ss below
same concept as the last one
angle = 1/2 * (big arc - small arc) the angle is 40 the big arc is 7x the small arc is 3x
ok so set it up one more time for me so it clicks in my head
angle is 40 angle = 1/2 * (big arc - small arc) so 40 = 1/2 * (big arc - small arc) big arc is 7x small arc is 3x 40 = 1/2 * (7x - 3x)
ok so i add 3 to both side?
no, you have to move the 1/2 first multiply 2 on both sides
multiplying by 2 will get rid of the 1/2 on the right side and so what is 40 * 2 = ?
80 sorry again
@AZ
so now we went from 40 = 1/2(7x - 3x) to get 80 = 7x - 3x can you simplify it and solve for x? What is 7x - 3x = ?
4x
Good so now we have 80 = 4x divide 4 on both sides, what is x?
20=1
4x divided by 4 is going to be x so 20 = x
oh ok
and you're all done
so its 20?
yes
ok thx <3
you're welcome :)
