Question

Find the measure of angle RKL.



86°
70°
34°
68°

Answer 1

These external angles add up to 360 degrees ( thats true for all polygons)

Answer 2

so make an equation and solve for x

2x + 3x + 2 + 4x - 18 + 2x + 2 = 360

Answer 3

oh lord that's a lot

Answer 4

not hard
add like terms on left side
bring like terms together first

3x + 2x + 2x + 4x -18 + 2 + 2 = 360

Answer 5

add up all the x terms first

Answer 6

oh man im lost

Answer 7

if you had 3 bags of apples and
2 bags of apples and
2 bags of apples and
4 baggs of apples - How many bags of apples is that?

Answer 8

Imagine x means a bag of apples

Answer 9

1 bag + 1 bag = 2 bags
x + x = 2x

Answer 10

all have to do is add 2+2+3+4 and stick an x at the end

Answer 11

oh okay

Answer 12

easy really

for example 3x + 5x = 8x

Answer 13

okay.. so then what does that have to do with my problem?

Answer 14

well that shows you how to add up the 4 'x' terms

Answer 15

2x + 2x + 3x + 4x = what?

Answer 16

11x

Answer 17

right so we have

11x -18 + 2 = 2 = 360

now simplify the numbers
-18 + 2 + 2 = what?

Answer 18

umm -14?

Answer 19

right

11x - 14 = 360
next we need to isolate 11x
to do this we ADD 14 to both sides of the equation
11x - 14 + 14 = 360 + 14

-14 + 14 = 0 and 360 + 14 = 374 so we are left with

11x = 374

now you need to divide 374 by 11
this will give you the values of x

Answer 20

when youve found values of x multiply it by 2 to get the final answer
( because angle RKL = 2x)

Answer 21

grab ur calculator and work out 374 / 11

Answer 22

thughty foh

Answer 23

RKL is my favorite punk band.

Answer 24

punk!!? ugh!

Answer 25

34 is correct
so angle RKL = 2 * 34

il leave you to work that out

Answer 26

It's old punk from the 80/90's They sort of started the "skate rock" punk scene. Their bass player is amazing.
