<u>136 + x + x = 180. Or, to simplify, 136 + 2x = 180. The congruent angles measure 23 degrees each.</u>

We know this because of a simple rule that goes for all triangles: The measures of all three angles in a triangle will <em>always</em> add up to 180 degrees.

One angle of a triangle measures 136 degrees. The other two angles are congruent (have the same measure).

(x stands for an unknown angle measure.) So the equation we would use is 136 + 2x = 180. We can solve this within a few steps.

1. We subtract 136 from 2x in order to isolate 2x. But if we subtract something from the left side of the equation, we have to subtract it from the right side too. Otherwise the equation will be wrong; We would be taking away the balance.

2x = 180 - 136

2. Now that 2x is isolated, we solve 180 - 136.

2x = 46

3. If we know now that 2x is equal to 46, how do we find out what x is equal to? We divide by 2 (on both sides or it'll be wrong) to get x.

2x = 46

2x/2 = 46/2

x = 23

Now we know! x = 23... The other two angles are both 23 degrees. We can check to see if that's right by solving 23 + 23 + 136... Does it add up to 180? Yes! :)

A scale on a map shows that 2.52.52, point, 5 centimeters represents 151515 kilometers.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

  105 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Written as a proportion, the ratio of km to cm will be the same for both distances:

  (x km)/(17.5 cm) = (15 km)/(2.5 cm)

  x km = (15 km)(17.5/2.5) = 105 km

105 actual kilometers are represented by 17.5 cm on the map.

The probability that an event will occur is 2/3. which one of these best describes the likelihood of the event occurring?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

The probability that an event will occur is 2/3.

Means out of 3 times, 2 times that event will occur.

Please refer the pie chart for this, blue is the color which represents event to be occur and orange is not to be occur.

We can see, blue part is much more than orange part.

means the likelihood of event occuring is LIKELY.   :  Answer

Hope it will help :)

Anni [7]

So 10% of 12=1.2 divided by

2 to get 5% which is 0.6 so because it’s increasing the amount you do $12 + 0.6 =

$12.6 if you pay online
