Ln

AI Thread Summary

In triangle LON, where OM bisects LN, the key conclusion drawn is that LM is congruent to MN. This is supported by the property of angle bisectors creating equal segments. Participants in the discussion express agreement with this conclusion and seek further assistance on the topic. The focus remains on understanding the implications of the bisector in relation to the triangle's sides. Overall, the consensus centers on the congruence of LM and MN due to the bisecting line.

In ?LON, OM bisects LN.* What conclusion can we draw from this?

a. angle L is congruent to angle N
b. LM is congruent to MN
C. LO is congruent to ON

I think it's B, because OM bisects LN & that's what's left.

i need a lot more help, if anyone is interested in helping me IM me at xstarrlit.

Thread 'Family of lines that are at a distance of 5 from the origin'

I picked up this problem from the Schaum's series book titled "College Mathematics" by Ayres/Schmidt. It is a solved problem in the book. But what surprised me was that the solution to this problem was given in one line without any explanation. I could, therefore, not understand how the given one-line solution was reached. The one-line solution in the book says: The equation is ##x \cos{\omega} +y \sin{\omega} - 5 = 0##, ##\omega## being the parameter. From my side, the only thing I could...
