Answer:
8 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Flip the situation:
X + 3.25 = 4.72
Subtract 3.25 from both sides
X + 3.25 - 3.25 = 4.72 - 3.25
X = 1.47
It's an isosceles triangle, therefore m∠B = m∠C.
We have the equation:
2x + 10 = 3x - 5 <em>subtract 10 from both sides</em>
2x = 3x - 15 <em>subtract 3x from both sides</em>
-x = -15 <em>change the signs</em>
x = 15
m∠B = (2x + 10)°
m∠B = (2 · 15 + 10)° = (30 + 10)° = 40°
We know, the sum of measures of a tringle is equal 180°.
m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°
m∠B = m∠C = 40°
<h3>Answer: ∠B = 40° and ∠C = 40°</h3>
