A fence on a hill uses vertical posts L and M to hold parallel rails N and P. If m∠1 = 115, then what is the measure of ∠16?
1 answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given information:
A fence on a hill uses vertical posts L and M to hold parallel rails N and P
The diagram is attached below
Here lines N and P are parallel lines
Transversal line for parallel lines N and P is line L
Calculation:
angle 1 and angle 16 are consecutive exterior angles
If parallel lines are cut by a transversal then consecutive exterior angles are supplementary
So measurement of angle 16 = 65 degrees

To start out, notice that you want the percent of voters that chose candidate A, not the percent of the class that chose candidate A.
Your fraction should be "number that chose candidate A" out of "number of voters," which is the same thing as saying:
"number that chose candidate A" divided by "number of voters"
1) The numerator of the fraction should be the number of votes for candidate A, which is 11.
2) The denominator of the fraction should be the number of voters. You're told that "t<span>here were 11 votes for Candidate A and 15 votes for Candidate B," so there are:

3) Finally put parts 1 and 2 together into a fraction and multiply by 100 to get your percent. That is your final answer:
