Since this is an isosceles triangle <H and <J would have to equal the same amount which means that x would have to equal the same thing. Setting this up would look like 6x + 18 = 8x.
First you'd subtract 6x from both sides. (What you do to one side must be done to the other)
Then you'd be left with 18 = 2x so you would divide by 2 to get x. once you get x you have to plug the number into each equation. Since x = 9 both of the angles would equal 72.
Lastly you would have to add the two angles together and divide it by 180 since the total of the angles of all triangles equals 180.
180 - 144 = 36. (I hope that makes sense)
So <G = 36°

Square root of x plus 8 end root minus 6 equals x

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Squaring both the sides, we get a quadratic and solving it, we find that the possible values of x are -7 and -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression can be written as √(x+8) - 6 = x. Take 6 on the other side and square both the sides.

[√(x + 8)]² = (x + 6)²

x + 8 = x² + 12x + 36

x² + 11x + 28 = 0

x² + 7x + 4x + 28 = 0

(x + 7)(x + 4) = 0

x = -7 and x = -4

The possible values of x are -7 and -4.

Which undefined term is used to define an angle?<br><br> line<br> plane<br> point<br> ray

Afina-wow [57]

The Undefined term that is used to define an angle is a point.

<h2>Further Explanation: </h2><h3>Angle</h3>

An angle is defined as the union of two rays with a common endpoint.
The common end point is known as the vertex of the angle while the rays are known as the sides of the angle.

It is a part of a line with one end point and proceeds on in one direction.

<h3>Naming of angles</h3>

Angles can be named in three different ways;

Using three Capital letters such as ∠ PQR, or ∠BCD. The middle letter represents the vertex of the angle. Therefore, the angles above are read as "angle PQR" and angle BCD.
Using the Vertex of the angle. For example, in the case of ∠PQR, can also be called angle Q, while ∠BCD can be called angle C.
Angles can also be named by placing any number or symbol at the vertex in the interior of the angle. Such that angles can be called angle 1 or angle 3 , or angle 5, and so on.

Angles are measured using a tool known as a protractor

<h3>Measuring of an angle using a protractor</h3>

To measure the angle, the mid-point of a protractor is placed on the vertex of the angle.
Then lining up one side of the angle with the zero line of the protractor.
Then read the degrees where the other side crosses the number scale.
