Find the measures of x and y

Mathematics
2 answers:
Blizzard [7]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 159; y = 140

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 40

a + y = 180

y = 180 - 40

y = 140

b = 61

b = (180 - x) + a

61 = 180 - x + 40

x = 159

Answer:

m∠x = 159°

m∠y = 140°

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>PART I: Find the measure of y</h2>

<u>Given information</u>

∠a = 40°

<u>Given formula</u>

∠a + ∠y = 180° (Supplementary angles)

<u>Substitute values into the formula</u>

40 + ∠y = 180

∠y = 180 - 40

\Large\boxed{\angle y=140^\circ}

<h2>PART II: Find the measure of x</h2>

<u>Given information</u>

∠b = 61°

∠c = Supplementary angle of ∠b

<u>Given formula</u>

∠b + ∠c = 180°

<u>Substitute values into the formula</u>

61 + ∠c = 180

∠c = 180 - 61

∠c = 119°

<u>Determine the value of ∠x</u>

∠x = ∠a + ∠c (Exterior angle theorem)

∠x = (40) + (119)

\Large\boxed{\angle x=159^\circ}

Hope this helps!! :)

Tracy needs to find the length and width of the equipment storage room where she works. The room is 2 meters longer than it is w
____ [38]

Answer:

3 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the storage room is a rectangle, like most rooms, no indication it is otherwise.

We know it's a rectangle and not a square because it is longer than wide.

We have the perimeter measurement (16 meters).

So, we can make the following equation:

2x + 2y = 16

x being the width of the room, y being it's length.  A perimeter is the sum of all sides.

We also know the room is 2 meters longer than wide... so:

y = x + 2

If we replace y in the first equation by its value relative to x, we get:

2x + 2(x + 2) = 16 which becomes

2x + 2x + 4 = 16

4x =12

thus x = 3

Width: 3 meters

Length: 5 meters.

Confirms the 16 meters perimeter.

Write equations for the horizontal and vertical lines passing through the point (8,5)
almond37 [142]

Answers:

Horizontal Line:  y = 5

Vertical Line:  x = 8

=================================================

Explanation:

All horizontal lines are of the form y = k, for some constant k. We want the horizontal line to pass through (8,5), meaning every point on this horizontal line must have y coordinate 5. Therefore, y = 5 is the equation of the horizontal line. Two such points on this line are (1, 5) and (8, 5). All that matters is the y coordinate is 5. The x coordinate can be anything you want. The slope of any horizontal line is 0.

Flipping things around, all vertical lines will have the x coordinate of each point be the same value. Draw a vertical line through (8,5) and note how each point has x coordinate of 8. Two such points are (8,1) and (8,5). Therefore, the equation of the vertical line is x = 8. The y coordinate can be any value you want. The slope of any vertical line is undefined. Unlike the horizontal line, we cannot write this equation in slope intercept form (namely because the slope isn't defined).

Pls help will give brainliest and 5star plss helpp
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Yes, they are congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

Two figures are congruent if they have the same side lengths and the same angles, all in the same order. (I mean "same order" by you couldn't have a rectangle and a kite with different orders of the sides being congruent). Now, if we use this, we can compare the sides and angles to find out that they are indeed congruent.
