Answer:

m<HJK = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m<HJK = 3x - 2

m<KJL = 50°

Required:

m<HJK

Solution:

m<HJK + m<KJL = 90° (complementary angle)

Substitute

3x - 2 + 50 = 90

Add like terms

3x + 48 = 90

3x + 48 - 48 = 90 - 48

3x = 42

3x/3 = 42/3

x = 14

✅m<HJK = 3x - 2

Plug in the value of x

m<HJK = 3(14) - 2 = 42 - 2

m<HJK = 40°

A square room has a tiled floor with 81 square tiles. How many tiles are along an edge of the room?

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

36 tiles

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the room is square, the numbers of tiles along the edge of the room were multiplied by the same number, meaning that:

81 = x²

So to find x, we must square root both sides of the equation:

$\sqrt{81} = \sqrt{x^2}$

x = 9

So the length of one side is 9 tiles. Now to calculate the circumference, as each side of a square is the same length, we can multiply this number by 4:

9 * 4 = 36

So there are 36 tiles along the edge of the room.

Hope this helps!
