Answer:

x=72 and the exterior angle is 154

Step-by-step explanation:

We will call the unknown angle in the triangle y.  Angle y and the angle (2x +10) form a straight line so they make 180 degrees.

y + 2x+10 =180

Solve for y by subtracting 2x+10 from each side.

y + 2x+10 - (2x+10) =180 - (2x+10)

y = 180-2x-10

y = 170-2x


The three angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees

x+ y+ 82 = 180

x+ (170-2x)+82 = 180

Combine like terms

-x +252=180

Subtract 252 from each side

-x+252-252 = 180-252

-x = -72

Multiply each side by -1

-1*-x = -72*-1

x=72

The exterior angle is 2x+10.  Substitute x=72 into the equation.

2(72)+10

144+10

154

Answer:

x = 5√2

y = 5√6

z = 5√3

ΔABC ~ ΔBDC ~ ΔADB

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC, ΔBDC, and ΔADB are all similar triangles to each other.

By definition of similar triangles, the corresponding sides have the same ratios.

CD from ΔBDC corresponds to BD from ΔADB, and BD from ΔBDC corresponds to AD from ΔADB. So:

CD / BD = BD / AD

10 / x = x / 5

x² = 50

x = 5√2

Since ΔBDC is right, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for y:

CD² + BD² = BC²

10² + (5√2)² = y²

y² = 100 + 50 = 150

y = 5√6

Again, since ΔΔABD is right, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for z:

AD² + BD² = AB²

5² + (5√2)² = z²

z² = 25 + 50 = 75

z = 5√3
