Answer:
M∠DEC equals 123º.
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of a triangle's three angles always equal 180º. The exterior angle, x, equals the two non-adjacent interior angles.
180 - {(x - 45)+(x - 12)} = m∠DEC
m∠DEC + x = 180
<u>(x - 45) + (x - 12) = x</u>
Solving for x:
(x - 45) + (x - 12) = x
x - 45 + x - 12 = x Remove parenthesis
2x - 57 = x Combine like terms
2x = x + 57 Add 57 to both sides
<u>x = 57</u><u> Subtract x from both sides</u>
Finding m∠D:
x - 45 = ?
<u>57 - 45 = </u><u>12º </u>
Finding m∠C:
x - 12 = ?
<u>57 - 12 = </u><u>45º </u>
<em>** </em><em>(Checking x: 12 + 45 = 57) </em><em>**</em>
<em>Finding </em>m∠DEC:
AC is a straight line, and because straight lines are equivalent to 180º, we subtract 57 from 180:
180 - 57 = 123º

When a figure is dilated, this means the corresponding sides of the shape is enlarged in a uniform multiple. In this case, the ratio of the sides remains the same. Thus, when ratio of the sides remain the same, the corresponding angles are also congruent in the dilated figure. The answer here is B. similar
