Answer:

88° and 132°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a pentagon ( a 5-sided shape) is given as

= (5 - 2) 180°

= 540°

The angles ∠EAB and ∠AED are supplementary hence the sum is 180° Therefore,

∠AED + 110 = 180

∠AED = 180 - 110

= 70°

Given that the sum of the angles in a pentagon is 540° then

110 + 70 + 2k + 140 + 3k = 540

5k + 320 = 540

5k = 540 - 320

5k = 220

k = 220/5

= 44°

Hence the angle ∠ABC

= 2 × 44

= 88°

∠CDE

= 3 × 44

= 132°

12a)
5x + 45 + 3x - 25 = 180
8x + 20 = 180
8x = 160
x = 20

12b)
2x - 5 = 2(20) - 5 = 40 - 5 = 35
3x - 25 = 3(20) - 25 = 60 - 25 = 35

y = 180 - (35+35)
y = 180 - 70
y = 110

Aleonysh [2.5K]

In this question, it is given that An inverse trigonometric function is used to find the value of an unknown obtuse angle in a triangle. The inverse function returns the angle 68°.

Since the angle is obtuse angle, it means the measurement of the angle is greater then 90 degree. And to find the angle measurement, we have to subtract the given angle from 180 degree.

So the unknown angle is

$180-68=112 degree$
