If he catches 2 out of 5, that mean he catches 14 out of x. We multiply 2 by 7 to get 14, so we multiply 7 by 5 to get 35. 35 balls were thrown at him. To check your work you can simply simplify 14/35 to get 2 out of 5 again. Hope this helps!

Enter the numbethat belongs in the green box.What does measure angle b equal?
gladu [14]

Angle B corresponds to angle D, therefore they are equal. To find Angle B's length, add the two known angle measures then subtract the sum from 180. (All angle measures in a triangle equal 180 when added)

32 + 41 = 73

180 - 73 = 107

<h3>Answer:</h3>

<u>Angle B = </u><u>107º </u>

hope this helps :)
