Answer:

When given 2 sides of a triangle, the third side must be:

Greater than the difference of the other 2 sides AND  

less than the sum of the other 2 sides.

So side "x" must be greater than

(8 -5) and less than (8 +5) or

3 < "x" < 13

NO LINKS. Find the measure of the angle or arc indicated. Part 2<br>​
sergeinik [125]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  14.  C) 136°

  15.  C) 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Inscribed angles are half the measure of the arc they intercept. For an inscribed quadrilateral, this means opposite angles are supplementary.

__

14) ∠H +∠W = 180°

  34x +55x +2 = 180

  89x = 178 . . . . . . . . . subtract 2

  x = 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 89

  arc VX = 2(34x) = 68(2) = 136 . . . degrees

__

15) The sum of angles in the triangle is 180°.

  ? + 80° + (120°/2) = 180°

  ? = 40° . . . . . . . . . . subtract 140°

2 2/4+1 1/2 is equal to what
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

16/4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Convert to improper fractions</u>

2 2/4 = 2 * 4/4 + 2/4 = 8/4 + 2/4 = 10/4

1 1/2 = 1 * 2/2 + 1/2 = 2/2 + 1/2 = 3/2

<u>Step 2:  Make common denominator</u>

10/4 is ok

3/2 * 2/2 = 6/4

<u>Step 3:  Combine </u>

10/4 + 6/4

16/4

Answer: 16/4

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

a) 20 - 3^2 = 11

b) 5th, 20 - 5^2 = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer assumes your terms begin at 1. If the terms begin at zero

a) 16

b) 6th term

if you chose to be extremely technical you would take the square root of 20.1 or 20.00000009 but I'm assuming they want whole numbers
