Question

I REALLY NEED HELP ANYONE PLEASE :(

Answer 1

exterior angle theorem? anyone

Answer 2

surrrrrre *^.^*

Answer 3

@cheergurl_99

Answer 4

thanks

Answer 5

Welcome! *^.^* What's your question?

Answer 6

well im not quite sure how to solve equations using the exterior angle theorem

Answer 7

can u give me an example??

Answer 8

yeah sure umm like angle T is 5x+10 and angle S is 58 degrees and then Angle U is 11x+2 and its in a triangle form of course but i cant really show you so im telling you the angles

Answer 9

im not quite sure how to set that up or solve it i mean earlier someone explained it to me but im not so clear about it

Answer 10

um can u attach it, it would really help

Answer 11

yeah i can try

Answer 12

gimme a sec

Answer 13

No Problem *^.^*

Answer 14

sorry to keep you waiting im trying to see if its on blackboard

Answer 15

Not a Problem at all hun *^.^*

Answer 16

its not up there ;/ but its basically an upside down triangle with the right side extended

Answer 17

ok, i had wanted an image so i can see which angles went where

Answer 18

ohh well umm 11x+2 is U and thats where the extended line is and then in the upper left theres angle T which is 5x+10 and then in the upper right corner theres angle S which is 58 degrees

Answer 19

ok hun, gimme a second to draw it out, nd figure it out *^.^*

Answer 20

alrighty no prob :)

Answer 21

ok, i think ive figured it out, but, can u tell me what type of triangle it iz?? isosceles, with two congruent anglez??

Answer 22

yes its an isosceles

Answer 23

Perfect!!! I think i got! Are S and T congruent??

Answer 24

yes

Answer 25

5x + 10 = 58
-10 -10

5x = 48
/5 /5

x = 9.333333(etc)
x = 9.4

Answer 26

isnt it suppose to be 5x+10+58+11x+2? thats what i was told before

Answer 27

wait no no i meant 5x+10+58=11x+2

Answer 28

ohhh ok yahh thats another way to solve for x!! setting all of the measures to equal 180 degrees!! Good Job!!

5x + 10 + 58 + 11x + 2 = 180
(combine like terms)

16x + 70 = 180
-70 -70

16x = 110
x = 6.875

Answer 29

OHHH OKAY THANK YOU!! :) THANKS SO MUCH!

Answer 30

do i do that for the rest of them?

Answer 31

your supose to set it to 180?

Answer 32

yes!! for triangles only tho!! set them to equal 180 degreez, and then combine like termz, nd solve from there :D

Your Welcome! NOO Problem *^.^* U can tag me whenever u have a question!!

Answer 33

thanks :)

Answer 34

ANY time *^.^*

Answer 35
