The angles inside a triangle add up to 180°
The 3rd angle is supplementary to (6x+1)°
Supplementary means they make a straight line (i.e 180°)
1st angle = 79°
2nd angle = (2x+10)°
3rd angle = 180° - (6x+1)°
180 = 79 + (2x+10) + 180 - (6x+1)
180 = 79 + 2x + 10 + 180 - 6x - 1
combine like terms
180 - 180 - 79 - 10 + 1 = 2x - 6x
-88 = -4x
-88/-4 = x
22 = x
3x - 5 = 2x is the equation
Answer: y=-(1/8)x+(21/2)
Explanation:
The new equation’s slope needs to be perpendicular to y=8x-1
To get the new slope, we take the negative reciprocal of the slope from above
8 —> -1/8
Now we have y=-(1/8)x+b but it needs to pass through (4,10), so we need to find the value of b that makes this possible.
Since (4,10) is in the form of (x,y) we can plug in these values into the new equation to solve for b:
y=-(1/8)x+b
10=-(1/8)4+b
10=(-1/2)+b
b=(21/2)
Now put b back into the new equation
y=-(1/8)x+b
y=-(1/8)x+(21/2)
let the line between 2 tria be y
sin 60/8√2 = sin 90/y
y=13.06
sin 45/13.06 = sin 90/x
x=18.46
