Mathematics
1 answer:
ivanzaharov [21]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  x = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant relations are ...

  • base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent
  • consecutive interior angles where parallel lines meet a transversal are supplementary

__

Triangle OBQ is isosceles, so angle OQB = 40°. Triangle OPQ is isosceles, so angle OQP is x. The sum of angles OQB and OQP is angle BQP, which is supplementary to angle OPQ. That is, ...

  (40° +x) +x = 180°

  2x = 140° . . . . . . subtract 40°

  x = 70° . . . . . . divide by 2

_____

There are many ways to find x. The one shown here is just one of them. In general, right triangles, isosceles triangles, symmetry, inscribed angles can all be used to write relations involving the known angles and x.

mariarad [96]

Answer:

Number of whole servings= 29 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

Trail mix quantity=Quantity per serving×number of servings

where;

Trail mix quantity=7 1/4 cups

Quantity per serving=1/4 cups

Number of servings=n

Replacing;

7 1/4=(1/4)×n

solving for n;

n=(7 1/4)÷(1/4)

n=(29/4)×4=29

Number of whole servings= 29 servings

Which statement best describes triangles UWW and<br> XYZ?
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Similar but not congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

For them to be congruent, they have to have same everything but not necessarily the same orientation.  They are not congruent because their corresponding sides aren't the same measurement.

You can tell if two triangles are similar if each pair of corresponding are congruent.

They will also have corresponding sides are proportional.

That is 50/40=60/48=40/32 in this case? Well does it?  It does, because each one of them is equal to 1.25.
