I’m not sure what the rule would be in this context, but those are just the squares of decreasing numbers starting at 10. It’s 10^2, then 9^2, then 8^2, and so on.
The answer is 61. hope that help.
Let A and B be the two complementary angles.
A = smaller angle = 2x
B = larger angle = 13x
x = some unknown number
Note how the ratio A:B turns into 2x:13x which simplifies to 2:13
A+B = 90 ... because the angles are complementary
2x+13x = 90 ... substitution
15x = 90
x = 90/15
x = 6
A = 2*x = 2*6 = 12 degrees
B = 13*x = 13*6 = 78 degrees
The two angles are 12 degrees and 78 degrees.
Check:
A/B = 12/78 = (2*6)/(13*6) = 2/13, so A:B = 2:13
A+B = 12+78 = 90
Draw the tape diagram: a long rectangle and divide it into 4 squares in a row.The whole rectangle represents 24 (as a whole number), you're dividing it into 4 parts because you want to know what is 1/4 of it.Now, to find the value of each square: 24:4 = 6.Put the number 6 in each square, and you have found your result.1/4 of 24 is 6.
