First, solve for each of the angles. Since it is a right triangle, one of the angles is 90 degrees. Knowing that the sum of the angles of a triangle are always equal to 180 degrees, you can write an equation for the triangle.
Angle1+ angle2+angle3=180.
Which means that 90+(x+15)+2x=180.
After finding the value of x, which is 25 in this case, solve for each angle.
X+15=25+15=40.
2x=25*2= 50
The value of the smallest angle is 40 degrees.
Sorry, it's late, and I'm a bad explainer.
The error is adding (2x-12) with x and 30. This is wrong because you are adding the angles inside the triangle and you are assuming that (2x - 12) is the unlabeled angle INSIDE the triangle, when it is the exterior angle/outside of the triangle.
A straight line is also 180°.
(2x - 12) + ? = 180
30 + x + ? = 180
If you look at the equations, and put parentheses around 30 + x, (30 + x) and (2x - 12) should be the SAME NUMBER. So you could set them equal to each other to find x. (or you could also look at the picture and see that they both need/are missing the same angle)
2x - 12 = 30 + x
x = 42
Now you plug 42 into the exterior angle equation
2(42) - 12 = 84 - 12 = 72°
I think the answer is 58, but im not 100% sure so im sorry if it is wrong
1. Stock Market:
If a stock price decreased $2 per day for four days, then the total change in value of the stock is $8. (2 x 4)
Answer: $8.
2. Evaporation:
With the given information, we can infer that if 3 inches of water in a tank decreases each week, then 15 inches of water would decrease over the course of 5 weeks. (3 x 5)
Answer: 15 inches.
3. Football:
If a football team lost 9 yards on 3 consecutive plays, then the team's total change in position is 27 yards. (9 x 3)
Answer: 27 yards.
Hope this helps! Good luck.
Answer:
- 64%: 1024
- 96%: 1536
- 132%: 2112
- 232%: 3712
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>64% of 1600</u>
64% of 1600 = 2 × (32% of 1600) = 2×512
64% of 1600 = 1024
<u>96% of 1600</u>
96% of 1600 = 3 × (32% of 1600) = 3×512
96% of 1600 = 1536
<u>132% of 1600</u>
132% of 1600 = (100% of 1600) + (32% of 1600) = 1600 + 512
132% of 1600 = 2112
<u>232% of 1600</u>
232% of 1600 = (100% of 1600) + (132% of 1600) = 1600 +2112
232% of 1600 = 3712
