Math C:
What can you tell me about the angles? Are they congruent
132 (5x + 7)
I think you're missing something in between
remember vertical angles are equal to each other
No thats everything it says
|dw:1614274180894:dw| when we have angles that are opposite each other, it's called vertical angles and they're equal to each other so a = b and c = d
so for your question, 132 is equal to 5x + 7 can you solve for x now?
oh god im learning something like this in cp geo... it scares me uvu
What is the X for tho ?
Thats like the confusing part
weren't you the one who asked me that same question yesterday
yes, yes you were
x represents a variable, one of the answer choices goes in place for x and that gets you the degree 132
Yea Lmao
so in mathematics, we use letters like a, b, or x or y They're called variables. Basically when we don't know the actual number, we use a letter and then we try to solve it to find out what that number is supposed to be
Does that make more sense?
Yea a little more
AZ is big brain uvu
so now we have 132 = 5x + 7 what is 132 - 7 =
125
so now we have 132 = 5 * x what is x equal to just divide by 5
65?
oops I forgot to use 125
we did 132 - 7 and got 125 so it becomes 125 = 5x what is 125/5 =
25
and that's your answer
tysm could you help me with a few more?
Just remember, when two lines cross each other like this |dw:1614274642343:dw| then the angles opposite each other are equal
make a new post :)
