Options:
QR = 24.8
QR = 15.2
QR = 12.4
QR = 7.6
4. Identify the correct justification for each step, given that m ∠1 = 40° and m∠2 = 40°.
Diagram: http://my.thinkwell.com/questionbank/97001-98000/97606/img/238061.jpg
1. m∠1 = 40°, m∠2 = 40°
2. m∠1 + m∠3 = m∠ABD
3. ∠2 and ∠ABD are supplementary
4. m∠2 + m∠ABD = 180°
5. m∠2 + m∠1 + m∠3 = 180°
6. 40° + 40° + m∠3 = 180°
7. 80° + m∠3 = 180°

< PQSRQS
SQSQ
PQRQ true because if x=6 we have
PQ=3x%2B1=3%2A6%2B1=18%2B1=19
RQ=2x%2B7=2%2A6%2B7=12%2B7=19
so, < PQS ≅ < RQS by SAS

Solved by pluggable solver: Distance Formula to determine length on coordinate plane
The distance (d) between two points is given by the following formula:

d=sqrt%28%28x2-x1%29%5E2+%2B+%28y2-y1%29%5E2%29

Thus in our case, the required distance is
d=sqrt%28%283-0%29%5E2+%2B+%280-0%29%5E2%29=+3+

3.Given that PS is the perpendicular bisector of QR, PQ=12.4. and SR=7.6, identify QR.
answer:QR=15.2
proof:
QR=SR%2BSQ since PS is the perpendicular bisector of QR we can conclude that SR=SQ+ and plug in SR=7.6
QR=7.6%2B7.6
QR=15.2

Identify the correct justification for each step, given that m1+=+40° and m2+=+40°.
1. m∠1 = 40°, m∠2 = 40°.........given
2. m∠1 + m∠3 = m∠ABD..........Angle Addition Postulate;;
3. ∠2 and ∠ABD are supplementary..............Vertical angles theorem
4. m∠2 + m∠ABD = 180°...............Def. of Supplementary angles
5. m∠2 + m∠1 + m∠3 = 180°..........Angle Addition Postulate;
6. 40° + 40° + m∠3 = 180°............Substitution property of =
7. 80° + m∠3 = 180° ..................Simplify
