The 2 triangles in the big triangle are similar so we can write
3x / 3x - 2 = 5x / 3x 

9x^2 =  15x^2 - 10x
6x^2 - 10x = 0
x(6x - 10) = 0
x= 0 or  5/3

5. The measure of an intercepted arc is 86, and the measure of the inscribed angle creating the intercepted arc is 3x +
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Th correct option is D. 13

Therefore the value of x is 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

measure of an intercepted arc = 86°

Center Angle = 86°

measure of the inscribed angle creating the intercepted arc= (3x+4)°

Angle Inscribed in arc = (3x+4)°

To Find:

value of x = ?

Solution:

Inscribed Angle Theorem:

The inscribed angle theorem states that an angle θ inscribed in a circle is half of the central angle 2θ that subtends the same arc on the circle.

\textrm{Angle Inscribed in arc}=\dfrac{1}{2}\textrm{Center Angle}

Substituting the values we get

3x+4=\dfrac{1}{2}86=43\\\\3x=39\\\\x=\dfrac{39}{3}=13\\\\x=13

Therefore the value of x is 13.

Given that lines a and b are parallel and that m∠2 = 68°, find m∠5
Flura [38]

Answer: 112 degrees

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we are trying to find the m<5.

Notice that <2 and <3 are vertical angles which means they are congruent.

So we know that the m<3 is 68 degrees.

Now, notice that <3 and <5 are same side interior angles because

they lie on the same side of the transversal and on interior of lines a and b.

Now, it's important to understand that

same side interior angles are supplementary.

So we can setup the equation 68 + m<5 = 180.

Subtracting 68 from both sides, we have the m<5 = 112.

So the m<5 is 112 degrees.
