Answer:

24 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Christopher's age=c

Since Christopher is 20 years younger than Ishaan.

Ishaan's age=c+20

Fourteen years ago, Ishaan was three times as old as Christopher.

Their ages 14 years ago are:

For Christopher: c-14

For Ishaan: (c+20)-14

Therefore:

3(c-14)=c+6

3c-42=c+6

3c-c=6+42

2c=48

Divide both sides by 2

c=24

Christopher is 24 years old.

In the given figure, find m∠RST, if m∠RSU = 43º and m∠UST = 23º.
pickupchik [31]

Applying the angle addition postulate, the measure of angle RST is: 66°.

<h3>What is the Angle Addition Postulate?</h3>

If two angles share a common vertex and a common side, they are adjacent angles that form a larger angle. According to the angle addition postulate, the sum of these two adjacent angles will give a sum that is equal to the measure of the larger angle they both form.

We know the following:

Measure of angle RSU = 43º

Measure of angle UST = 23º

In the diagram given, angle RSU and angle UST are adjacent angles that form a larger angle, angle RST.

Therefore, based on the angle addition postulate, the measure of angle RST = sum of the measures of angles RSU and UST.

Therefore, we would have:

m∠RST = m∠RSU + m∠UST

Substitute

m∠RST = 43 + 23

m∠RST = 66°

Help plz<br><br> What different and similar between Rectangle and square
podryga [215]
The major difference between square and rectangle is that a square has all its sides equal whereas a rectangle has its opposite sides equal. In Geometry, we have learnt different types of shapes such as square, rectangle, cube, cone, cylinder, parallelogram, rhombus, and so on.

Definition of Square and Rectangle
Square: A square is a closed two-dimensional plane figure with four sides. All the four sides of the square are of equal measure. Also, the four interior angles of a quadrilateral are of 9o degrees. In other words, a square is considered as a quadrilateral or a 4-sided polygon. Since all the angles are of equal measure, it is considered as an equiangular quadrilateral.

Rectangle: A rectangle is a quadrilateral with four sides. The opposite side of a rectangle is parallel to each other. It means that the opposite faces of the rectangle are of equal measure. A rectangle has four angles, each measuring about 90 degrees. As like square, a rectangle is also called an equiangular quadrilateral.
