Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a line from S to T'
T' is where the angle PTQ intersects the circle when SR is extended so that it hits the circumference of the circle.
This line bisects the 50 degree angle (which is given. It also bisects PRS.
y is shown on the diagram.
Your first job is to find y
It's y + 90 + 25 = 180 because all triangles are made up of 180 degrees.
y it turns out is 65 degrees.
Now comes the interesting part. PRT' is supplementary to y. It is labeled as 180 - y
<PRT' + Y = 180
y = 65
<PRT' = 180 - 65 = 115
Since PRT' = 115 and since PR = PT' (They are both radii). x/2 + x/2+ 115 = 180 I'll talk about x/2 down below this.
x + 115 = 180 All triangles = 180
x = 65.
Where did x/2 come? As long as PTQ is situated on the arc that it is on then <PTQ is always going to be x. You will have to piece together the two diagrams to make this work.i
It's a very good application of circles and lines well worth your time to get to know.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Number of students in soccer club, n(S) = 50
Number of students in Art club, n(A) = 53
Number of students in Gaming club, n(G)
n() = 100
n() = 9
n() = 20
n() = 35
n() = 29
Formula:
n ( A ∪ B ∪ C ) = n(A) + n(B) + n(C) – n ( A ∩ B ) – n(B ∩ C) – n (A ∩ C) + n( A ∩ B ∩ C )
Putting the values:
100 = 50 + 53 + n(G) - 20 - 35 - 29 + 9
100 = 112 + n(G) - 84
n(G) = 72
Number of students in gaming club only = n(G) - n() - n(
) + n(
)
= 72 - 35 - 29 + 9
= <em>17</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. making the equation:
shoes = x
shirts = y
175 = x + 3y
x = 4y
2. graph it (I'm using desmos)
the green line is for 175 = x + 3y and the purple one is for x = 4y
3. find the price
x = 4y
175 = 4y + 3y
175 = 7y
y = 175/7 = $25
price of the shirt = $25
x = 4y = 4*25 = $100
price of a pair of shoes = $100
