On deadline please help I will give you a medal
Look at the figure. What is the value of x? 95 50 75 80
the angle that is supplementary to the 75 degrees is 2x+5 so try this \[2x+5+75=180\]
|dw:1375551860762:dw|
Angle DCG = Angle FCB = 75 degrees ( Vertically opposite angles are equal) Angle CBE + Angle FCB= 180 degrees ( Interior angles are supplementary) Angle CBE = 2x+5......... (1) Angle FCB =75 ...............(2) from 1 and 2 2x+5+75=180 2x+80=180 2x=180-80 2x=100 x=100/2 x=50
here is your working
@CaitlinN. you just need to take VOA and use the formula that sum of interior angles is 180 degrees much more simpler.
its 50.u see ur angle c will be 180-75=150{linear pair}.so ur angle ebc=angle c{alternate angles}.so 2x-5=105 2x=100 so x=50. its simple ,if u still face prlm u can ask me
@domu What you did is also right but thereis much more simpler way see mine.
@ipm1988 Agreed : ) nice solution!
look no matter how many times we post different ways to get the answer we still gonna get the same thing
And THAT is why @papsmurf is papsmurf, telling it like it is xD
thanks @domu
