A=length x height. First we want to know the area of the original sheet of paper. 8.5 x 11= 93.5 inches squared. Then we take two squares with side length 2 inches. The area of each of these squares is 2 x 2, or 4 inches. Since there are two, the total area we take away is 8 inches. We subtract 8 inches from 93.5 since we took it away, and the final area of the paper is 85.5 inches^{2}
Hope this helped!
- Two angles that are complements of each other add to equal 90 degrees (they are complementary angles).
- One angle measures x degrees.
- The other angle measures 25 more than 4 times the angle that measures x degrees; it measures 4x + 25 degrees.
To find x, set the sum of these expressions (x and 4x + 25) equal to 90 and solve algebraically for x.
90 = x + (4x + 25)
90 = x + 4x + 25
90 = 5x + 25
65 = 5x
13 = x
If you wanted to find the measure of angle x, you'd substitute 13 for x in its expression, 4x + 25.
4x + 25
4(13) + 25
52 + 25
77
Answer:
x = 13
m∠x = 77°
Answer:
∠NQP = 74°
Step-by-step explanation:
NPQ is a triangle.
We know the sum of 3 angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. So we can write:
N + P + Q = 180
2x + 34 + 2x + 2 = 180
Now, we can solve for x:

The measure of NQP is "2x+2", we plug in x = 36, and find the measure of NQP:
∠NQP = 2(36) + 2 = 74°
