The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
An isosceles triangle has two congruent sides.
The angles opposite the congruent sides are congruent.
Just like the bottom left angle measures x, the bottom right angle also measures x.
x + x + 38 = 180
2x + 38 = 180
2x = 142
x = 71
Answer:
x=45
Step-by-step explanation:
Since AB is a straight line, it is 180 degrees
AOE + EOF + FOD + DOB = 180
15+x+2x+120-2x = 180
Combine like terms
135 +x = 180
Subtract 135 from each side
135-135 +x = 180 -135
x = 45
Given:
Circular racetrack with a diameter of 1/2 mile
Find: how far does a car travel in one lap around the track?
We need to find the circumference of the racetrack.
Circumference is multiplying pi to the diameter of the racetrack.
Circumference = 3.14 * 1/2 mile
Circumference = 3.14/2 mile
Circumference = 1.57 miles rounded to the nearest tenth is 1.60 miles.
