Answer:

  • x = 33
  • base angles: 69°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°. In an isosceles triangle, the base angles are congruent.

For this, it is easiest to find the base angles first. If we let <em>b</em> represent the measure of one of them, the sum of angles is ...

  2b +42 = 180

  b +21 = 90 . . . . . . divide by 2

  b = 69 . . . . . . . subtract 21

The measure of the base angles is 69°.

__

Then we can find the value of x from its relation to the base angle measure:

  (2x +3)° = 69°

  2x = 66 . . . . . . . . . divide by °, subtract 3

  x = 33 . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The value of x is 33.

if the circumference of the shield is 100.48inches, nits radius is 16 inches and the area of the front of the shield is about 803.84 square inches.

proof

circumference = 2x r x Pi implies r =circumference / 2Pi=100.48/2x3.14=16

area = Pi x r²=3.14 x 16²=804.84

Julian fully simplifies this polynomial and then writes it in standard form. 4x2y2 – 2y4 – 8xy3 + 9x3y + 6y4 – 2xy3 – 3x4 + x2y2
ollegr [7]
Given that the last term is -3x^4, the polynomila is ordered in descending order of the exponent of x. Then, the first term is that where y is with the highest exponent, that is y^4

Simplify the terms with y^4: -2y^4 + 6y^4 = 4y^4

Then the first term is 4y^4
