Answer:
17.71
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolating s, the equation written in terms of s is:

-------------------------
- The equation for the length of the third side, as stated in the problem,("Maristella uses the equation b = 24 – 2s to find b, the length of the triangle's third side") is:

- To solve for the lengths of the congruent sides, we isolate s, thus:


Inverse of multiplication is division, thus:

Separating into two fractions:

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
z = 180 - (180 - 114.8) - 45.6 = 114.8-45.6 = 69.2°
Answer:
13. x = 7 ; Converse : Alternate interior angles are equal .
14. x=12; Converse used : Linear pair
15. x = 23; Converse: Corresponding angles are equal
Step-by-step explanation:
13.
Refer the attached figure
Given: q || r
(Alternate interior angles )
So, 15x+3=108
15x=108-3
15x=105

x=7
So, x = 7 ; Converse : Alternate interior angles are equal .
14.
Refer the attached figure
Given q||r
(Alternate interior angles
So,
Now
(Linear pair)
So,7x-8+11x-28=180
18x-36= 180
18x=216

x=12
So, x=12; Converse used : Linear pair
15.
Refer the attached figure
Given q||r

(corresponding angles)
90+2x=5x+21
90-21=5x-2x
69=3x
23=x
So, x = 23; Converse: Corresponding angles are equal
