Thales, an ancient greek mathematician, and philosopher used certain triangles to find the height of unknown objects. he waited for the time of day when the shadow of a meter stick was exactly one meter long. at this exact moment, thales said the height of the unknown object would also be the same as the length of its shadow. what type of triangle was he using? explain why this theory works.

What is the solution of the systems of equations? y=2/3x+3 x=-2

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.
