Answer:
9.) 5x - 18 = 4x + 7 10.) x = 25 11.) m∠MNQ = 107° 12.) m∠MNR = 73°
Explanation:
9. & 10.)
∠MNQ and ∠RNP are vertical angles meaning they are equivalent to each other. Knowing that, we can set their values equal to each other and solve for x.
5x - 18 = 4x + 7 (Given)
x - 18 = 7 (Subtract 4x on both sides)
x = 25 (Add 18 on both sides)
Therefore, we know the equation is 5x - 18 = 4x + 7 and we know that x = 25.
Now we can solve for the angles.
11.)
5(25) - 18
125 - 18 = 107
Therefore, m∠MNQ = 107°.
12.)
∠MNR and ∠MNQ are supplementary angles meaning their angles will add up to 180°
∠MNR + 107 = 180
∠MNR = 73
Therefore, m∠MNR = 73°.
