PLEASE HELP Two isosceles triangles share the same base. Prove that the medians to this base are col linear. (There are two cases in this problem: vertices are on the same side of the base and vertices are on the opposite sides of the base!)

Given: Two Isosceles triangle ABC and Δ PBC having same base BC. AD is the median of Δ ABC and PD is the median of Δ PBC.

To prove: Point A,D,P are collinear.

Proof:

→Case 1.  When vertices A and P are opposite side of Base BC.

In Δ ABD and Δ ACD

AB= AC   [Given]

AD is common.

BD=DC  [median of a triangle divides the side in two equal parts]

Δ ABD ≅Δ ACD [SSS]

∠1=∠2 [CPCT](1)

Similarly, Δ PBD ≅ Δ PCD [By SSS]

∠ 3 = ∠4 [CPCT](2)

But,  ∠1+∠2+ ∠ 3 + ∠4 =360° [At a point angle formed is 360°]

2 ∠2 + 2∠ 4=360° [using (1) and (2)]

∠2 + ∠ 4=180°

But ,∠2 and ∠ 4 forms a linear pair i.e Point D is common point of intersection of median AD and PD of ΔABC and ΔPBC respectively.

So, point A, D, P lies on a line.

CASE 2.

When ΔABC and ΔPBC lie on same side of Base BC.

In ΔPBD and ΔPCD

PB=PC[given]

PD is common.

BD =DC [Median of a triangle divides the side in two equal parts]

ΔPBD ≅ ΔPCD  [SSS]

∠PDB=∠PDC [CPCT]

Similarly, By proving ΔADB≅ΔADC we will get,  ∠ADB=∠ADC[CPCT]

As PD and AD are medians to same base BC of ΔPBC and ΔABC.

∴ P,A,D lie on a line i.e they are collinear.

Step-by-step explanation:

just take the area of the square and then the area of the circle then subtract the circle area from the squares area

answer: a video game has three difficulty levels: easy, medium, and expert. the game's scoring works in such a way that a player has to score a fixed number of points to advance to the next level, and then the scoring starts over. the total score needed to clear all three difficulty levels is 7,500. two times the number of points needed to clear the easy level is 500 more than the number of points needed to clear the medium level. twice the number of points needed to clear the medium difficulty level is 1,500 more than the number of points needed to clear the expert level. if x, y, and z represent the easy, medium, and expert levels, respectively, and a is the coefficient matrix of the system of equations modeling this situation, identify the inverse matrix, a-1, and the solution matrix, x, of the system of equations.
