32. Think of the 60- and 24-ft distances as two sides of a triangle. Then the unknown distance d is
36 ft < d < 84 ft. This doesn’t account for the cases when the ball lands straight forward (d 5 36 ft) or
straight backward (d 5 84 ft).

1. >; Hinge Thm. with m∠ R > m∠ U
2. <; Hinge Thm. with m∠ DGE < m∠ EGF
3. <; Hinge Thm. with m∠ JMK < m∠ LKM
4. >; Converse of Hinge Thm. with the side

5. >; Converse of Hinge Thm. with the side
opposite ∠ 1 longer than the side opposite ∠ 2.
6. <; Converse of Hinge Thm. with the side
opposite ∠ 1 shorter than the side opposite ∠ 2.
7. >; Converse of Hinge Thm. with the side
opposite ∠ 1 longer than the side opposite ∠ 2.
8. 5; The triangles are > by SAS. 9. x < 34
10. x > 4 11. Assume temporarily that the two parallel lines contain two sides of a triangle.
12. Assume temporarily that the transversal is not perpendicular to the parallel lines.
13. a. Because m∠ 3 < m∠ 1, by the Hinge Thm, the far side of the table is lower than the near side. b. By
the Converse of the Hinge Thm., ∠ 4 will
be larger than ∠ 2 until the distance between the tops of each pair of legs is the same.
14. the second angler; The included ∠ for the
second angler is 968 and for the first angler is 908.
