Answer: yes
Step-by-step explanation:
They both equal 1/x.
Start by breaking the radicand up into a product of known factors.
The formula is s = r * angle
Angle must be in RADIANS for the formula. Since the picture gives 135 degrees you either convert in the formula by adding the conversion factor, (s = r * angle * pi/180) or knowing that 135 degrees is 3pi/4.
s = 6 * 3* 3.14/4
s = 14.1
Since you know that PQ=RQ, you have an equilateral triangle. This makes things very simple.
Angle R should be the same as angle P.
A triangle is equal to 180 degrees.
Add angles P and R. Subtract 180 from the answer you got. That will give you 2a. a divided by 2 will give you a.
Or, since there are two right triangles, you can add 47 and 90. Subtract 180 from that and you will get a.
