15. Since the angles with measures ( 4x ) and ( 6x ) are assumed to be
complementary, we know that ( 4x ) + ( 6x ) = 90. Simplifying this yields
N
(10x ) = 90 , so that x = 9. So, the two angles have measures 36 and 54 .
16. Since the angles with measures ( 3x ) and (15x ) are assumed to be
U
supplementary, we know that ( 3x ) + (15x ) = 180. Simplifying this yields
(18x ) = 180 , so that x = 10. So, the two angles have measures 30 and 150 .
R
17. Since the angles with measures ( 8x ) and ( 4x ) are assumed to be
SE
supplementary, we know that ( 8x ) + ( 4x ) = 180. Simplifying this yields
(12x ) = 180 , so that x = 15. So, the two angles have measures 60 and 120 .
18. Since the angles with measures ( 3x + 15 ) and (10x + 10 ) are assumed to be
complementary, we know that ( 3x + 15 ) + (10x + 10 ) = 90. Simplifying this yields
D
(13x + 25 ) = 90 , so that (13x ) = 65 and thus, x = 5. So, the two angles have
measures 30 and 60 .

19. Since α + β + γ = 180 , we know 20. Since α + β + γ = 180 , we know
that that

+ γ = 180 and so, γ = 30 .

21. Since α + β + γ = 180 , we know 22. Since α + β + γ = 180 , we know
that that
(
4 β ) + β + ( β ) = 180 and so, β = 30.
(
3β ) + β + ( β ) = 180 and so, β = 36.
= 6β = 5β
Thus, α = 4 β = 120 and γ = β = 30 . Thus, α = 3β = 108 and γ = β = 36 .

23. α = 180 − ( 53.3 + 23.6 ) = 103.1 24. β = 180 − (105.6 + 13.2 ) = 61.2
25. Since this is a right triangle, we know from the Pythagorean Theorem that
a 2 + b2 = c 2 . Using the given information, this becomes 4 2 + 32 = c 2 , which
simplifies to c 2 = 25, so we conclude that c = 5 .

26. Since this is a right triangle, we know from the Pythagorean Theorem that
a 2 + b2 = c 2 . Using the given information, this becomes 32 + 32 = c 2 , which

27. Since this is a right triangle, we know from the Pythagorean Theorem that
a 2 + b2 = c 2 . Using the given information, this becomes 6 2 + b 2 = 10 2 , which

28. Since this is a right triangle, we know from the Pythagorean Theorem that

a 2 + b2 = c 2 . Using the given information, this becomes a 2 + 7 2 = 12 2 , which
simplifies to a 2 = 95, so we conclude that a = 95 .
29. Since this is a right triangle, we know from the Pythagorean Theorem that
a 2 + b2 = c 2 . Using the given information, this becomes 82 + 52 = c 2 , which

30. Since this is a right triangle, we know from the Pythagorean Theorem that
a 2 + b2 = c 2 . Using the given information, this becomes 6 2 + 52 = c 2 , which

31. Since this is a right triangle, we know from the Pythagorean Theorem that
a 2 + b2 = c 2 . Using the given information, this becomes 7 2 + b 2 = 112 , which
