Question

Could someone answer these 3 for me?

Answer 1

x=4.77

Angle 3=98.32 degrees

Angle 6= 81.68 degrees

Explanation:

(Assuming these are parallel lines), Angle 3 and angle 5 are equal because they are alternate Angles. Therefore we can write the following equation to solves for x:

16x+22=3x+84 (angle 3=angle5)

Which we can now solve:

16x +22 - 22 - 3x=3x-3x+84-22

13x=62

13x/13=62/13

x=4.77 (2dp)

We can then use this x to calculate angle 3:

16(4.77)+22

76.33+22=98.32 degrees

Finally,

Angle 6 and angle 3 are interior angles, so they add up to 180 degrees.

So to find angle 6,we can just subtract angle 3 from 180:

180-98.32=81.68 degrees.

Hope this helped!
