We are given an isosceles triangle.
An isosceles triangle has corresponding angles of corresponding sides same.
<em>Therefore, other angle is also of (3x+7) degrees.</em>
(5x+13) and (3x+7) makes a linear pair.
Therefore,
(5x+13) + (3x+7) = 180
5x +13 + 3x +7 = 180.
8x +20 = 180.
Subtracting 20 from both sides, we get
8x +20-20 = 180-20.
8x = 160
Dividing both sides by 8, we get
<h3>x = 20.</h3><h3>Therefore, correct option is 3rd option. </h3>
M < 2 and m < 6 are corresponding angles and are equal....so < 6 = 132.
< 6 and < 8 form a line and are equal to 180
< 6 + < 8 = 180
132 + < 8 = 180
< 8 = 180 - 132
< 8 = 48 <===
The perimeter of a rectangle, is all of the sides added up.
In a rectangle, there are two widths (right and left), and two lengths (up and down)
So:
Perimeter = 2 × width + 2 × length.
To get the equation we just substitute in the values that we are given:
length = (x)
width = (x - 4)
perimeter = 87
So just put these values into: perimeter = 2 × width + 2 × length:
87 = 2(x) + 2(x - 4)
_____________________________
Answer:
The equation is: 87 = 2(x) + 2(x - 4)
<em>(note: this can be simplified down like so:</em>
<em>87 = 2x + 2x - 8</em>
<em>87 = 4x - 8</em>
<em>95 = 4x</em>
23.75 = x
