Hey there!

2x+1=73.
2x=72.
x=36<span>.
</span>
So the 2 consecutive numbers are 72 and 36!


Hope this helps! :)

Hey there,
Let's say 1 number is x,
1st = x
2nd = x+1
x+x+1 = 73
2x + 1 =73
2x = 73 - 1
2x = 72
x = 72 / 2
   = 36 
1st = 36 
2nd = 37

Hope this helps :))

A regular pentagon ABCDE is shown <br><br><br> Work out the size of X
nikdorinn [45]
The sum of the angles in a pentagon is 540°.

This means that each angle is 108°.

Inside you pentagon, a triangle is drawn. This triangle is isosceles, because the corners are on the points of the regular pentagon. You know that angle C is 108°.

Angles in a triangle add up to 180°.

B and D will be the same size as this is isosceles.

180°-108° = 72°

This is B and D. You only need one of these, so you divide by 2.

The answer is 36°.

Hope this helps :)

Are shape I and shape Il similar? If so, give the dilation that proves they are similar. If not, explain why the shapes are not
joja [24]

Answer:

They are similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

They are similar because, the top triangle has one more square to the height as well as the width. If you take one square away from the height and width the top triangle is the same size as the bottom triangle.
