you may already use algebra in your daily life for several things. how do you imagine that you will use basic algebraic equations in your healthcare career?

If m∠abc = 70°, what is m∠abd? justify your reasoning.  using the addition property of equality, 40 + 70 = 110, so m∠abd = 110°.  using the subtraction property of equality, 70 − 30 = 40, so m∠abd = 30°.  using the angle addition postulate, 40 + m∠abd = 70. so, m∠abd = 30° using the subtraction property of equality.  using the angle addition postulate, 40 + 70 = m∠abd. so, m∠abd = 110° using the addition property of equality.

Graph a triangle (xyz) and reflect it over the line y=x to create triangle x’y’z’. describe the transformation using words. draw a line segment from point x to the reflecting line, and then draw a line segment from point x’ to the reflecting line. what do you notice about the two line segments you drew? do you think you would see the same characteristics if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y’ with the reflecting line? how do you know?
