From the given information, we can note that angle1 and angle2 are corresponding angles with respect to line u. Angle2 and angle9 are alternate exterior angles with respect to the right vertical line and angle5 and angle7 are alternate interior angles with respect to line v.

Therefore, the theorems which justify the answer are, respectively: Corresponding angles theorem, Alternater exterior angles theorem and Alternate Interior angles theorem.

Solve for x, worth 10 points

Anton [14]

Answer: x=22

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the angles are corresponding angles, use x+14=5x-74. You get 36=36 meaning it is right when you substitute the value for x.

x+14=5x-74

-x on both sides

14=4x-74

+74 on both sides

88=4x

Divide both sides by 4

x=22

Find the length of the missing side. The triangle is not drawn to scale.

suter [353]

Answer:

D.) 8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the Pythagorean theorem because this is a right triangle:

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is always the longest side in a right triangle (since it is opposite the biggest angle). The two legs squared have to add up to the hypotenuse squared.

Fill in values:

$a^2+15^2=17^2$
