Two parallel lines cut by a transversal are shown. What is the measure of X"?

9514 1404 393

  x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The marked angles are "alternate interior" angles, so are congruent.

  (x° +20°) = (4x° -10°)

  30 = 3x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by °, add 10-x

  10 = x . . . . . . divide by 3

here you hope this .

step-by-step explanation:

hypotenuse = √(15² + 8²)

=  √(225 +64)

=  √(289) = 17

sin(x) = cos(y) = 8/17

they are identical so long as you are doing the sine of one angle and the cosine of the only other angle that isn't the right angle.

step-by-step explanation:

first, eliminate the parenthesis:
