Answer:

4. m < P = 94 degrees,

5. m < 5 = 54 degrees.

Explanation:

4.

The figure is a pentagon so the internal angles add up to 540 degrees. So:

128 + 132 + 4x - 10 + 5x - 11 + 4x + 2 = 540

13x + 241 = 540

13x = 540 - 241 = 299

x = 23

and m < P

= 4x + 2

= 4(23) + 2

= 94 degrees.

5.

Angles 1 to 6 add up to 360 degrees

m < 6 = 90 and the sum of the other five angles = 5x ( as they are all congruent).

So we have the equation:

5x + 90 = 360

5x = 270

x = 54 degrees.

Answer:

4. 94 degrees

5. 60 degrees

Explanation:

4. This is a pentagon. By definition, all the angles should add up to 540 degrees. So, we can just add up all those expressions and solve for x:

(4x + 2) + 132 + (4x - 10) + (5x - 11) + 128 = 540

Combine like terms:

13x + 241 = 540

Solve for x:

13x = 299

x = 23

Now put this into the expression for angle P:

P = 4x + 2 = 4 * 23 + 2 = 92 + 2 = 94

Thus, P is 94 degrees.

5. Since angles 1, 2, and 3 are equal, then their supplementary angles are also equal. Say that each supplementary angle is x.

We also see that angle 4 = angle 3 + 10. We already set the supplementary of angle 3 as x, so that means that angle 3 = 180 - x (by definition of supplementary angles). This means that angle 4 = 180 - x + 10 = 190 - x. Angle 4's supplementary angle is the one inside the hexagon, and it will be: 180 - (190 - x) = x - 10.

Since angles 4 and 5 are equal, then their supplementary angles are equal, as well. So, the supplementary angle of angle 5 is x - 10.

Finally, we see that the last angle left to figure out in the hexagon is the one with the square. That is 90 degrees (by definition).

The sum of the angles in a hexagon, by definition, is 720. So, let's write all these expressions and set them equal to 720:

x + x + x + (x - 10) + (x - 10) + 90 = 720

Combine like terms:

5x + 70 = 720

Solve for x:

5x = 650

x = 130

The supplementary angle of angle 5 is x - 10 = 130 - 10 = 120. So, the measure of angle 5 is 180 - 120 = 60.

Hope this helps!
