Answer:

x = 69

Step-by-step explanation:

The exterior angle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles in a triangle

x+90 = 159

Subtract 90 from each side

x +90-90 = 159-90

x =69

Answer:

One of the interior angles is given as 90°

Move on to the exterior angle with 159°. Since one part of the altitude is given to be 159°, we can find the other part (let's name it y) because both add up to 180°(linear pair).

159+y = 180

y = 180-159

y = 21°

Now finally find x.

All the interior angles of the triangle result up to 180°

90+21+x = 180

111+x = 180

x = 180-111

x = 69°

The triangles are similar. If DE = 24, EF = 42, and AB = 8, find BC
Alik [6]
If triangle abc is similar to def
That means all angles are the same and sides will be multiplied by some factor x. So AB(x)= DE
8x=24
Therefore x =3
Now BC=EF/x
BC=42/3
BC= 14

Which number line correctly shows –0.8 + 0.6? A number line going from negative 1.6 to positive 1.6. An arrow goes from negative
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Hi there, are you sure you didn't forget any parenthesis or signs? I can't find the right answer in the options, the one that would end up at -0.2 in the end I can edit my answer if you tell me some additional option or info about the expression I need to show on the number line

Step-by-step explanation:

which number line shows correctly -0.8 + 0.6?

well lets write it in words minus eight tenths plus six tenths\

so minus:

you go 0.8 units to the left from 0,

then plus:

you go 0.6 units right from -0.8, getting to -0.2

since there is no exact answer like that we can rearrange the addends 0.6-0.8, now:

we go from 0 6 tenths units to the right and get to 0.6, then we go from 0.6 eight tenths unit to the left to get to -0.2
