Answer:

R__S__T

RT = RS + ST

6x – 4 = ( 4x – 3) + ST

(6x – 4 ) – ( 4x – 3 ) = ST

(6x – 4 ) +( – 4x + 3 ) = ST

2x – 1 = ST

ST = 2x – 1

RS=ST

4x – 3 = 2x – 1

4x – 2x = – 1 +3

2x = 2

x= 2/2

x =1

ST = 2x – 1 = 2(1) – 1 =2 ‐ 1 = 1

ST = 1

I hope I helped you^_^

What is the arc measure of D C in degrees

Mashutka [201]

Hello there!

Sense this is a 360 degree angle, it is divide by 2. This would then be considered 180. If you (noticed) on the other side, it shows us that . . .

$AB=19 \\ and \ AB=CD$

We then do (180-19)

$DC= \ \boxed{161}$
