Angle ABC measures 140°. Angle DBC bisects ∠ABC. Angle EBC bisects ∠DBC. What is the measure of ∠EBC?
1 answer:
Answer:
An angle bisector divides the angle measure into two equal parts. In triangle ABC, B is the point at which the angle lies.
Step-by-step explanation:
Picture segment BD drawn from point B of tri.ABC where it connects to segment AC, creating point D. Now picture E drawn on the newly created segment DC where it connects to point B and down to point C. Here's a drawing to better show this:
It's bisecting the bisected angle ABC. So, 140/2 = 70, and 70/2 = 35.

Given:
Consider the below figure attached with this question.
∠EFH = (5x + 1)°, ∠HFG = 62°, and ∠EFG = (18x + 11)°
To find:
The measure of ∠EFH.
Solution:
From the figure it is clear that ∠EFG is divide in two parts ∠EFH and ∠HFG. So,
Isolate variable terms.
Divide both sides by 13.
The value of x is 4.
Therefore, the measure of ∠EFH is 21°.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given that M is directly proportional to r³ then the equation relating them is
M = kr³ ← k is the constant of proportion
To find k use the condition when r = 4, M = 160, thus
160 = k × 4³ = 64k ( divide both sides by 64 )
2.5 = k
M = 2.5r³ ← equation of variation
(a)
When r = 2, then
M = 2.5 × 2³ = 2.5 × 8 = 20
(b)
When M = 540, then
540 = 2.5r³ ( divide both sides by 2.5 )_
216 = r³ ( take the cube root of both sides )
r = = 6
