Answer:

x = 12

∠A = 144°

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the alternate exterior angles theorem, ∠A and ∠B are equal, so:

10x + 24 = 6x + 72

subtract 24 from both sides

10x = 6x + 48

subtract 6x from both sides

4x = 48

divide both sides by 4

x = 12

So ∠A is

10(12) + 24 = 120 + 24 = 144

∠A and ∠B are both 144, no need to do this to ∠B as like i said before, they are congruent, but just in case

6(12) + 72 = 72 + 72 = 144

2. Suppose (220)_b and (251)_b are the squares of consecutive integers. Determine b.

Andrei [34K]

Let $x$ and $x+1$ be these consecutive integers. For some base $b$ , we can write

$(x_{10})^2=220_b=2b^2+2b$

$((x+1)_{10})^2=251_b=2b^2+5b+1$

$x^2=2b^2+2b$

then

$x^2+1=2b^2+2b+1$

Now,

$x^2+2x+1=2b^2+5b+1$

$2x+2b^2+2b+1=2b^2+5b+1$

$\implies2x=3b$

Squaring both sides gives

$4x^2=9b^2$

and so

$4(2b^2+2b)=9b^2$

$\implies8b^2+8b=9b^2$

$\implies b^2-8b=0\implies\boxed{b=8}$

(because the base has to be non-zero)
