Answer:

x = 71

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is an isosceles triangle, both sides are 21 units long, both angles are going to measure x at the bottom of the triangle.

The three angles of the triangle sum to 180 degrees

x+x+38 = 180

2x +38 =180

Subtract 38 from each side

2x+38-38 =180-38

2x = 142

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 =142/2

x = 71

First, split the triangle into half.

So the angle 38 becomes 38/2=19.

So we know two angles in the triangle:

One is 19 degrees.

The other one is 90 degrees (marked red).

The angles in a right-angled triangle add up to 180 degrees.

So to find the x angle, we calculate it by:

180 - (90+19) = 71

(the sum of three angles) - (the sum of the two known angles) = unknown angle

So x = 71 degrees.

1. What is the solution to the system below?<br> x+y=5<br> 1x- y=3
Alika [10]

Answer:

(4,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=5

x- y=3

Add the equations together to eliminate y

x+y=5

x- y=3

--------------------

2x = 8

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 = 8/2

x = 4

Now we can find y

x+y = 5

4+y = 5

Subtract 4 from each side

4+y-4 = 5-4

y =1

find the measure of the arc or angle indicated. assume that lines which appear tangent are tangent
Serjik [45]

Answer:

Option (1)

Step-by-step explanation:

By the property of alternate segment theorem,

"Angle formed between the tangent and the chord in a circle measures the half of the measure of the intercepted arc"

m(∠EFG) = \frac{1}{2} × m(minor arc FG)

minor arc FG = 2m(∠EFG)

                      = 2(76°)

                      = 152°

Therefore, Option (1) will be the correct option.
