What is the correct equation to find the value of X?

Mathematics
1 answer:
vagabundo [1.1K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 angles shown are corresponding angles and congruent, thus

8x - 17 = 5x + 19 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

3x - 17 = 19 ( add 17 to both sides )

3x = 36 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 12

Answer:

JK = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

JK ≅ JM

where

JK = 3x - 16

JM = 2x - 7

3x - 16 = 2x - 7

group like terms

3x - 2x = 16 - 7

x = 9

<u>plugin x=9 into JK</u>

JK = 3x - 16

JK = 3(9) - 16

JK = 11

In triangle MNO shown below, segment NP is an altitude:
Effectus [21]

Answer:  C. Definition of an Altitude

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In triangle MNO shown below, segment NP is an altitude from the right angle.

Let ∠MNP=x

Then ∠PNO=90°-x

Therefore in triangle MNO,

∠MPN=∠NPO =90°  [by definition of Altitude]

[Definition of altitude : A line which passes through a vertex of a triangle, and joins the opposite side forming right angles. ]

Now using angle sum property in ΔMNP

∠MNP+∠MPN+∠PMN=180°

⇒x+90°+∠PMN=180°

⇒∠PMN=180°-90°-x

⇒∠PMN=90°-x

Now, in ΔMNO and ΔPNO

∠PMN=∠PNO=90°-x

and ∠MPN=∠NPO =90°  [by definition of altitude]

Therefore by AA similarity postulate, we have

ΔMNO ≈ ΔPNO
