<2 and <6 are right angles by the definition of perpendicular lines.
Since corresponding angles are congruent, m || n.

11.
In a triangle, the measures of the three angles add to 180 degrees.
If one angle is a right angle, then that angle measures 90 degrees. The other two angle measures plus 90 degrees add to 180 degrees, so the other two angle measures add to 90 degrees. In a right triangle there is a right angle and two other angles that are complementary.

Now look at your problem.
One angle is a right angle.
The other two angles are complementary, so their measures add to 90 deg.

8x + 2 + 9x + 3 = 90

17x + 5 = 90

17x = 85

x = 5

Which expression is equivalent to the quantity five raised to the negative second power times three raised to the fifth power en

serg [7]

The equivalent expression is 5^(4) * 3^(-10)

<h3>How to determine the equivalent expression?</h3>

The statement is given as:

five raised to the negative second power times three raised to the fifth power end quantity all raised to the negative second power

Rewrite properly as:

(5^-2 * 3^5)^-2

Expand the expression by multiplying the exponents

So, we have:

5^(-2 -2) * 3^(5 *-2)
