<h3>
Answer: RJ = 10</h3>
=======================================================
Explanation:
Recall that midsegments are half as long as the side they are parallel to. In this case, midsegment PQ is parallel to segment GJ. This means PQ is half as long as GJ. Phrased another way, we can say GJ is twice as long as PQ.
So,
GJ = 2*PQ
Also, we can see that GR = RJ due to the triple tickmarks they share. This leads to GJ = GR+RJ = RJ+RJ = 2*RJ
Or in short,
GJ = 2*RJ
---------
In summary we can see that
equating both right hand sides leads to
2RJ = 2PQ
RJ = PQ
Because PQ is 10 units, this means RJ is also 10 units.
--------------------
Another way to see why PQ = RJ is to notice how triangles HPQ and QRJ are congruent triangles (use SAS to prove this). The corresponding pieces PQ and RJ are the same length, so PQ = RJ = 10.
Let's make another angle y
Where y= 51° (corresponding angles )
and x+y= 180°. ( linear pair )
x+51°= 180° (y=51°)
x=180°-51°
x= 129°
<u>So the value of x is 129</u>°
Hope you got your answer !
The answer would be 12 to the -10 because with multiplication you you add the -4 and -6

Answer:
I don't really know but one triangle is 180 degrees so two added together is 360 degrees...
but ohh I remembered
a=c+d (since a+b=180 and c+d+b=180)
e=g+h (since e+f=180 and g+h+f= 180)
and the fact is that c+d+g+h+b+f=the angle sum of quadrilateral PQRS
a+e+b+f= the angle sum of quadrilateral PQRS (by substitutions)
a+e+b+f=360 (four angles are from one origin so it's 360 degrees )
