Answer:
1. (5x - 2) + (2x - 2) + x =
2. m<J =
3. m<K =
4. m<L =
Step-by-step explanation:
Generally, the sum of angles in a triangle = .
So that;
m<J + m<K + m<L =
(5x - 2) + (2x - 2) + x =
5x + 2x + x -2 -2 =
8x - 4 =
8x = + 4
8x = 184
x =
x =
Thus,
m<J = (5x - 2)
= 5(23) - 2
=
m<K = (2x -2)
= 2(23) - 2
=
m<L = x

Percent decrease { (original number - new number) / original number....x 100
percent decrease : (75 - 25) / 75....x 100
50 / 75...x 100
0.666 x 100
66.6% decrease <==not sure if u need it rounded ?
∠1 + ∠3 + 90° = 180°
∠1 + ∠3 = 90°
∠3 = ∠4 (vertically opposite angles)
∠1 + ∠4 = 90°
Therefore, the answer is ∠1 + ∠4
