Answer:

a. 14 and 14= (-1)56+1(44)

b. 3 and 3= (-4)60+3(81)

Step-by-step explanation:

Case 1: GCD is the highest common divisor for both numbers without reminder

a. GCD of 56 and 42 = 14

b GCD of 81 and 60 = 3

Case 2: Express GCD as a Linear combination.

a. GCD = 14 which is also the difference between 56 and 42

Therefore

14= (-1)56+1(44) expresses 14 as a linear combination of 56 and 44.

b. GCD=3, we need to look for a multiple of 60 and 81 that their differences would be 3

Therefore the multiples are:

For 60 = 240 (60×4)

For 81 = 243 (81×3)

3= (-4)60+3(81) expresses 3 as a linear combination of 81 and 60

<h3>Answer: 32 degrees</h3>

================================

Work Shown:

Inscribed angle theorem

arc measure = 2*(inscribed angle)

arc ABC = 2*(angle D)

arc ABC = 2*(35)

arc ABC = 70 degrees

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

break arc ABC into its smaller pieces

(minor arc AB)+(minor arc BC) = arc ABC

(38)+(minor arc BC) = 70

minor arc BC = 70-38

minor arc BC = 32

Find the values of the unknown angles marked with letters. 50 points!!!!!!!
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

  • a = 115°, alternate interior angles are congruent
  • b = 70°, same as above
  • c = 180° - 115° = 65°, angles forming a straight angle are supplementary
  • d = 180° - 70° = 110°, same as above
