Question

If angle vuw = 4x+6 and wut = 6x+10 what is the measure of wut

Answer 1

C, 38°

Explanation:

ray UW is the angle bisector of ∠VUT

--> m∠VUW = m∠WUT = 1/2 m∠VUT

<=> 4x + 6 = 6x - 10

<=> 6 + 10 = 6x - 4x

<=> 2x = 16

<=> x = 8

So, the measure of m∠WUT is: 6x - 10 = 6 . 8 - 10 = 48 - 10 = 38°
