Question

Help me solve for m<4 and m<5 and x

Answer 1

x = 18

Angle 4 = 31 degree

Angle 5 = 59 degree

Explanation:

According to the question, angle 3 is 90 degree and the sum of angle 4 and 5 is equal to the angle 3 as they are vertically opposite angles.

Angle 4 + angle 5 = 90 degree

Angle 4 = 2 x - 5

angle 5 = 4 x - 13

So, according to the question,

2 x - 5 + 4 x - 13 = 90

6 x - 18 = 90

6 x = 108

x = 18

So, angle 4 = 2 (18) - 5 = 31 degree

So, angle 5 = 4 (18) - 13 = 59 degree
