Angle ABC = 48
Angle PBC = 24
Angle A + Angle C = 180-24.  Angle A = Angle C
Angle C = 132/2 = 66
Angle PCD = 66-24 = 42 degrees

Answer: The measure of angle PCD is 42 degree.

Explanation:

It is given that in ∆ABC,

AB = CB  

BD − altitude to AC

P ∈ BD, PB = PC

∠ABC = 48°

Since the AB and CB are equal therefore by property of isosceles triangle the angle BAC and angel BCA are equal.

According to the angle sum property the the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180.

\angle ABC+\angle BAC+\angle BCA=180^{\circ}

48^{\circ}+2\angle BAC=180^{\circ}

\angle BAC=66^{\circ}

The altitude BD on AC divides the angle b in two equal parts because triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle.

\angle PBC=\frac{48}{2}=24^{\circ}

Since PB=PC , so triangle BPC is an isosceles triangle.

\angle PBC=\angle PCB=24^{\circ}

From the figure it is noticed that,

\angle PCD+\angle PCB=\angle BCA

\angle PCD+24^{\circ}=66^{\circ}

\angle PCD=66^{\circ}-24^{\circ}

\angle PCD=42^{\circ}

Therefore, the measure of angle PCD is 42 degree.

HELP FAST!! <br><br>solve for X
brilliants [131]

The sum of the inside angles of a 6 sides figure is 720

Add the known angles together:

90 + 112 + 131 + 154 + 118 = 605

Subtract the sum of the known angles from 720 for x:

x = 720 - 605 = 115

x = 115 degrees.

An athlete plains to run 3 miles. Each lap around th school yard is 3/7 miles how many laps will the athlete run
kati45 [8]

Answer: 7 laps

Step-by-step explanation:

The athlete planned to run 3 miles

1 lap = 3/7 miles

x laps = 3 miles

by proportion :

x × 3/7miles = 3 miles

x = 3 ÷ 3/7

x = 3 x 7/3

x = 7

Therefore: the athlete will run 7 laps
