From the given figure, it can be seen that 13x = 15x - 8 because they are vertical angles and thus are equal.
13x = 15x - 8
15x - 13x = 8
2x = 8
x = 8/2 = 4
Thus, 15x - 8 = 15(4) - 8 = 60 - 8 = 52.
RT is a diameter, which means that mRT = 180
mRV + mVU + 52 = 180
mRV + mVU = 180 - 52 = 128
Now, given that mRV = mVU,
Thus, 2mVU = 128
Therefore, mVU = 128 / 2 = 64°

Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
Let the shorter base = x
Let the longer base = 3x
h = 5
Area = 60
Formula
Area = (b1 + b2)*h /2
Solution
60 = (x + 3x)*5 / 2 Multiply both sides by 2
2*60 = (x + 3x)*5 Combine like terms
120 = 4x *5
120 = 20x Divide by 20
120/20 = x
x = 6
Therefore the two bases are
x = 6
3x = 18
Y=1/2x is the equation of the line.
