The measure of an angle is 12° less than twice the measure of its supplement. What is the measure of the angle?

1 answer:

8 0

Here is the equation you should use: x + 2x - 12 = 180
You will be solving for x.

Combine like terms then add twelve to both sides of the equation.

3x = 192

Divide by 3 on both sides of the equation.

x = 64

Now, plug 64 in the equation for x.

2(64) - 12 = 116

Which relationship is always true for the angles x,y and z of triangle ABC

bixtya [17]

Answer:

B. y + z = x

Step-by-step explanation:

x is an exterior angle of the triangle.

y and z are the opposite angles opposite the exterior angle.

The exterior angle theorem of a triangle states that the measure of an exterior angle equals the measure of the sum of the two angles opposite the exterior angle.

Thus:

y + z = x

N fewer carrots than 12

3241004551 [841]

Its simple (n-12) because n is the variable and since it says fewer, then that means less than, which is subtracted by the number given which would be 12. Hope this helps! XD
