Answer:
x = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
180 = 100 + x +x
180-100= 2x
80 = 2x
x = 40
We know that two complements add up to 90.
Let's call the smaller angle x and the larger y.
3x = y
x + y = 90
We can use simple substitution.
x + 3x = 90
4x = 90
x = 22.5
Then, since we know that 3x=y, we can find the larger angle.
3*22.5 = 67.5
Answer:
B). SAS similarity.
Step-by-step explanation:
In Δ WVU & ΔCAB,
UV/CA = 17/34 = 1/2
&
VW/AB = 14/28 = 1/2
∵ UV/CA = VW/AB = 1/2
& ∠V = ∠A (Given)
∵ ΔWVU ≅ ΔCAB (by SAS similarity)
