Answer:

An angle bisector is a line passing through the vertex of the angle that cuts the angle into two equal smaller angles.

Given: MN is angle bisector,

then  

\angle JMN \cong \angle NMK            .......  [1]

Congruent angles are  two or more angles that have the same measure.

then;

by definition of congruent angles

[1]⇒ m\angle JMN = m\angle NMK                ......[2]

By the  Angle addition postulates states that if M is in the interior of ∠JMK then,

m\angle JMN+m\angle NMK =m\angle JMK            ......[3]

Now, by substitution property ; substitute the equation [2] in [3] we get;

m\angle JMN+m\angle JMN =m\angle JMK                 ......[4]

Like terms terms whose variables  are the same

Combine like terms in equation [4] we get

2 \cdot m\angle JMN=m\angle JMK                      ......[5]

Division property of equality states that you divide the same number to both sides of an equation.

Divide by 2 to both sides in equation [5] , we get

m\angle JMN= \frac{1}{2} m\angle JMK

Can you help me ? Pls

Answer:

The value of x = 4.4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Given that figure A is a scale image of Figure B.

It is clear that the two sides are similar, so their corresponding angles will be congruent and corresponding sides are in proportion.

Thus, using the corresponding ratios of figure A and Figure B

\frac{x}{4}\:=\:\frac{11}{10}

Multiply both sides by 10

\frac{x}{4}\cdot \:10=\frac{11}{10}\cdot \:10

\frac{5x}{2}=11

5x=22

Divide both sides by 5

\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{22}{5}

x=\frac{22}{5}

x = 4.4

Therefore, the value of x = 4.4 units.
