Question

The two triangles below are similar. What value of Q and B would make this true

Answer 1

Answer:

• ∠B = ∠Q = 26°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles B and Q should be same, therefore:

• Q = 4x + 2 and B = 15x - 64

The equation below as per above, solving for x:

• 4x + 2 = 15x - 64
• 15x - 4x = 64 +2
• 11x = 66
• x = 6

Then the angle measures:

• 4*6 + 2 = 26°
