Answer:
x = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right angle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find x. In the formula, a^2 + b^2 = c^2, variables a and b represent the lengths of the legs, and variable c represents the length of the hypotenuse.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
18^2 + x^2 = 30^2
324 + x^2 = 900
x^2 = 576
x = 24
The Given Triangle PMO is a Right Angled Triangle with m∠M = 90°
Given m∠P = 40°
We know that : Sum of Angles in a Triangle = 180°
⇒ m∠P + m∠M + m∠O = 180°
⇒ 40° + 90° + m∠O = 180°
⇒ 130° + m∠O = 180°
⇒ m∠O = 180° - 130°
⇒ m∠O = 50°
We can notice that m∠O and m∠1 form a Linear Pair (180°)
⇒ m∠O + m∠1 = 180°
⇒ 50° + m∠1 = 180°
⇒ m∠1 = 180° - 50°
⇒ m∠1 = 130°
Last Option is the Answer
Answer:
x = 1/3
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
4x + 1 = 3 - 2x
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Add 2x on both sides: 6x + 1 = 3
- Subtract 1 on both sides: 6x = 2
- Divide 6 on both sides: x = 1/3
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute: 4(1/3) + 1 = 3 - 2(1/3)
- Multiply: 4/3 + 1 = 3 - 2/3
- Add/Subtract: 7/3 = 7/3
Here we see that 7/3 does indeed equal 7/3.
∴ x = 1/3 is a solution of the equation.
