Answer:

a = 35     b = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles always add up to 180 degrees.  Knowing this we can first solve the triangle with the right angle.

55 + 90 + a = 180

Before we solve this, keep in mind that the reflective property will be used on angle a, giving the answer to the third angle in the second triangle.

145 + a = 180

-145        -145

a = 35

Now that we have a solved use the reflective property to get it on the second triangle.

120 + 35 + b = 180

155 + b = 180

-155        -155

b = 25

There you have your two angles.

Hope this helped you out.

For a.

Since there are already two angles given for the triangle, we can measure the last angle using this formula:

90 + 55 + a = 180

Now solve for "a".

90 + 55 + a = 180

145 + a = 180

a = 180 - 145

a = 35°

For b.

From the picture above, the two triangle's tip are touching and having to form <em>vertical angles. </em>This means that the angles are congruent to each other.

Now that we have two angles in the second triangle(35 and 120), we can use the same formula:

35 + 120 + b = 180

Now solve for "b":

35 + 120 + b = 180

155 + b = 180

b = 180 - 155

b = 25°

A circle is centered at the point (-3,2) and passes through the point (1,5). What is the radius of the circle?
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius is a distance on a circle from the center to a point on the circle.

We have both of these points describe here in this definition.  Using the distance formula will give us the radius.

\sqrt{(x \text{ difference })^2+(y \text{ difference})^2

The difference between 1 and -3 is 1-(-3)=4.

The difference between 5 and 2 is 5-2=3.

\sqrt{4^2+3^2}

\sqrt{16+9}

\sqrt{25}

A wallet sized picturer measures 1/6 and 1/4 what is the area
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

A = 1/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Area is the length times the width

A = l*w

The length is 1/6 and width is 1/4

A = 1/6*1/4

A = 1/24

Calculate the area of the given quadrilaterals.​
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

dissect the trapezium into a square and triangle. since the triangle is a right angled one the base is 17-7=10cm

the height is found using Pythagorean theorem to be 24cm i.e 26²=x²+10²,x=√(676-100),x=√576,x=24cn

area of trapezium is (1/2)(a+b)h

a is the shorter side and b the longer side

(1/2)*(7+17)24

=288cm²
