Problem 1
The two angles 6x and 30 are vertical angles, so they are congruent or the same in measure.
6x = 30
x = 30/6
x = 5 is the answer
====================================================
Problem 2
The two angles form a straight angle which is 180 degrees. We consider them a linear pair (since they are adjacent and supplementary).
So,
5x+(3x+12) = 180
8x+12 = 180
8x = 180-12
8x = 168
x = 168/8
x = 21 is the answer
Answer:
just post them all in one question instead of a ton of different questions. it's annoying.
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>
Answer: y = 14</h3>
===================================
Explanation:
The two angles involving x add up to 180 degrees. This is because they are same side interior angles (and because the horizontal lines are parallel)
So,
(angle BCF) + (angle EFC) = 180
(5x - 66) + (2x + 50) = 180
5x - 66 + 2x + 50 = 180
7x - 16 = 180
7x - 16+16 = 180+16 ... add 16 to both sides
7x = 196
7x/7 = 196/7 .... divide both sides by 7
x = 28
This will be used to help find y
Notice how the angles BCF and ACD are vertical angles, therefore they are congruent or the same measure
angle ACD = angle BCF
9y - 52 = 5x - 66
9y - 52 = 5*28 - 66 ..... replace x with 28 (since x = 28)
9y - 52 = 140 - 66
9y - 52 = 74
9y - 52+52 = 74+52 .... add 52 to both sides
9y = 126
9y/9 = 126/9 .... divide both sides by 9
y = 14
B since you can rewrite it as (2x+7)(x-4)=0 and you can solve it and you get B
