Question

EH is a diameter is D. The measure of EF is (10x + 8) and the measure of GH is (11x). What's the value of X

Answer 1

x = 5°

EF = 58°

GH = 55°

Explanation:

From The diagram :

Recall ; Angle on a straight line = 180°

This means :

EF + FG + GH = 180

EF = (10x + 8)°

GH = (11x)°

FG = 67°

HENCE;

10x + 8 + 11x + 67 = 180

21x + 75° = 180°

21x = 180 - 75

21x = 105

x = 105 / 21

x = 5

EF = 10x + 8 = 50 + 8 = 58°

GH = 11x = 11 * 5 = 55°
