Question

Which equation could be used to solve for the measure of angle Q?

Answer 1

z − (w + x) = 360
z + w + x = 360
z + x = 180
z + w = 180

Answer 2

Answer 3

is it b?

Answer 4

In an inscribed quadrilateral, opposite angles are supplementary.

Answer 5

ohh so would it be c then? cause they would add up to 180 right?

Answer 6

The sum of the measures of the angles of a quadrilateral is:

(n - 2)180 = (4 - 2)180 = 2(180) = 360

That means

x + y + z + w = 360

Choice B is incorrect because it only adds 3 of the angles, not all 4.

Answer 7

Yes, you are correct. The answer is C.

Answer 8

Notice that both choices C and D have angles adding up to 180.
In choice C, x and z are opposite angles, so their measures do add up to 180.
In choice D, angles z and w are not opposite angles, so we don't know if their measures add up to 180. Besides, there is no mention of angle x in choice D, so D cannot be correct.

alright thank you!!
