Can somone help me with this 1 problem? QRST is a parallelogram. Determine the measure of ∠Q

1 answer:

3 0

(In the picture, QRST looks like a rhombus, so I will assume that it is a rhombus.)

In a rhombus, opposite angles are congruent based on the alternate interior angle theorem. In other words, R and T along with Q and S are both alternate interior angle pairs.
(You can actually test this by printing out a rhombus, cutting out the angles, and matching up the opposite ones.)

We know that Q is equal to 4x + 10, but we need to solve for x. Since Q and S are congruent, we can set them equal to each other:
1) 4x + 10 = 5x - 3
2) 4x + 13 = 5x
3) 5x = 4x + 13
4) x = 13
Now let's plug 13 in for Q:
5) 4(13) + 10 = 52+10 = 62

I got m<Q = 62 degrees. Hope this helps!

What is the additive inverse of -2 + 8i?

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

2 - 8i

Step-by-step explanation:

The additive inverse of something is basically the opposite of it. Another way to say this is that when you add the additive inverse to -2 + 8i, it will equal 0.

An example:

The additive inverse of 7 is -7 because not only is it the opposite, but also when you add 7 and -7, it equals 0.

To solve

So all you need to do is find the opposite of -2 + 8i. You can write it as:

-(-2 + 8i) With the negative in the front because we want to find the opposite.

This then equals:

2 - 8i

You can check your answer by adding -2 + 8i and 2 - 8i to see if it equals 0:

(-2 + 8i) + (2 - 8i) → and it does equal 0

ANSWER: 2 - 8i

Hope you understand and that this helps with your question! :)
