Answer:
1) 128°
2) 126°
3) 108°
The square in the corner means 90°. If you add the interior angles of any triangle together, you get 180. in this case, x is in exterior angle, so you subtract it from 180 to get the interior angle.
38 + 90 + (180-x) = 180
38 + 90 + 180 - x = 180
38 + 90 + 180 - 180 - x = 0
38 + 90 + 180 - 180 = x
128 = x
again, adding all the interior angles makes 180°. use this to make the equation.
3x + (5x-6) + 90 = 180
3x + 5x - 6 = 90
8x = 96
x = 12.
x isn't the answer the question wants, however. if you look at the drawing, the angle that's supplementary to 5x-6 is the exterior angle. so,
180 - (5x-6) = the answer
180 - 5x + 6 = the answer
substitute x for 12
180 - 60 + 6 = the answer
126 = x
again, adding all the interior angles together makes 180°.
(a + 10) + 44 + (180-2a) = 180
a + 10 + 44 + 180 - 2a = 180
-a + 234 = 180
234 - 180 = a
54 = a
however, the question is looking for the exterior angle, not a. in this case, the exterior angle is 2a, so just multiply 54 by 2.
x = 108
3. Determine whether or not AB is tangent to circle O. Show your work.
The line AB touching the circle at point B in the considered diagram is not tangent to the circle O.
If ABC is a triangle with AC as the hypotenuse and angle B with 90 degrees then we have:
where |AB| = length of line segment AB. (AB and BC are rest of the two sides of that triangle ABC, AC being the hypotenuse).
There is a theorem in mathematics that:
If there is a circle O with tangent line L intersecting the circle at point A, then the radius OA is perpendicular to the line L.
So, if AB is a tangent, then ∠ABO = 90° and therefore satisfies Pythagoras theorem.
Assuming AB is tangent, then ABO is right angled we should get:
This statement is false, and therefore, so as our assumption is false that ABis tangent to circle O. Thus, AB is not tangent to circle O.
(so it might be that even if AB looks like touching at one point the circle O, but AB might be intersecting the circle at two points, or not touching it at all)
Thus, the line AB touching the circle at point B in the considered diagram is not tangent to the circle O.

False. The converse may be either true or false, depending on what the original statement is, so assuming the converse would be pointless.
Answer:
false
