Answer:

$3x-28=2x+25\\x=53$

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines cut by a transversal are two lines which do not cross intersected by a third line. Because lines such as m and n are parallel, we have angles which are equal to each other.

Corresponding Angles - angles located in the same position in each intersection. Can be shown by translating or sliding the angle down/up.
Alternate Interior Angles - angles located inside the parallel lines across the transversal. Can be shown by reflecting and translating or rotation.
Alternate Exterior Angles - angles located outside the parallel lines across the transversal. Can be shown by reflecting and translating or rotation.

Vertical angles - angles across a vertex from one another. Can be shown by reflection.

The angles shown here are located outside the parallel lines and across the transversal from each other. Therefore we have Alternate Exteroir angles and can set them equal to each other to solve for x.

$3x-28=2x+25\\3x-2x-28=2x-2x+25\\x-28=25\\x-28+28=25+28\\x=53$

We check our work and should get equal angles:

$3(53)-28=2(53)+25\\159-28=106+25\\131=131$

babymother [125]

Answer:

B 12.68

Step-by-step explanation:

you will need to find the distance between each segment-

so the length of DC, CF, FE, ED

$d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1}) ^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1}) ^{2} }$

DC:

D(-2,-1) C(-1,2)

$d=\sqrt{(-1--2)^{2} +(2--1)^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{1^{2}+3^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{10} =3.16$

CF:

C(-1,2) F(1,1)

$d=\sqrt{(1--1)^{2} +(1-2)^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{2^{2}+-1^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{4+1} \\d=\sqrt{x} 5=2.24$

F(1,1) E(2,-2)

$d=\sqrt{(2-1)^{2} +(-2-1)^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{1^{2} +(-3)^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{1+9} \\d=\sqrt{10}= 3.16$

E(2,-2) D(-2,-1)

$d=\sqrt{(-2-2)^{2} +(-1--2)^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{(-4)^{2}+1^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{16+1} \\d=\sqrt{17}= 4.12\\$

3.16+2.24+3.16+4.12= 12.68

What is the answer and how do I solve?

8_murik_8 [283]

Because it is a 90° angle and the legs are congruent, the legs intersect with the hypotenuse at the same angle, so the other, unnamed angle at the bottom left is equal to x.

Now we can state that:

2x + 90 = 180
2x = 90
x = 45

Inside a square with side length 10, two congruent equilateral triangles are drawn such that they share one side and each has on

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

5 length

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram attached shows two equilateral triangles ABC & CDE. Since both squares share one side of the square BDFH of length 10, then their lengths will be 5 each. To obtain the largest square inscribed inside the original square BDFH, it makes sense to draw two other equilateral triangles AGH & EFG at the upper part of BDFH with length equal to 5.

So, the largest square that can be inscribe in the space outside the two equilateral triangles ABC & CDE and within BDFH is the square ACEG.
