Which of the following completes the proof? Triangles ABC and EDC are formed from segments BD and AC, in which point C is between points B and D and point E is between points A and C. Given: Segment AC is perpendicular to segment BD Prove: ΔACB ~ ΔECD Reflect ΔECD over segment AC. This establishes that . Then, translate point E' to point A. This establishes that . Therefore, ΔACB ~ ΔECD by the AA similarity postulate. ∠ABC ≅ ∠E'D'C'; ∠E'D'C' ≅ ∠ABC ∠ACB ≅ ∠E'C'D'; ∠D'E'C' ≅ ∠BAC ∠ACB ≅ ∠E'C'D'; ∠E'D'C' ≅ ∠ABC ∠ABC ≅ ∠E'D'C'; ∠D'E'C' ≅ ∠BAC

1. ∠ACB ≅ ∠E'C'D'

2. translate point E' to point A

Explanation:

HOPE THIS HELPS! PLEASE MARK AS BRAINIEST!

1. First blank: ∠ACB ≅ ∠E'C'D'

2. Second blank: translate point E' to point A

Therefore, the answer is the third option:∠ACB ≅ ∠E'C'D'; translate point D' to point B

Explanation:

1. First blank: ∠ACB ≅ ∠E'C'D'

Since segment AC is perpendicular to segment BD (given) and the point C is their intersection point, when you reflect triangle ECD over the segment AC, you get:

the image of segment CD will be the segment C'D'

the segment C'D' overlaps the segment BC

the angle ACB is the same angle E'C'D' (the right angle)

Hence: ∠ACB ≅ ∠E'C'D'

So far, you have established one pair of congruent angles.

2. Second blank: translate point D' to point B

You need to establish that other pair of angles are congruent.

Then, translate the triangle D'C'E' moving point D' to point B, which will show that angles ABC and E'D'C' are congruents.

Hence, you have proved a second pair of angles are congruent.

The AA (angle-angle) similarity postulate assures that two angles are similar if two pair of angles are congruent (because the third pair has to be congruent necessarily).

d

step-by-step explanation:

given

y + 3 = - 4(x - 2) ← distribute the parenthesis

y + 3 = - 4x + 8 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

y = - 4x + 5 → d

the formula for the equation of a circle is (x – h)2+ (y – k)2 = r2, where (h, k) represents the coordinates of the center of the circle, and r represents the radius of the circle. if a circle is tangent to the x-axis at (3,0), this means it touches the x-axis at that point.
