Answer:
Angle E = 90°
Angle D= 55°
Angle F = 35°
Sum of all the angles of a triangle = 180° ( angle sum property).
Angle D + Angle E + Angle F = 180°
8x - 1 + 5x + 90° = 180°
8x + 5x + 89 = 180
13x = 180 - 89
13x = 91
x = 7.
Angle D = 8x - 1
= 8(7)-1
= 56 - 1
= 55
Angle E = 90° ( given)
Angle F = 5x
= 5 * 7
= 35
Answer:
m∠E: 90°
m∠D: 55°
m∠F: 35°
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the interior angles of a right triangle sum up to 180°, the sum of angles D, E, F will equal 180°. We can then form an equation from that information.
[tex]90+(8x-1)+5x=180\\13x-1=90\\13x=91\\x=7[/tex]
From this, we can plug in the variable.
[tex]mE=90\\mD=55\\mF=35[/tex]
