The angle supplementary to x and 3x are equal.
Supplementary angles = 180
Solution
x + 3x = 180
4x = 180 Divide by 4
4x/4 = 180/4
x = 45
The angle supplementary to x is 3x
3x = 3*45
3x = 135
This angle is vertically opposite y. Vertically opposite angles are equal. So y = 135
Answer
x = 45
y = 135

Answer: 65.94
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the area of the middle circle.
3.14 x 2² = 12.56
Pretend the white area doesn't exist and find the area of the shaded region.
3.14 x 5² = 78.5
Then subtract.
78.5 - 12.56 = 65.94
A property from geometry states that rectangles have congruent opposite sides. Thus, no matter which diagonal Reggie cuts, it still has the same lengths. Since it's a rectangle and we cut from corner to corner, we create a right triangle. See the picture below:
<u>___________12 inches_______</u>
7 |
i |
n |
Because it's a rectangle, it won't matter which corner we cut. But if we fold at the cut lines, we would make an in the rectangle's center.
The cut line and two sides make a right triangle. One leg is 12, one leg is 7, and we need to find the third side. The Pythagorean Theorem - sum of the squares of the legs equals the square of the hypotenuse - is applied.
Let S = the length of the side from corner to corner
S² = 12² + 7²
S² = 144 + 49
S² = 193
S = √193 or -√193
Because we are dealing with lengths, we only want positive numbers. -√193 is not used. Thus S = √193
S = √193 = 13.8924439894
S = 18.92 (rounded to two places)
Thus, Reggie will cut 18.92 inches of paper.
