Question

The folding chair has different settings that change the angles formed by its parts. Suppose m2 is 34 and m3 is 76. Find m1The diagram is not to scale.
A. 130
B. 110
C. 100
D. 120

Answer 1

M3+M2+x=180 correct

Answer 2

yeah

Answer 3

so is that like the answer?

Answer 4

or just math

Answer 5

so how would i solve for m3

Answer 6

sorry i messed up ms from the diagram

Answer 7

look at the triangle formed around m3 and m2

Answer 8

ok but how would i solve it

Answer 9

im sorry im bad at math especiallt geometry

Answer 10

let the space we dont know be x

Answer 11

ok

Answer 12

therefore x+m3+m2=180
since we have two unknowns, (x and M3) we have to find one of them before we use the formula above

Answer 13

ok so how would we find them

Answer 14

Look at where m1 and x are in the picture what would they make by them self?

Answer 15

i honestly dnt know math

Answer 16

They would make a straight line if the angles were added together don't you think?

Answer 17

so x+m1=180

Answer 18

180 degrees

Answer 19

the answer is b

Answer 20

yes so is 180 the answer or do we have to simplify it

Answer 21

how did u get b from 180

Answer 22

so m2+m3=110
180-110=x
180-x=m1

Answer 23

oh ok thanks

Answer 24

:) thanks for your patience

Answer 25

your welcome. I could have just told you but i wanted you to understand the problem

Answer 26

true but its more helpful when you show the work then the answer lol
