Answer:
The measure of the angle JKG is:
m∠JKG = 56°
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>
m∠JKG = 76-2x
m∠FHK = 6x-4
J is a midpoint of the segment FG and K is a midpoint of the segment GH.
<u>To determine</u>
m∠JKG = ?
Given that J is a midpoint of the segment FG and K is a midpoint of the segment GH. Thus, making two similar triangles, ΔJGK and ΔFGH
We know that two triangles are similar if the only difference is size. So, the angles remain the same.
so m∠JKG and m∠FHK are equal.
i.e.
m∠JKG = m∠FHK
substitute m∠JKG = 76-2x and m∠FHK = 6x-4
76-2x = 6x-4
6x+2x = 76 + 4
8x = 80
divide both sides by 8
8x/8 = 80/8
x = 10
Therefore, the value of x = 10
As
m∠JKG = 76-2x
substitute x = 10
m∠JKG = 76 - 2(10)
= 76 - 20
= 56°
Therefore, measure of the angle JKG is:
m∠JKG = 56°
3.5 times as much flour as chocolate chips....
f = 3.5c
f = 1 3/4 (or 1.75)
1.75 = 3.5c
1.75 / 3.5 = c
0.5 = c......chocolate chips needed would be 1/2 a cup
Answer:
So a square is a special kind of rectangle, it is one where all the sides have the same length. Thus every square is a rectangle because it is a quadrilateral with all four angles right angles. However not every rectangle is a square, to be a square its sides must have the same length.
Hope this helps!
