A piece of property lies between two parallel streets as shown. m<1=(2x+6)°,and m<2=(3x+9)°. What is the relationship between the angles? What are their measures?

Respuesta :

  • The angles are supplementary angles
  • The measure of angle m<1 and m<2 are 72 and 108 degrees respectively

Find the diagram attached. From the figure, the sum of the angles m<1 and m<2 are supplementary

Given the following angles

m<1 = 2x + 6

m<2 = 3x + 9

Since both angles are supplementary, hence;

2x + 6 + 3x + 9 = 180

5x + 15 = 180

5x = 180 - 15

5x = 165

x = 165/5

x = 33

Get the measure of m<1;

m<1 = 2x + 6

m<1 = 2(33) + 6

m<1 = 66 + 6

m<1 = 72degrees

Get the measure of m<2:

m<2 = 180 - m<1

m<2 = 180 - 72

m<2 = 108degrees

Hence the measure of angle m<1 and m<2 are 72 and 108 degrees respectively
