Geometry Help--Finding Each Measure!!!

Re: Geometry Help--Finding Each Measure

Angles AOB AND BOC are congruent...inside angle AOB it says (12x-4) degrees and inside angle BOC it says (13x-9)degrees...

Darn it Tootsie, if they're congruent, they're EQUAL; then:
13x - 9 = 12x - 4
x = 5

12(5) - 4 = 60 - 4 = 56
13(5) - 9 = 65 - 9 = 56

That's IT ; OVER AND OUT : those 2 angles both equal 56 degrees...
if that changes anything in your problem, then go see your $#%@#$@!@
teacher with it and tell him/her to smarten up

Oh my goodness!!!!! Thank You sooo much...this is such a DUH answer!! My teacher just goes over the same exact lessons in the book and then he assigns us homework that we dont know how to do...then we dont even check the homework to see if we FIGURED the stuff out RIGHT!!!

Your hypotenuse ain't straight, Gene...

His triangle is pretty good; it gets the idea across. It's just that not all of us are as good as Soroban when it comes to graphing. :wink:
