In the triangle below, y = [? ] cm. Round to the
nearest tenth.

15 cm
X
35°
909

12.3

Step-by-step explanation:

You will use cosine to solve for y because you are given the hypontenuse and need to find the adjacent side.

cos 35 degrees = adjacent/hypontenuse

cos 35 = y/ 15

15( cos35 ) = y

y=12.287

=12.3

∠1≅∠2 by the alternate exterior angles theorem.

step-by-step explanation:

given, a ∥ b and ∠1 ≅ ∠3 .we have to prove that e ∥ f

we know that ∠1≅∠3 and that a || b because they are given. we see that by the alternate exterior angles theorem. therefore, ∠2≅∠3 by the transitive property. so, we can conclude that e || f by the converse alternate exterior angles theorem.

we have to fill the missing statement.

transitivity property states that if a = b and b = c, then a = c.

now, given ∠1≅∠3 and by transitivity property ∠2≅∠3 .

hence, to apply transitivity property one angle must be common which is not in result after applying this property which is ∠1.

the only options in which ∠1 is present are ∠1 and ∠2, ∠1 and ∠4

∠1 and ∠4 is not possible ∵ after applying transitivity we didn't get ∠4.

hence, the missing statement is ∠1≅∠2.

so, ∠1≅∠2 by the alternate exterior angles theorem.

yes because there is exactly one y value for every x value

for function there can't be more than one value for every x value
