Line segment w y is an altitude in triangle wxz.

triangle w x z is shown. an altitude is drawn from point w to point y on side z x, forming a right angle. angles z w y and w x y are congruent.

if δywz ~ δyxw, what is true about anglexwz?

anglexwz is an obtuse angle.

anglexwz is a right angle.

anglexwz is congruent to anglewxy.

anglexwz is congruent to anglexzw.

The angle XWZ is right angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

See the given diagram.

In triangle WXZ, WY is an altitude.

So, ∠ WYZ = ∠ XYW = 90°

Now, given that ∠ ZWY = ∠ WXY.

Now, from Δ XYW, since, ∠ XYW = 90° so, ∠ WXY + ∠ YWX = 90° (1)

⇒  ∠ ZWY + ∠ YWX =  90° {Since, ∠ ZWY = ∠ WXY}

⇒ ∠ XWZ = 90°

Therefore, the angle XWZ is right angle. (Answer)

a line is an defined derm because it

a)contains an infinite number of points b) can be used to create other geometric shapes c)describes something that does not have width or depth d) is a term that does not have a formal definition. a line is an undefined term because it: contains an infinite number of points.
