A building makes a 90° angle with the ground. A ladder leans against the building, making a 110° exterior angle with the ground.

What are the measures of the two interior angles?

<u>Answer:</u>

A building makes a 90^{\circ} angle with the ground .The two interior angles are 70^{\circ} and 20^{\circ}

<u>Solution: </u>

Given, a ladder which is against the building wall makes an exterior angle of 110^{\circ}

And building makes a  90^{\circ} angle with the ground.

So, altogether it makes a right angle triangle with ladder as hypotenuse and ground as base leg and building as another leg.  

Now, we know that, sum of exterior angles and interior angles equals to 180^{\circ}

Here, in the case of ground and ladder, exterior angle is 110^{\circ} and interior angle is unknown.

Exterior angle + interior angle = 180

110 + interior angle = 180

Interior angle = 180 – 110

Interior angle = 70^{\circ}

We have found one of the two interior angles of right angle triangle.

We know that, sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degree

Known Interior angle + unknown interior angle + right angle = 180

70 + unknown interior angle + 90 = 180

Unknown interior angle + 160 = 180

Unknown interior angle = 180 - 160

Unknown interior angle = 20^{\circ}

Hence the two interior angles are  70^{\circ} and 20^{\circ}

The team won 18 of its 30 games. What was the team’s won-lost ratio?
NemiM [27]

Answer:

18:12 (accurate)

3:2 (simplified)

Step-by-step explanation:

The team won 18 games out of 30 total games. Find the amount of games lost by simply subtracting 18 with 30:

30 - 18 = 12

The ratio you are trying to find is won to lost, or won:lost. Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding terms:

won:lost ⇒ 18:12

18:12 is the ratio.

If the teacher asks you to simplify, factor both sides. Divide 6 from both sides:

(18)/6 : (12)/6

3:2

3:2 is your simplified ratio.

Suppose that m∠A = m∠D. Which other fact would guarantee that the triangles are SIMILAR?
zhenek [66]
B) m∠C = m∠F
Because now m∠B = m∠E because of the 180 total rule, and if all 3 ∠s are = then they are similar

What is another way to write the expression using the Commutative.(1 5/8 + 4 3/4) + 3 2/8
Archy [21]
Commutative property of addition is
a+(b+c)=(a+b)+c

so just move the partenthsees ()

(1 5/8+4 3/4)+3 2/8=1 5/8+(4 3/4+3 2/8)
