Let's call 'it' x. 1/2 is equal to one third of x, so we could say that 1/3x = 1/2
Now we just have a simple equation to solve:
1/3x = 1/2
x = (1/2) / (1/3)
Dividing by a rational number (such as 1/3, which is expressed in fraction form) is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal (the reciprocal of a fraction is itself when the numerator and denominator have been swapped). Therefore
x = (1/2) / (1/3) = (1/2) * 3 = 3/2 = 1.5
To check this answer, test the statement. Half is a third of x, where x=1.5:
1.5 / 3 = 0.5 = 1/2
Answer:
Problem B: x = 12; m<EFG = 48
Problem C: m<G = 60; m<J = 120
Step-by-step explanation:
Problem B.
Angles EFG and IFH are vertical angles, so they are congruent.
m<EFG = m<IFH
4x = 48
x = 12
m<EFG = m<IFH = 48
Problem C.
One angle is marked a right angle, so its measure is 90 deg.
The next angle counterclockwise is marked 30 deg.
Add these two measures together, and you get 120 deg.
<J is vertical with the angle whose measure is 120 deg, so m<J = 120 deg.
Angles G and J from a linear pair, so they are supplementary, and the sum of their measures is 180 deg.
m<G = 180 - 120 = 60
