Isocoleese means that 2 sides are the same legnth
that also means that 2 angles are the same legnth
so represent the angles as x,y,z
the vertex is the different angle
lets says that x=y because they are the 2 same angle and z=vertex
so just do
the angles measure x,x,z because x=y
so
base angle=x=y
remember that all 3 inside angles added together equals 180 so
x+y+z=180 or x+x+z=180
so we have

measure of each of the base angles of the isosolese triangle is 9 les than 4 times the vertex
that means that x is 9 less than 4 times z or x=-9+4z or x=4z-9
so we have the other equation
x+x+z=180
subsitute 4z-9 for x
4z-9+4z-9+z=180
group like terms
4z+4z+z-9-9=180
add like terms
9z-18=180
add 18 to both sides
9z=198
divide both sides by 9
z=22
subsitute
x=4z-9
x=4(22)-9
x=88-9
x=79

x=y=79


the angles are
base angles=79 degrees
vertex=22 degrees


x=79
y=79
z=22

What is the solution to the system of equations?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

<h2>(-10, 2, 6)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x+3y+2z=8&(1)\\3x+y+3z=-10&(2)\\-2x-2y-z=10&(3)\end{array}\right\qquad\text{subtract both sides of the equations (1) from (2)}\\\\\underline{-\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}3x+y+3z=-10\\x+3y+2z=8\end{array}\right }\\.\qquad2x-2y+z=-18\qquad(4)\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations (3) and (4)}\\\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-2x-2y-z=10\\2x-2y+z=-18\end{array}\right}\\.\qquad-4y=-8\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-4)}\\.\qquad\qquad y=2\qquad\text{put the value of y to (1) and (3)}

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x+3(2)+2z=8\\-2x-2(2)-z=10\end{array}\right\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x+6+2z=8&\text{subtract 6 from both sides}\\-2x-4-z=10&\text{add 4 to both sides}\end{array}\right\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x+2z=2&\text{multiply both sides by 2}\\-2x-z=14\end{array}\right\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2x+4z=4\\-2x-z=14\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad\qquad3z=18\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\.\qquad\qquad z=6\qquad\text{put the value of z to the first equation}

x+2(6)=2\\x+12=2\qquad\text{subtract 10 from both sides}\\x=-10
