The angle of YWZ is equal to the angle of YWX, and angle WYX is also a right angle due to the congruency of segments WZ and WX.

Every triangle has an angle total of 180 degrees, so angle WXY is equal to

180 - (WYX + YWX)
180 - (90 + 17)
73

Angle WXY has an angle value of 73 degrees.

Víctor claims that when 1/6 is divided by a fraction the result will always be greater than 1/6 find an example of a fraction th
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Choose a random fraction less than 1. I will choose 1/4.

1/6 ÷ 1/4 = 1/6 × 4/1 = 4/6 = 2/3

2/3 > 1/6 so this example supports his claim.

Now chose a fraction greater than 1. I will choose 4/3

1/6 ÷ 4/3 = 1/6 * 3/4 = 3/24

3/24 < 1/6 so this contradicts his claim
