Question

MZWVA = 106°, m_AVU = 4x + 4,
and mZWVU = 21x + 8. Find x.

What is x?

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

x = 6

Explanation:

If we assume that ray VA is between VW and VU, then we have ...

∠WVA + ∠AVU = ∠WVU

106° +(4x +4)° = (21x +8)°

102 = 17x . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4x+8

6 = x . . . . . . . . . . divide by 17
