Answer:
m <2=m <8(Alternative exterior angles)
Therefore m <8=55°
Answer:
D. 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the missing length be represented as x.
Thus:
(24 - x)/12 = x/20 => angle bisector theorem
Cross multiply
20(24 - x) = x(12)
480 - 20x = 12x
480 - 20x + 20x = 12x + 20x
480 = 32x
480/32 = 32x/32
15 = x
Missing length = x = 15
It seemed like it should have been so simple. There was nothing inherently difficult with getting the project done. It was simple and straightforward enough that even a child should have been able to complete it on time, but that wasn't the case. The deadline had arrived and the project remained unfinished.
Because all 3 sides are given for both triangles you can use the SSS theorem
