Given: RT || SP, RQ ≅ QP, RP bisects ST at Q Prove: ΔRQT ≅ ΔPQS

Triangles R Q T and P Q S are connected at point Q. Lines R T and S P are parallel. The lengths of lines R Q and Q P are congruent.
Tamir is working to prove the triangles congruent using SAS. After stating the given information, he states that TQ ≅ QS by the definition of segment bisector. Now he wants to state that ∠RQT ≅ ∠PQS. Which reason should he use?

alternate interior angles theorem
corresponding angles theorem
linear pair postulate
vertical angles theorem

step-by-step explanation:

you can add the two numbers and divide the result by 2. or you can find the gap between the two numbers and add half of this to the smaller number.

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
