First, write an equation system for the problem
For example, x represents the first angle and y represents the second angle
An equation for "t<span>he measure of an angle is seventeen times the measure of a complementary angle" is
</span>∴ <span>x = 17y
The sum of complementary angle is 90</span>°. It can be written as<span>
</span>∴ x + y = 90°
<span>
Second, use subtitution method to find the value of x and y
Subtitute x with 17y
x + y = 90</span>°
17y + y = 90°
18y = 90°
y = 90°/18
y = 5°
Subtitute y with 5°
x = 17y
x = 17(5)
x = 85°
The measure of each angle is 5° and 85°
Answer:
ab<6 units
Step-by-step explanation:
One of the basic property of any triangle is that the sum of the length of any two sides of a triangle is always greater than the length of the third side.
Here we are given a triangle abc, in whicn bc=4
ac= 8-ab
If have to make some conclusion about ab.
As per the property discussed above
ab<ac+bc
ab<8-ab+4
2ab<12
ab<6
Hence the length of ab must be less than 6 units
Answer:
m<B = 60°
m<C = 60°
m<F = 80°
m<G = 80°
Step-by-step explanation:
m<B = 180° - 120° = 60°
m<C = m<B = 60° (Vertically opposite angles are equal)
m<F = 180° - (40° + m<C(60°)) = 80°
m<G = 180° - (m<H + m<B) = 180° - (40° + 60°) = 80°
Answer:
a) The coordinates of the missing vertex = (7, 8)
b) Area = 18 square units
Perimeter = 18 units
Step-by-step explanation:
a) We know three of the four vertices:
A: (4, 2) C ______ D(?)
B: (7, 2) | |
C: (4, 8) A |______| B
To find the coordinates of the missing vertex we need to calculate the distance in the x-direction from point A to point B:
Hence, the distance of point D from point C in the x-direction is:
Now, to find the coordinate in "y" we need to calculate the distance in the y-direction between point C and point A:
Then, the distance of point D from point B in the y-direction is:

Therefore, the coordinates of the missing vertex (point D) are:
b) The area of the rectangle is:

The perimeter is given by:

The location of the point that is 3/4 the distance from
