Explanation:

Hey, there!!

Let's simply work with it,

MA is perpendicular to AT.

To find: angle HAT.

Now,

angle HAT + (2x + 2)° + (3x + 5)° = 90° { As MA perpendicular to AT. }

Now,

Replace angle HAT by (3x - 5)°.

(3x-5)° + (2x+2)° + (3x+5)° = 90°

Open brackets,

3x - 5° + 2x + 2° + 3x + 5° = 90°

Add like terms.

8x + 2°= 90°

8x = 90°-2°


x = (88°)/(8)

x= 11°.

Now, finding the value of angle HAT.

(3x-5)° = 3×11°-5°

Therefore, angle HAT is 28°.

Hope it helps...

Answer:

Hey there!

3x-5+2x+2+3x+5

3x+2x+3x-5+2+5

8x+2=90

8x=88

x=11

Let me know if this helps :)
