Angle Q is supplementary to angle P (42°), so is 138°.
Veronika [31]3 years ago
5 0

Given, in the figure PR and PS are two tangents. They meet at P. Here angle P given. ∠P = 42°.

If we take a straight line PQ, it will create two triangles.

We can see here angle R and angle S both are right angles.

As here two triangles, so sum of all the angles of the triangles is 180^o + 180^o = 360^o

Now if we subtract the two right angles we will get,

360^o-90^o-90^o = 360^o-180^o = 180^o

That means ∠P+∠Q = 180°

If we substitute the value of angle P we will get,

42^o+Q = 180^o

We can get angle Q by subtracting 42 to both sides. We will get,

42^o+Q-42^o = 180^o-42^o

Q = 180^o-42^o

Q = 138^o

So we have got angle Q, the measurement of ∠Q = 138°.

Multiply and simplify
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer and explanation:

1. 2 × 3/10 = 6/10 = 3/5

2. 8 × 4/8 = 32/8 = 4

3. 9 × 3/9 = 27/9 = 3

4. 12 × 2/11 = 24/11 = 2 2/11

5. 3 × 5/7 = 15/7 = 2 1/7

6. 2 × 3/5 = 6/5 = 1 1/5

7. 11 × 4/8 = 44/8 = 5 4/8 = 5 1/2

8. 10 × 1/4 = 10/4 = 2 2/4 = 2 1/2

9. 5 × 1/4 = 5/4 = 1 1/4

10. 11 × 2/7 = 22/7 = 3 1/7

Hope this helps!

What is the area of a section of pavement that is 10 ft wide and 70 yd​ long? Give your answer in square feet. I think I have th
Elenna [48]

Answer:

  2100 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

1 yard is 3 ft, so 70 yards is (70 yd)×(3 ft/yd) = 210 feet.

The area of the pavement is the product of its length and width:

  area = (210 ft)(10 ft) = 2100 ft²

_____

If you keep the units with the numbers as I have done here, you find that the product of (10 ft) and (70 yd) does not have the units of ft². Rather, the units are ft·yd, which is <em>not what the problem is asking for</em>.

Two opposite sides of a rectangle are each of length x. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 12, then the area, as a function of
Reil [10]

Answer: x(6-x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Two opposite sides of a rectangle are each of length x.

Let the other adjacent side be y.

The perimeter of the rectangle is 12 units.

Perimeter of rectangle is given by :-

P=2(\text{Sum of adjacent sides})\\\\\Rightarrow\ 12=2(x+y)\\\\\Rightarrow\ x+y=\dfrac{12}{2}=6\\\\\Rightarriow\ y=6-x

The area of rectangle is given by :-

A=\text{product of two adjacent sides}\\\\\Rightarrow\ A=xy=x(6-x)

Hence, the area as a function x = x(6-x)
