The figure shows a triangle with an angle bisector. If angle SUT= 34°, find the measurement of angle 1?

Burka [1]

The ANGLE BISECTOR mentioned in the problem is simply just a line that separates an angle in half.

Meaning if it bisects ∠SUT which is 34. It just means that it divides the angle 34 into 2 equal parts.

Therefore ∠1 is just one-half of the ∠SUT.

$\begin{gathered} m\angle1=\frac{\angle SUT}{2} \\ m\angle1=\frac{34}{2} \\ m\angle1=17 \end{gathered}$

Therefore the measurement of ∠1 is 17°.

the stove you have to bake in is an old one and only has the temperature in ° Fahrenheit. You are making rusks and have to dry t

nalin [4]

Answer:

$80^{\circ} C$

Step-by-step explanation:

You are making rusks and have to dry them overnight at a temperature of 176° F.

The given temperature is in Fahrenheit. We need to convert it into °C.

The relation between Fahrenheit and °C is given by :

$C=\dfrac{5}{9}(F-32)$

Put F = 176

So,

$C=\dfrac{5}{9}(176-32)\\\\C=\dfrac{5}{9}\times 144\\\\C=80^{\circ} C$

So, the temperature is equal to $80^{\circ} C$ .
