In a triangle, the measure of the first angle is twice the measure of the second angle. The measure of the third angle is 80° mo

re than the measure of the second angle. Use the fact that the sum of the measures of the three angles of a triangle is 180° to find the measure of each angle. what is the measure of the first angle?​

Answer:

The measure of the first angle is 50°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three angles be <em>a, b, </em>and <em>c. </em>

<em />

The measure of the first angle is twice the measure of the second angle. In other words:

a=2b

The measure of the third angle is 80° more than the measure of the second angle. In other words:

c=b+80

And since the interior angles of a triangle must equal 180°:

a+b+c=180

Substitute <em>a</em> and <em>c: </em>

<em />(2b)+b+(b+80)=180<em />

Combine like terms:

4b+80=180

Subtract 80 from both sides:

4b=100

And divide both sides by four:

b=25^\circ

So, the measure of the second angle is 25°.

Since the measure of the first is twice the second, the measure of the first angle is 50°.

(And since the measure of the third is 80° than the second, the measure of the third angle is 105°.)

Find four consecutive multiples of 3 such that the product of the first, third, and fourth is 1080
Dovator [93]

Answer:

<u>Therefore, we have 6, 9, 12, and 15, that are the first, second, third and fourth consecutive multiples of 3, such the product of 6, 12 and 15 is 1,080.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the factors of 1,080, as follows:

1,080 Dividing by 2 (1,080/2)

540 Dividing by 2 (540/2)

270 Dividing by 2 (270/2)

135 Dividing by 3 (135/3)

45 Dividing by 3 (45/3)

15 Dividing by 3 (15/3)

5 Dividing by 5 (5/5)

1

In consequence, we have:

5 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 2 * 2 * 2

Let's find out what multiples of 3 there are:

5 * 3 = 15 is a multiple of 3,

And 3 * 3 * 2 * 2 * 2 is remaining.

3 * 2 = 6 is also a multiple of 3,

And 3 * 2 * 2 is remaining

3 * 2 * 2 = 12 is also a multiple of 3.

<u>Therefore, we have 6, 9, 12, and 15, that are the first, second, third and fourth consecutive multiples of 3, such the product of 6, 12 and 15 is 1,080.</u>

Write a simplified polynomial expression in standard form to represent the area of the rectangle below.
JulijaS [17]
Given:
Rectangle shape.
One side: 5x + 2
other side: x - 4

Area = length * width
Area = (5x+2)(x-4)
A = 5x(x-4) +2(x-4)
A = 5x² - 20x + 2x - 8
A = 5x² - 18x - 8
