Answer 2

Answers:

RS = 13

ST = 8

==================================================

Explanation:

S is between R and T. I'm assuming also that S is on line RT.

If that's the case, then by the segment addition postulate, we can say  RS+ST = RT.

In other words, the longest segment RT is broken into two smaller pieces RS and ST (not necessarily equal but they may be). Gluing the pieces back together should get us the original longest segment.

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

Apply substitution and solve for x.

RS+ST = RT

(2x+5)+(3x-4) = 21

(2x+3x)+(5-4) = 21

5x+1 = 21

5x = 21-1

5x = 20

x = 20/5

x = 4

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

If x = 4, then,

RS = 2x+5 = 2*4+5 = 13ST = 3x-4 = 3*4-4 = 8

Then notice how RS+ST = 13+8 = 21, which is is the length of RT

This confirms that RS+ST = RT is true and it confirms our answers.

Circle T is shown. Line PS and line RS are tangent to circle T. What is the measure, in degrees, of angle PTR

Answers

0Answer:

Angle PTR is 136*

Step-by-step explanation:

In Question, We Have Given

Line PS and RS are Two Tangent To Circle With Centre T & ∠PSR=44* .

Thus ∠SPT=90* & ∠SRT=90* (Property Of Tangent ↔ Tangent always Form 90* With Radius Of Circle)  

Now We Have A Quadrilateral SPTR & The Sum Of All Angle Of Quadrilateral is 360* .

Thus The Angle Of PTR is

∠PTR = 360* - ( 90*+90*+44*)

∠PTR = 360* - 224*

∠PTR = 136*

Identify the missing parts in the proof.

Given: ∠ABC is a right angle.

DB bisects ∠ABC.

Prove: m∠CBD = 45°

A:

B:

C:

D:

Answers

Answer:

The missing parts of the proof includes;

1) ∠ABC = m∠CBD + m∠ABD = 90° (Angle addition postulate)

2) m∠CBD = m∠ABD (Definition of angle bisector)

3) m∠CBD + m∠ABD  = m∠CBD + m∠CBD (Substitution property of equality)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given details of the proof are;

∠ABC is a right angle = 90°

Line DB is a bisector of ∠ABC

Therefore;

1) ∠ABC = m∠CBD + m∠ABD = 90° by angle addition postulate

By the definition of angle bisector, we have;

The angles formed by line DB from ∠ABC are equal,

2) m∠CBD = m∠ABD by the definition of angle bisector

3) m∠CBD + m∠ABD = 90° = m∠CBD + m∠CBD = 2 × m∠CBD by substitution property of equality

2 × m∠CBD = 90°

∴ m∠CBD = 90°/2 = 45°

Answer:

A: Given

B: measure the angle ABC = 90

C: angle addition postulate

D: 2 times the measure of angle CBD = 90
