Answer:

118°

Step-by-step explanation:

When two parallel lines are cut by a tranversal, then the exterior angles are supplimentary and the corresponding angles are congruent.

Therefore the angle above (15x - 17)° is also (5x + 17)° and the angle below (5x + 17)° is also (15x - 17)°.

Angles on a straight line adds up to 180°. So to know the measure of the larger angle we must both equations and equal it to 180° to find x in order to know the larger angle.

(5x + 17) + (15x - 17) = 180

5x + 15x + 17 - 17 = 180

20x = 180

20x/20 = 180/20

x = 9°

Nkw let's substitute x = 9 into the equations

5x + 17 =

5(9) + 17 =

= 62°

15x - 17 =

15(9) - 17 =

= 118°

Both equations should add up to be 180°.

Therefore the measure of the largest angle is 118°.

<u>Answer:</u>

ΔLNM is proved as isosceles triangle. Below for explanation.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We know that:

  • AMBX = Square
  • Squares have equal sides

Since AMBX is a square, AL must equal to BN because they are the extra lengths of the square. The lengths of the square are AM, MB, BX, XA.

  • Side of square + Extra length = Side of triangle

This can tell us that the two sides of the triangle are equal. We also know that if 2 sides of a triangle are equal, it is classified as an isosceles triangle. Hence, ΔLNM is proved as an isosceles triangle.

Answer:

128 km²

Step-by-step explanation:

a²+b²=c²

So, one of the sides equals 128 square rooted, because 8²=64, and 64 times 2 equals 128. The area of a square is side times side, so it's side². So, instead of simplifying the square root of 128, get rid of the square root. The answer is 128 km²
