Use the Pythagorean Theorem of a² + b² = c² to solve for x.
x² + (x + 3)² = (√117)²
x² + x² + 6x + 9 = 117
2x² + 6x + 9 = 117
2x² + 6x + 9 - 117 = 0
2x² + 6x - 108 = 0
2x² + 18x - 12x - 108 = 0
2x(x + 9) - 12(x + 9) = 0
(2x - 12)(x + 9) = 0
x = - 9, 6
Length cannot be negative so you can't use - 9.
x = 6. Option C is your answer.
4x/9 = 5/27
Multiply both sides by 9 to give
4x = 45/27
Now multiply both sides by 27 to give
108x = 45
Now divide both sides by 108 to give
x = 45/108
Reduce the fraction to give
x = 5/12
ANSWER
139°
EXPLANATION
One of the interior angle properties of a parallelogram is that adjacent interior angles are supplementary.
This means that, the adjacent interior angles add up to 180°.

Then
OR
Answer:
145
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 2 , y= 5
Putting the values of x and y in the expression
=3(2) (5)^2-5
=3(2)(25)-5
=150 -5
=145
