Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin, the most reasonable way of figuring out the answer is creating an equation.

In that case, we can represent all possible numbers with the variable "N"

We basically have that 4n + 12 divided by 2 = 100 (because 10^2 = 100)

Simplifying:

4n + 12  ÷  6 = 100

Multiplying each side by 6:

24n + 72 = 600

Subtracting 72:

528

Dividing by 24:

N = 22

<u>Check:</u>

22 * 4 =  88. 88 + 12 = 100. Square rooting gives 10. Thus, an answer that the number you started with was 22 is correct.

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

150 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = measure of smaller angle

let 5x = measure of larger angle

larger angle plus smaller angle = 180

5x + x = 180

6x = 180

x = 30°

5(30) = 150°
