Measure of ∠B is 110°

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find ∠B of the parallelogram.

In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal.

⇒ ∠B = ∠D

⇒ ∠B = (5x + 10)°

  • Step 2: Use theorems of quadrilaterals to form equations to find x and y.

Now, angles in a parallelogram are equal to 360°.

⇒ ∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 360°

⇒ (3x + y)° + (5x + 10)° + (5y + 20)° + (5x + 10)° = 360°

⇒ 13x + 6y + 40° = 360°

⇒ 13x + 6y = 320°  ------ (1)

Also, adjacent angles in a parallelogram are supplementary.

⇒ ∠A + ∠D = 180°

⇒ (3x + y)° + (5x + 10)° = 180°

⇒ 8x + y = 170° ----------- (2)

  • Step 3: Solve the 2 equations to find x and y.

13x + 6y = 320

48x + 6y = 1020  (After multiplying eq. 2 with 6 to make coefficients equal)

Subtract (2) from (1)

⇒ -35x = -700

∴ x = 20

⇒ (5x + 10)° = 100 + 10 = 110°

Answer:

110°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle A = Angle C

3x + y = 5y + 20

3x = 4y + 20

Angle C + Angle D = 180

5y + 20 + 5x + 10 = 180

5x + 5y = 150

x + y = 30

x = 30 - y

3(30 - y) = 4y + 20

90 - 3y = 4y + 20

7y = 70

y = 10

x = 30 - 10

x = 20

Angle B = Angle D

= 5(20) + 10

= 110°

An isosceles triangle has a base of 8 inches and legs measuring 12 inches how wide is the base of a similar triangle with legs m
VARVARA [1.3K]
If the triangles are similar, the base should be 24 inches. The legs on the first triangle are 12 inches. To get 36 inches (the other triangle), we multiply 12 by 3. 12 x 3 = 36. Because you did that to the legs, you must also do it to the base. 8 x 3 = 24. Therefore, the base of the second triangle is 24 inches.

What’s the right answer?
galina1969 [7]

The slope of a line characterizes the direction of a line. To find the slope, you divide the difference of the y-coordinates of 2 points on a line by the difference of the x-coordinates of those same 2 points .

I am unable to read all of the options in the picture you provided but I hope this helps! (:

Which equation requires the multiplication property of equality to be solved?
alexira [117]
Option 1: 6a = 420 requires division property of equality to be solved
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving an equation means to find the value of a variable by isolating the variable on one side of the equation.
We will see all the options one by one.
Option 1:

In this option, 6 is multiplied with the variable so we have to divide the whole equation by 6 to find the value of a.
So we will use "Division property of Equality"
Dividing both sides by 6

(13) The temperature on a cold winter day is 2 degrees below zero. In the night, the temperature drops an additional 14 degrees.
EastWind [94]
Well, in the first one, 2 degrees below zero is -2 degrees, and then it says that it dropped 14 degrees, which means it dropped -14 degrees, so to know the total amount it dropped you would just have to add -2 plus -14 which is -16 degrees, so your answer for the first question would be the last answer, -16 degrees.

For the second question, just know that whenever a negative number is BY ITSELF in parentheses, that means it is used like a positive number in the equation. So (-12) automatically becomes 12. Now, since the problem is asking for a SUM, (the answer to an ADDITION problem; when you add instead of subtract), you would turn that minus symbol to a plus symbol, and add normally to get your final answer; 30 + 12 = 42. To check if this is correct, just type in <span>30 – (–12) to a calculator and you'll get the same answer! :D
Hope this helps! :3</span>
