Answer:
Explanation:
1. Angle 1 and Angle 4 are vertical angles. If the measure of angle 1 equals 3x + 14 and the measure of angle 4 equals 5x − 52, what is the measure of Angle 1?
Vertical angles are equal to each other.
<1 = < 4
3x+14 = 5x-52
2x = 76
x = 38 Both angles are 38°.
2. ∠A and ∠B are complementary angles. If the measure of ∠A equals 3x + 40 and the measure of ∠B equals 2x + 35, what is the value of x?
Two angles are called complementary if their measures add to 90 degrees.
<A + <B = 90
3x+40 = 2x + 35
x = -5°
3.Suppose that m∠ABC = 3 + 8 and m∠XYZ = 2/3 + 62. If ∠ABC and ∠XYZ are supplementary angles, what is the measure of ∠XYZ?
Supplementary angles are two angles with a sum of 180°
3 + 8 + 2/3 + 62 = 180
I don't see a variable in either angle. Please check. We should be able to add two expressions and set them to 180 and solve for a variable. As written, we can't do that - there is no variable.
4. ∠X and ∠Y form a linear pair. If the measure of ∠X equals 5x + 45 and the measure of ∠Y equals 10x − 15, what is the measure of ∠X?
A linear pair adds to 180°.
5x + 45 + 10x - 15 = 180°
15x + 30 = 180
15x = 150
x = 10°
5. Angle 2 and Angle 3 are vertical angles. If the measure of angle 2 equals 13x + 27 and the measure of angle 3 equals 9x + 59, find the value of x.
The angles are equal:
13x+27 = 9x+59
4x = 32
x = 8
6. ∠A and ∠B are complementary angles. If the measure of ∠A equals 3x − 22 and the measure of ∠B equals 5x + 40, what is the measure of ∠B?
As explained in problem 2:
∠A + ∠B = 90
3x - 22 + 5x + 40 = 90
8x = 72
x = 9
Gotta go. Hopefully you can do the others in the same fashion.
