55°
Step-by-step explanation:
110+15+x =180
x = 180 - 125
x = 55°
A)
The question tells us that
y + z = 180
And
y=3x+20
z=x
So we put them in the first formula:
y + z = 180
(3x + 20) + x = 180
Add and get x to one side:
4x + 20 = 180
4x + 20 - 20 = 180-20
4x = 160
Divide both sides by 4
x = 40
B)
Put x back in to equation to get size of each angle:
Y =3x +20
Y=3(40)+20
Y=120+20
Y=140
Z=x
Z=40
Verify: y+z=180
140+40=180
180=180
By looking at the statement I derived,
32 = 8 * 4
Answer:
7 cm, 16 cm, 19 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s represent the length of the shortest side in cm. The longest side is 3s-2, and the other side is 2s+2. The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths.
P = s + (3s -2) +(2s +2)
42 = 6s . . . . . simplify, use the given value of perimeter
7 = s . . . . . . . divide by 6
2s+2 = 16
3s -2 = 19
The side lengths are 7 cm, 16 cm, and 19 cm.
