Answer 3

Hello pls help me out!

Answer 4

Try using the rule:
O + Q = 180
R + P = 180

Explanation and proof:
http://www.geom.uiuc.edu/~dwiggins/conj47.html
O = (2x)
Q = (2x + 4)

O + Q = 180

This gives us the equation:
2x + (2x + 4) = 180

The measure of angle Q is the solution of that equation.

Answer 5

in a cyclic quadrilateral opposite angles are supplementary.
here <O+<Q=180

Answer 6

WOW thank you!

Answer 7

@surjithayer @Gabylovesyou so what exactly is Q tho?

Answer 8

have you tried to solve the equation ? :) look for x...

Answer 9

find x and then put the value of x in <Q

Answer 10

yes ^ :)

Answer 11

ya so X would be 4x right?

Answer 12

im not good at solving equations which is why i use my friend wolfram...

Answer 13

x = ?

Answer 14

How does that work?

Answer 15

Oh 44

Answer 16

it says it there lol ;p you just input your equation and it solves it for you and YES correct :)

Answer 17

Nice !

Answer 18

4x+4=180
4x=180-4=176
x=176/4=44
<Q=?

Answer 19

@surjithayer ya im doing it now

Answer 20

x=176/4=44 would be 4

Answer 21

So Q = 4?

Answer 22

<Q=2 x+4=2*44+4=88+4=92

Answer 23

lol sorry guys im dumb :p

Answer 24

Can i tag both u guys on a next Question?

Answer 25

sure! :)
