Answer:
d. 24
Step-by-step explanation:
m∠10 ≅ m∠12 cause they're alternate exterior angles and im taking geometry rn:)
m∠10 = 3x - 2
m∠12 = 70
3x - 2 = 70
3x = 72
x = 24
Answer:
m=-1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope formula which you will need is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
The two y values are 3 and 1
The corresponding x values are -9 and -1
(3-1)/(-9-1)
2/(-10)
Simplify
-1/5

now.. hmmm -8/15 is rather ambiguous, since the negative sign is in front of the rational, and either 8 or 15 can be negative, now, we happen to choose the 8 to get the minus, but it could have been 8/-15
ok, well hmm so, the issue boils down to

now, let's take a peek at the second angle, angle β

now, with that in mind, let's use the angle sum identity for cosine
