Answer:

  WX = 33

  (x, y) = (2, 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

The hash marks tell you WX is a midline, so has the measure of the average of the two bases.

  WX = (PQ +SR)/2 = (27 +39)/2 = 66/2

  WX = 33

__

The hash marks also tell you ...

  PW = WS

  y +4x = 18 . . . . . . substitute the given expressions

and also

  QX = XR

  2y +x = 22 . . . . . substitute the given expressions

__

If you solve the first equation for y, you get ...

  y = 18 -4x

Substituting that into the second equation gives ...

  2(18-4x) +x = 22

  36 -7x = 22 . . . . . . . simplify

  14 = 7x . . . . . . . . . . . add 7x-22 to both sides

  2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 7

  y = 18 -4(2) = 10 . . . find y using the above relation

The values of x and y are 2 and 10, respectively.

__

My favorite "quick and dirty" way to solve a set of linear equations is using a graphing calculator. It works well for integer solutions.

Measure E is equal to?
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

114

Step-by-step explanation:

Since DE and EF are equal, DEF is an isosceles triangles.

In isosceles triangle, two angles are equal.

So,

∠F = ∠D = 33

Sum of interior angles in a triangles is 180,

∠D + ∠F + ∠E = 180

33 + 33 + ∠E = 180

∠E = 180 - 33 - 33

∠E = 114
