question 2 of 10 if stuv is a rectangle and m∠vsu = 52°, what is the
Step1: Recall rectangle properties
In rectangle STUV, diagonals are equal and bisect each other, so $\triangle VSU$ is isosceles with $VS = SU$.
Step2: Find other base - angle
Since $\triangle VSU$ is isosceles and $\angle VSU=52^{\circ}$, the other base - angle $\angle SVU=\angle SUV$. Let $\angle SVU = \angle SUV = y$. Using the angle - sum property of a triangle ($\angle VSU+\angle SVU+\angle SUV = 180^{\circ}$), we have $52^{\circ}+2y = 180^{\circ}$, so $2y=180^{\circ}- 52^{\circ}=128^{\circ}$, and $y = 64^{\circ}$.
Step3: Identify the required angle
The angle marked as $x$ is $\angle SVU$, so $x = 64^{\circ}$.
