Quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in a circle. m A is 64°, m B is (6x + 4)°, and m C is (9x - 1)°. What is m D?. a.) 64° . b.) 82°
Mandarinka [93]
In a cyclic quadrilateral, the opposite angles add up to 180 degrees.

Opposite angle to angle A = Angle D.

A + D = 180

64 + D = 180

D = 180 - 64

D = 116°

Which statement is true? A. 2x – 1 = 13 and x = 6 B. 2x – 1 = 13 and x = 7 C. 2x + 1 = 13 and x = 7 D. 2x – 1 = 13 and x = 11
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

B. 2x – 1 = 13 and x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 4 equations and a solution for each. We have to tell which of the given solution satisfies the given equation.

Option A.

2x -1 = 13 and x = 6

Using this value in the equation, we get:

2(6) -1 = 13

12 - 1 = 13

11 = 13, which is not true. Hence this option is not valid

Option B.

2x - 1 = 13 and x = 7

Using the value in the equation, we get:

2(7) - 1 =13

14 - 1 =13

13 = 13, which is true. Hence this option is valid.

Option C.

2x + 1 =13 and x = 7

Using the value in the equation, we get:

2(7) + 1 = 13

15 = 13, which is not true. So this option is not valid

Option D.

2x - 1 = 13 and x = 11

Using this value in the equation, we get:

2(11) - 1 = 13

21 = 13, which is not true. Hence this option is not valid.
