let's hope for the best ....XD
The topics you should learn are equating denominators and fractions. This is summing up simple fractions.
So we have to make denominators' numbers the same in order to sum up them all (we can sum fractions if the denominators are the same) , and we did it by cross product (that thing on the picture)
Equating by lcm (least common multiple) is the easiest way, because you might see bigger numbers on other questions, and cross product will bring much bigger numbers, so this technic might confuse you.
By the way lcm of 4 and 5 is already 20
Hope it helps!
Answer:
x=27°
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
<u><em>The Triangle Exterior Angle Theorem</em></u>, states that: An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles
step 1
Find the measure of angle PLM
we know that
m∠PLM+m∠LPM=m∠PMN ----> by Triangle Exterior Angle Theorem
we have
m∠LPM=x°
m∠PMN=2x+72°
substitute
m∠PLM+x=2x+72°
m∠PLM=2x-x+72°
m∠PLM=x+72°
step 2
Find the measure of angle x
we know that
3x+m∠PLM=180° ----> by supplementary angles (form a linear pair)
we have
m∠PLM=x+72° (see step 1)
substitute
3x+x+72°=180°
4x=180°-72°
4x=108°
x=27°
