 6 minuntes per day brushing her teeth and water runs fast. so if your leaving the water on for 6 mintues your filling up much more than 2 cups

Point B has coordinates ​(4,1). The​ x-coordinate of point A is -4. The distance between point A and point B is 10 units. What are the possible coordinates of point​ A?

Answers

Given:

Point B has coordinates ​(4,1).

The​ x-coordinate of point A is -4.

The distance between point A and point B is 10 units.

To find:

The possible coordinates of point​ A.

Solution:

Let the y-coordinate of point A be y. Then the two points are A(-4,y) and B(4,1).

Distance formula:

[tex]D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

The distance between point A and point B is 10 units.

[tex]\sqrt{(4-(-4))^2+(1-y)^2}=10[/tex]

Taking square on both sides, we get

[tex](8)^2+(1-y)^2=100[/tex]

[tex](1-y)^2=100-64[/tex]

[tex](1-y)^2=36[/tex]

Taking square root on both sides, we get

[tex](1-y)=\pm \sqrt{36}[/tex]

[tex]-y=\pm 6-1[/tex]

[tex]y=1\mp 6[/tex]

[tex]y=1-6[/tex] and [tex]y=1+6[/tex]

[tex]y=-5[/tex] and [tex]y=7[/tex]

Therefore, the possible coordinates of point​ A are either (-4,-5) or (-4,7).

Simplify the following trigonometric expression. cosθtan²θcotθ

Answers

This question requires the understanding of trigonometric identities. I'll list the ones that are needed to answer this question:

cotθ = 1 / tanθ

tanθ = sinθ / cosθ

Look at the latter identity. We can rewrite it as such:

tanθ * cosθ = sinθ

We are given the expression:

cosθ * tan²θ * cotθ

Referring to the first trigonometric identity above, substitute cotθ:

cosθ * tan²θ * (1 / tanθ)

Multiply tan²θ and the fraction:

cosθ * (tan²θ / tanθ)

cosθ * tanθ

Refer to the second trigonometric identity:

cosθ * tanθ

sinθ

cosθ * tan²θ * cotθ = sinθ
