x = 4 and x = - 9
In both cases the angles inside the parallel lines are same sided interior angles
24x - 1 + 20x + 5 = 180
44x + 4 = 180 (subtract 4 from both sides )
44x = 176 ( divide both sides by 44 )
x = = 4
Similarly
x + 109 + x + 89 = 180
2x + 198 = 180 ( subtract 198 from both sides )
2x = - 18
x = = - 9
Answer:
√65/2 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the diagram attached
Area of the triangle = 1/2 * base * height
To get the base and height, we will use the distance formula;
Area of the triangle LMN = 1/2 * LM * MN
For MN
Given the coordinate M(3, 2) and N(1, 3)
MN = √(3-2)²+(1-3)²
MN = √1²+(-2)²
MN = √1+4
MN = √5
For LM;
Given the coordinate L(1, -1) and M(3, 2)
LM = √(2-(-1))²+(3-1)²
LM = √(2+1)²+(2)²
LM = √3²+(2)²
LM = √9+4
LM = √13
Area of the triangle LMN = 1/2 * √13 * √5
Area of the triangle LMN = √65/2 square units
