Answer:
2,3
Step-by-step explanation:
They are the closest angles to 4.
Answer: 68
--------------------------------------
Explanation:
Segment EC is a diameter as it goes through the circle center point O. So arc EDC is 180 degrees in measure.
Arc EDC is composed of the minor arcs DE and DC.
In other words, the two minor arcs mentioned add up to 180 degrees
We want to know DE and we know that DC = 112
So,
(minor arc DE) + (minor arc DC) = arc EDC
(minor arc DE) + (minor arc DC) = 180
(minor arc DE) + (112) = 180
(minor arc DE) + 112 - 112 = 180 - 112
minor arc DE = 68
See attachment for answer:
Let us assume the first even number = n
The second consecutive even number = n + 2
The third consecutive even number = n + 4
The addition of the three consecutive even numbers is 42 and it is already given in the question. Based on the information's given in the question, the answer can be easily deduced.
Then, the equation can be written as
n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 42
3n + 6 = 42
3n = 42 - 6
3n = 36
n = 36/3
= 12
So
The first even number = 12
The second consecutive even number = n + 2
= 12 + 2
= 14
The third consecutive even number = n + 4
= 12 + 4
= 16
So the three consecutive even numbers are 12, 14, 16.
