A 6th leaf is added to the sample and its length is
measured. Its measure increases the mean value of
the sample of leaves but decreases the median value
of the sample of leaves. What is a possible
measurement for the length of the 6th leaf?
A) 13.1 cm
B) 13.3 cm
C) 13.4 cm
D) 13.7 cm

answer:      

step-by-step explanation:

δabc ≅ δdcb by sas because

db ≅ ac . . given (side)

bc ≅ bc . . reflexive property (side)

∠dbc ≅ ∠ acb . . alternate interior angles where transversal bc crosses parallel lines bd and ac (included angle)

step-by-step explanation :

we know that

the measurement of the outer angle is the semi-difference of the arcs which comprises

in this problem

m< xzy is the outer angle

substitute the values

the measure of angle xoy is equal to

> by central angle

substitute the value
