Problem 44
The term "bisect" means "cut in half".
Since BD bisects angle ABC, this means the smaller angles ABD and DBC are congruent.
angle ABD = angle DBC
x+15 = 4x-45
15+45 = 4x-x
60 = 3x
3x = 60
x = 60/3
x = 20
<h3>Answer: x = 20</h3>
========================================================
Problem 45
We use the same idea as the previous problem
angle ABD = angle DBC
2x+35 = 5x-22
35+22 = 5x-2x
57 = 3x
3x = 57
x = 57/3
x = 19
<h3>Answer: x = 19</h3>
Answer:
160
Step-by-step explanation:
(2.5 x 2)+(1.5 x 2) =8 (perimeter of scale)
8x20 = 160
Answer:
9(x + 2) = x - 6
9x+18=x-6
9x-x=-18-6
8x=-24
x=-24/8=-3 is your answer
Answer:
The actual measure of ∠1 = 40°
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given: ∠1 = 2x+6 and ∠2 = 8x+4
and both angles are supplementary. we need to find the actual measure of ∠1
Supplementary angles: If the angles are supplementary their sum is equal to 180°
In our case ∠1 +∠2 = 180°
2x+6+8x+4=180
Solving the equation to find x, then we can find the actual measure of ∠1

So, value of x = 17
Now, finding actual measure of ∠1 by putting x=17 in equation 2x+6

So, the actual measure of ∠1 = 40°
