Answer:

The angles are 69.2 degrees and 20.8 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles, when added together, = 90°

We’ll call the first unknown angle a and the second angle b

b = a - 48.4

a + b = 90

So let’s substitute in for b in the second equation:

a + a - 48.4 = 90

2a - 48.4 = 90

2a = 138.4

a = 69.2

69.2 - 48.4 = 20.8 = b

Now, does a + b = 90?

69.2 + 20.8 = 90

8+—3(6+—6a) help please

LenKa [72]

We know that:

$(+)+(-)=(-)$

and:

$(-)*(+)=(-)$

$8+(-3)[6+(-6a)]=8+(-3)*6+(-3)*(-6a)=8-18+18a$ $=(-10)+18a$

if you have solve for $a$ then:

$(-10)+18a=0$
$18a=10$
$a= \frac{10}{18}$
$a=\frac{5}{9}$

If line segment AB represents 25%, what is the length of a line segment that is 100%?

kicyunya [14]

If I am correctly understanding the question, I think the length of the line segment would be 4AB

Step-by-step explanation:

25% = 1/4

AB = 1/4

100% = 4/4

AB*4 = 4AB

Multiply AB by 4 to find the value that 100% would equal, resulting in 4AB.
