Your question has been heard loud and clear.

let the ratio be m:n

From section formula

(-3n + 4m)/(m+n) = 2

-3n + 4m = 2m+2n

5n = 2m

m/n = 5/2

m:n = 5:2

Refer the diagram at the right. identify each angle pair as adjacent, vertical, or neither 7-12

Oxana [17]

Adjacent angles are angles that are side by side (right next to each other). They share a side. #7 and 11 are pairs of adjacent angles.

Vertical angles are angles that are directly across from each other. They are the same angle. #8 and 9 are vertical angles.

#10 and 12 do not fit either of these descriptions so they are neither.
