Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It is important to remember that, by definition, the measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two non-adjacent interior angles.
In this case we can idenfity that the angle 
is an exterior angle of the triangle QRT. Then:
Where:
Substituting values and solving for "x", we get:
Then:
The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°, therefore:
Solving for 
, we get:
Answer:
8.1 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a triangle = ½ × base × height = Area
Rearranged =
Base is the length by the way.
=8.1 inches
For example, 3/5.
3/5 = 0.6.
1/2 = 0.5
2/3 = 0.6666
0.5 -- 0.6 -- 0.66666666
Answer:
x = -8
y = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 7y = 9
2x - 3y = -37
1.) First, multiply each side to match either y-values or x-values. (In this example, we'll use match x-values)
10x + 14y = 18 (multiplied by 2)
10x - 15y = -185 (multiplied by 5)
2.) Then, subtract the entirety of one equation to isolate the y-value.
10x + 14y = 18
-10x + 15y = 185
3.) Add and subtract values and divide to find y.
29y = 203
y = 7
4.) Plug-in y to solve for x into one equation, or repeat steps 1-3.
15x + 21y = 27
14x - 21y = -259
29x = -232
x = -8
