Which best describes the type of triangle What is the value
     Which best describes the type of triangle?  What is the value of x id Delta ABC is equilateral?  Use the figure to the right for Questions 13 and 14.  What is the m  27?  What is m  4?  What are the congruent triangles in the diagram?  If Delta CJW  Delta AGS, m  A = 50, m  J = 45, and m  S = 16x + 5, what is the value of x?  Write a two-column proof  Given: AB  CB, D is the midpoint of AC.  Prove: Delta ABD  Delta CBD  
 
  
  Solution
Solution:
11. Since it has right angle . therefore it is an right tringle
12. Given that triangle is equilateral therefore
each sides of the triangle are equal
AB = AC = BC
AB = AC
7.5 x = 10x-5
2.5x = 5
x = 2
thus
AC = 10x -5
= 20-5 = 15
BC=15 and AB = 15
13.
from figure
m1 = 60 ( vertically opposite angles are equal)
Now
In a given traingle sum of all angles are 180
70 + 60 + m2 = 180
m2 = 180 - 60-70
m2 = 50
answer
14.
again in triangle
m3 + 40 +60 = 180
m3 = 180-100
m3 = 80
again
m3 + m4 = 180 ( sum of angle on straight line = 180 )
m4 = 180 -80
m4 = 100
