Answer:

y = 1.2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The given original amount is x.

Increase = 20%

Increase = $\frac{20}{100}$

Increase = 0.2

Amount of increment = 0.2x

Total amount = Original amount + Amount of increment

y = x + 0.2x

y = 1.2x

In AFGH, FG – HF and mZF = 56°. Find m_H.

nevsk [136]

Answer:

m<H = 62°

Step-by-step explanation:

If FG is congruent to HF, it means their opposite angles are also congruent to each other. This implies that, <H = <G. Thus, ∆FGH is an isosceles triangle with base angles <F and <G.

Given that m<F = 56°, therefore:

56° + 2(m<H) = 180° (sum of triangle)

2(m<H) = 180° - 56°

2(m<H) = 124°

m<H = 124/2

m<H = 62°
