We have to rewrite the expression so that it has no denominator.
For example:
1 / x = x^(-1)
1/8 = 8^(-1); 1/x^(4) = x^(-4); 1/y^(3) = y^(-3); 1/z = z^(-1).
The answer oils be 2 square root 2 because 4 times 2 is 8 and because the square root of 4 is 2 you would move that 2 to the outside and keep the other two on the inside of the square root.
The copper wire was 150 meters longer than the steel wire. You take 240-60 and get 180. You can then divide that number by 2 to figure out how long the steel wire was to get 90. From there, subtract the 90 by the original 240 and you’ll get 150.
Alternate interior angles are equal, thus the given alternate interior angle is 80 degrees.
Therefore, x = 80 - 15 = 65 degrees.
