You can split the combined shape into separate shapes and find the area of each of those. once you have done that add all of the areas together and that will get you your combined shapes area.
Yz= bc - wx
==> z= (bc -wx) / y
Answer: ∠ J = 62° , ∠ K = 59° , ∠ L = 59°
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
It is given that it is an Isosceles Triangle, where L J ≅ K J
It follows that ∠ K ≅ ∠ L
⇒ 5x + 24 = 4x + 31
⇒ x + 24 = 31
⇒ x = 7
Input the x-value into either equation to solve for ∠ K & ∠ L:
∠ K = 5x + 24
= 5(7) + 24
= 35 + 24
= 59
∠ K ≅ ∠ L ⇒ ∠ L = 59
Next, find the value of ∠ J:
∠ J + ∠ K + ∠ L = 180 Triangle Sum Theorem
∠ J + 59 + 59 = 180
∠ J + 118 = 180
∠ J = 62
