i really need help with this find the values of x,y, and z. The diagram is not to scale https://www.connexus.com/content/media/451160-12172010-104020-AM-1393023501.png
Is this Geometry? I can't see the attachment.
yea it is hold on i'll try posting it again
can you see it know
Check your inbox, please.
alright c:
There's a theorem for this. Basically, 63 + 36 + y = 180. 99 + y = 180. 99 - 99 + y = 180 - 99. y = 81.
I'm pretty sure you can do the same thing for x.
omg thanks but can you still help with the rest..?
hmm.. um can you guide me if your still there
x + y = 180 x + 81 = 180 x + 81 - 81 = 180 - 81 x = 99.
When yo write this, though, make sure that the y that I'm talking about is actually z. So if you write what I wrote, replace all the y's with z's.
for which on and can you help me with the last one?
oh so the first one is supposed to be replaced with z
Check your messages.
First, we'll find x.
thank you so much :) ok lets find x
63 + 36 + x = 180
so i just add 63 with 36?
99 + x = 180 99 - 99 + x = 180 - 99 x = 81
Yeah, and then you subtract the answer from both sides. (answer being 99)
Now, we'll find z.
x + z = 180 81 + z = 180
oh i see, alright know lets find z i'm kind of getting it but i'm still stumbling. but how do i find z
So you use the formula x + z = 180. Plug in x, and then solve it.
I already wrote what to plug in above.
i know but didn't you already plug it in when you replaced x with the number
Yeah, so: 81 + z = 180
How do you isolate z?
idk i'm really sorry i feel really umb
81 - 81 + z = 180 - 81 z = 99
oh i see and then wait did we do y?
Is this multiple choice?
no :( i'm actually supposed to explain but i can do that once i figure this out
This is called triangle angle-sum theorem by the way. Make sure to mention it when you write your response.
alright thanks but how about y
is there even a y
I'm not 100% sure, but I think you take: 63 + 36 + y = 180 99 + y = 180 99 - 99 + y = 180 - 99 y = 81
alright thanks so much i'll give you a medal
No problem! I hope I helped. And thanks!
no problem
