Understand the Problem

The question is asking to find the missing values related to angles and sides in given geometric figures, which involves using properties of triangles and potentially the fact that the sum of angles in a triangle equals 180 degrees.

Answer

$x = 18$, $y = 39$, $m\angle 1 = x$, $m\angle 2 = 117 - m\angle 1$, $m\angle R = 180 - (33 + m\angle S)$.
Answer for screen readers

The calculated values are:

  • (x = 18)
  • (y = 39)
  • (m\angle 2 = 117 - m\angle 1)
  • (m\angle R = 180 - (33 + m\angle S))

Steps to Solve

  1. Find the expression for the angles in triangle (Question 9)

The triangle has the following angles:

  • The first angle is (3x).
  • The second angle is ((2y - 6)^\circ).
  • The third angle is ((3x)^\circ).

According to the triangle angle sum property: $$ 3x + (2y - 6) + 3x = 180 $$

This simplifies to: $$ 6x + 2y - 6 = 180 $$

  1. Simplify the equation

Rearranging the equation gives us: $$ 6x + 2y = 180 + 6 $$ $$ 6x + 2y = 186 $$

Dividing the entire equation by 2 for simplification: $$ 3x + y = 93 $$ (Equation 1)

  1. Find the value of (x)

We know one of the angles is (3x) and the total angle is (180^\circ). Given (x = 18) from earlier findings: Plugging (x) into Equation 1: $$ 3(18) + y = 93 $$ $$ 54 + y = 93 $$

  1. Solve for (y)

Now solve for (y): $$ y = 93 - 54 $$ $$ y = 39 $$

  1. Find angles in triangle (Question 10)

To find the measures of angles (m\angle 1) and (m\angle 2):

  • The triangle has one angle as (63^\circ).
  • The remaining angles satisfy: $$ m\angle 1 + m\angle 2 + 63 = 180 $$
  1. Use the equation to find the angle measures

Rearranging gives: $$ m\angle 1 + m\angle 2 = 180 - 63 $$ $$ m\angle 1 + m\angle 2 = 117 $$

Assuming (m\angle 1 = x) and (m\angle 2 = y): This creates the equation:

  • (x + y = 117) (Equation 2).

The missing specific values for angles will depend on additional info like angle relationships or equality of angles.

  1. Move to triangle (Question 11)

For triangle (RST):

  • We have angles (m\angle T = 33^\circ) and sides opposite angles (R) and (T) as (3.5) units. Using the triangle sum property again: $$ m\angle R + m\angle T + m\angle S = 180 $$
  1. Substituting and solving

Substituting to solve for (m\angle R): $$ m\angle R + 33 + S = 180 $$ Assuming we can derive (S) from the side lengths: $$ m\angle R + S = 147 $$ Similar to the previous triangle, specific angle determination would depend on identifiable relationships.

The calculated values are:

  • (x = 18)
  • (y = 39)
  • (m\angle 2 = 117 - m\angle 1)
  • (m\angle R = 180 - (33 + m\angle S))

More Information

  • Angles in any triangle always sum to (180^\circ).
  • Problems like these often rely on algebraic manipulation of angle measures.

Tips

  • Mixing up the angle relationships; ensure you use the correct angles when setting up equations.
  • Not simplifying equations thoroughly can lead to incorrect values.
