Angle a and angle b are supplementary angles. the ratio of the measure of angle a to the measure of angle b is 5: 4. find the measures of angle a and angle b.

100° and 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio means they are sort of multiples of a certain number (which I used X) and A is 5 times X and B is 4 times X. Since they are supplementary they sum 180°. After summing up both angles and equaling them to 180°, solve for X and substitute in the original equations

since your problem is x^4 = 81, what you have to undeo is the "to the fourth power" part.

the inverse (opposite operation) of "to the fourth power" is "to the fourth root".

  (x^4) ^ ¼   = 81 ^ ¼  

  81 = 3^4     so (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ 1   = 3

by hand: (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ (4 x ¼) = 3 ^ 1   = 3   (when you take a power to a power, multiply the exponents.)

or, do it by calculator. one way of finding the fourth root is to use ^ (1/4)
