Answer:
x=10
m=3
Step-by-step explanation:
The angles are the same since the sides are the same length (isosceles triangle)
55 = 5x+5
Subtract 5
55-5 =5x+5-5
50 = 5x
Divide by 5
50/5 = 5x/5
10=x
The altitude is a perpendicular bisector so
5m-3 = 2m+6
Subtract 2m from each side
5m-3-2m = 2m+6-2m
3m-3 = 6
Add 3 to each side
3m-3 +3 =6+3
3m =9
Divide by 3
3m/3 = 9/3
m =3
First set up the equation (sum of the angles is 180)
2x + 2(x-1) + (5x +2) = 180
distribute:
2x + 2x -2 + 5x +2 = 180
combine like terms:
9x = 180
solve for x:
x = 20
SO:
2x° = 2(20) = 40 degrees
2(x-1)° = 2(20) - 2 = 40 - 2 = 38 degrees
5x + 2°= 5(20) + 2 = 100 + 2=102 degrees
check: 40 + 38 + 102 = 180
