Answer:
x = 70
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the lines are perpendicular then ∠ AED = 90°, thus
x + 20 = 90 ( subtract 20 from both sides )
x = 70
Answer: The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon is always 180(n-2) degrees, where n represents the number of sides of the polygon. The sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a polygon is always 360
The actual amount that needs to be divided = 85
The ratio in which the amount needs to be divided = 2:3:5
Let us assume the common ratio to be = x
Then
2x + 3x + 5x = 85
10x = 85
x = 85/10
= 8.5
Then
The ratio in which the number 85 will be divided = 2 * 8.5:3 * 8.5:5 * 8.5
= 17:25.5:42.5
So from the above deduction we can see that the number 85 can be divided in the ratio 17:25.5:42.5
let's firstly convert it to an improper fraction.
I think it would be 4.
8 breaks down to 4(2) and 12 breaks down to 4(3). Let me know if that helps!
