Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive angles in a parallelogram are supplementary, thus

∠ A + ∠ B = 180, substitute values

9x + 8 + 8x + 2 = 180, that is

17x + 10 = 180 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

17x = 170 ( divide both sides by 17 )

x = 10

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle A +Angle B = 180°

therefore

8x+2+9x+8 =180

17x+10 = 180

17x = 170

x = 10

Help what is the slope of the line?

Answer:

8/5 = 1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

It looks like the line crosses grid points (-4, -4) and (1, 4). This means the slope is ...

m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

m = (4 -(-4))/(1 -(-4)) = 8/5 = 1.6

The slope of the line seems to be about 8/5, or 1.6.

Write the definition of midpoint, provide a supporting figure

givi [52]

Step-by-step explanation: Using the diagram shown which I have provided in the image attached, the definition of a midpoint states that M is the midpoint of segment LN, then segment LN ≅ to MN.

The definition of a midpoint can also be stated the other way around. using the diagram shown, if segment LN ≅ to segment MN, then M is the midpoint of segment LN.

We can use hash marks in the figure to show that are 2 segments are congruent.
