Answer is 5=5
Answer:
x=56 and the exterior angle is 116
Step-by-step explanation:
We will call the unknown angle in the triangle y. Angle y and the angle (2x +4) form a straight line so they make 180 degrees.
y + 2x+4 =180
Solve for y by subtracting 2x+4 from each side.
y + 2x+4 - (2x+4) =180 - (2x+4)
y = 180-2x-4
y = 176-2x
The three angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees
x+ y+ 60 = 180
x+ (176-2x)+60 = 180
Combine like terms
-x +236=180
Subtract 236 from each side
-x+236-236 = 180-236
-x = -56
Multiply each side by -1
-1*-x = -56*-1
x=56
The exterior angle is 2x+4. Substitute x=56 into the equation.
2(56)+4
112+4
116
Answer:
You are right.
Step-by-step explanation:
The values corresponding to x = 3 is -5.
Answer:
8 < x < 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider an angle slightly less than 180 between the 4 and 12 ft sides. The measure between the 2 end points is slightly less than the total of the two sides. So the greatest length is 16.
Consider an angle slightly more than 0 between the 4 and 12 ft sides. The measure between the 2 end points is slightly more than the difference between the two sides. So the lowest length is 8.
