Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.

50° is an exterior angle of the triangle, thus

38 + 4x - 24 = 50 , that is

14 + 4x = 50 ( subtract 14 from both sides )

4x = 36 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 9

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf x = 9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the exterior angle is equal to the sum of non-adjacent interior angles.

So,

50 = 38 + 4x - 24

50 = 4x + 14

Subtract 14 to both sides

50 - 14 = 4x

36 = 4x

Divide 4 to both sides

36 / 4 = x

x = 9

$\rule[225]{225}{2}$

Hope this helped!

Given the following triangle, if a = 12 and ∠B = 48°, find b to the nearest whole number.

Keith_Richards [23]

In the figure, the triangle ABC is a right triangle, a is the adjacent leg to the angle B, and b is the opposite side to the same angle.

So, you can use the tangent ratio which relates the angle, the opposite leg and the adjacent leg:

tangent (angle B) = b / a => b = a * tan(B)

=> b = 12 * tan(48°) = 13.33≈ 13

Find the area of the shape shown below.<br>

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First ignore the cut corner and pretend that it is just a rectangle.

The rectangle's area would be 2×4=8.

Then find out the cut corner's area.

The area of that triangle would be 1.

8-1=7 So the area of the shape is 7.
