What type of angle is it? What is the measurement?

romanna [79]

Below I have included an image that has the measure of all of the angles on it.

We can find the measures of the angles here due to the laws about complimentary angles. A pair of complimentary angles can be formed when 2 lines are perpendicular, and when added together, will always equal 90. The pair are the angles that are not directly adjacent from each other. In this figure, "x" and "(4x-10)" are a pair. According to another law, opposite angles, or adjacent angles, will always be equal to each other. Using the logic above is how we can find the measure of all angles.

Since one angle has a box, we know the lines are perpendicular, and that the laws of complimentary angles apply. We can also use that to see that the angle diagonal from it is equal to 90.

To solve for the other measures, we need to add the 2 equations together and set them equal to 90 (because of that law we talked about before).

x+(4x-10)=90
5x-10=90
+10+10
5x=100
/5 /5
x=20

Now that we know x equals 20, we can substitute that value in and solve.

x=20

=(4x-10)
=(4*20-10)
=(80-10)
=70

We also know this is correct because 20 and 70 equal 90.

Which sequence of events affecting moist air within Earth’s atmosphere causes cloud formation?

IrinaVladis [17]

The correct answer is - (1) rising expanding cooling condensation.

At first there's the evaporation of water, since the water vapor is less dense than the air it rises up and starts to expend as it goes further upwards in the atmosphere. Once it reaches the upper layers of the troposphere than the cooling process starts because the temperature is decreasing with the altitude. Because of the cooling the process of condensation will start taking place and thus the formation of clouds were the water vapor returns to liquid form and creates rain. The cycle repeats its self all the time.

Describe the major physical and human features of the location where you live, such as the landscape, weather, and population. W

Ne4ueva [31]

I live in the Republic of Macedonia, Tikvesh area, town of Negotino. The area that falls in the borders of the municipality in which I live has climate that is very variable. The summers are heavily influenced by the Mediterranean climate, so they are hot and dry, the winters are heavily influenced by the continental air masses, so they are cold and dry, while the spring and autumn are moderate and are also the rainiest periods of the year. The precipitations varies a lot from year to year, and it can be anywhere from 250 to 750 mm. The landscape is dominated by a valley, naturally being a grassland, but now heavily used for agriculture, mostly wine trees. The eastern side is bordered by a mountain of slightly over 1,000 m, while the southern part is bordered by a volcanic plateau. The population is slightly more than 20,000, and it has been like that for around two decades now. The main reason why there haven't been significant changes is that the birthrates have dropped, while the life expectancy has increased, so the population is gradually aging.

In this description I have used three geographic themes, location, human/environment interactions, and place.
