(1) x+y= 26
(2 ) x-y= 20 from here we can find : x= 20+y
We replace the ''x'' we found from (2) to the (1)
20+y+y=26
2y= 26-20
2y=6
y=3
x= 20+y = 23
Prove: 23+3 = 26 and 23-3 = 20

eimsori [14]

Answer:

sin A = 12/13

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opposite side/ hypotenuse

sin A = 12/13

OM , ON and OP are the angle bisectors of ∠AOB, ∠BOC, and ∠COD respectively. ∠AOD and ∠BOE are straight angles.

Orlov [11]

Find m∠BOC, if m∠MOP = 110°.

Answer:

m∠BOC= 40 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

A diagram has been drawn and attached below.

OM bisects AOB into angles x and x respectively
ON bisects ∠BOC into angles y and y respectively
OP bisects ∠COD into angles z and z respectively.

Since ∠AOD is a straight line

x+x+y+y+z+z=180 degrees

$2x+2y+2z=180^\circ$

We are given that:

m∠MOP = 110°.

From the diagram

∠MOP=x+2y+z

Therefore:

x+2y+z=110°.

Solving simultaneously by subtraction

$2x+2y+2z=180^\circ$

x+2y+z=110°.

We obtain:

x+z=70°

Since we are required to find ∠BOC

∠BOC=2y

Therefore from x+2y+z=110° (since x+z=70°)

70+2y=110

2y=110-70

2y=40

Therefore:

m∠BOC= 40 degrees

What is the answer to X+2y=6

Gre4nikov [31]

$\text{Turn the equation into slope intercept form}\\\\\text{Slope intercept form: y = mx + b}\\\\\text{Solve:}\\\\x+2y=6\\\\\text{Subtract x from both sides}\\\\2y=-x+6\\\\\text{Divide both sides by 2}\\\\\boxed{y=-\frac{1}{2}x+3}$
