11) MZHGF = 16x + 4, m EGF = 110°,
and MZHGE = 3x + 11. Find x.
G
H
F
E

Explanation:

The smaller angles HGE and EGF combine to form the largest angle HGF.

This is an example of the angle addition postulate.

(angle HGE) + (angle EGF) = angle HGF

(3x+11) + (110) = 16x+4

3x+121 = 16x+4

121-4 = 16x-3x

117 = 13x

13x = 117

x = 117/13

x = 9 which is the final answer

We can stop here.

Extra info (optional section)

Use this x value to find each angle shown below

Then notice how,

(angle HGE)+(angle EGF) = 38+110 = 148

which is exactly the measure of angle HGF

This confirms that the equation

(angle HGE) + (angle EGF) = angle HGF

is true for that x value of x = 9. Therefore, the answer is confirmed.

  11) x = 9°

  13) x = -12°

Step-by-step explanation:

11) ∠HGE +∠EGF = ∠HGF

  (3x +11) +(110°) = (16x +4)

  117° = 13x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 3x+4, collect terms

  9° = x . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 13

13) ∠BCF +∠FCD = ∠BCD

  (x +78) +(x +41) = 95°

  2x = -24°

  x = -12°

a 4/6 = 9/12   not proportional

step-by-step explanation:

to find which are not proportional, we can use cross products

if it is true, they are proportional.   if it is not true, they are not proportional.

a 4/6 = 9/12

4* 12 = 6*9

48 = 54

not this is not proportional  

b 2/3 = 12/18  

2* 18 = 3 * 12

36 = 36

this is proportional

c 5/4 = 10/8  

5*8 = 4*10

40 = 40

this is proportional

d 7/5 = 35/25

7*25 = 5 * 35

175 = 175

is proportional

answer: the correct answer is -32
