It is given that ️PQR & ️UVW are congruent to each other. According to CPCT, the corresponding angles in 2 triangles willl have the same measure. So, ∠R = ∠W, i.e, (10x - 18)° = 8x°

$\mathfrak{10x - 18 = 8x}$

$\mathfrak{10x - 8x = 18}$

$\mathfrak{2x = 18}$

$\mathfrak{x = \dfrac{18}{2}}$

$\underline{\mathfrak{x = 9}}$

Measure of ∠R :

$\mathfrak{8x}$

$\mathfrak{8(9)}$

$\boxed{\mathfrak{72^{\circ}}}$

kondaur [170]

Answer:

C, 12

Step-by-step explanation:

least common multiple of 4 and 6 is:

prime factorization of 4: 2*2

prime factorization of 6: 3*2

common factors: 2, so you should only multiply one of the common 2s when multiplying the factors to get the least common multiple

2*2*3=12

12 is a common denominator of 1/4 and 5/6
