Question 5
Step1: Recall complementary angles sum to \(90^\circ\)
\(\angle1 + \angle2 = 90^\circ\), so \((12x + 4) + (9x + 2) = 90\)
Step2: Simplify and solve for \(x\)
\(21x + 6 = 90\) → \(21x = 84\) → \(x = 4\)
Step3: Substitute \(x\) into \(\angle1\)'s formula
\(\angle1 = 12(4) + 4 = 52\)? Wait, no, wait: Wait, \(12x + 4\) when \(x = 4\) is \(12*4 +4=52\)? But wait, let's check again. Wait, \(12x +4 +9x +2 = 21x +6 =90\) → \(21x=84\) → \(x=4\). Then \(\angle1=12*4 +4=52\)? But the options have D as 52. Wait, but the original marked option was B (8.3)? Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, no—wait, complementary angles sum to 90, so \(12x +4 +9x +2 = 90\) → \(21x +6 =90\) → \(21x=84\) → \(x=4\). Then \(\angle1=12*4 +4=52\), so D. But the marked answer was B. Wait, maybe the problem was supplementary? Wait, the user wrote "complementary". If it's supplementary (sum to 180), then \(21x +6=180\) → \(21x=174\) → \(x≈8.285≈8.3\), which is option B. Oh! Maybe a typo: if \(\angle1\) and \(\angle2\) are supplementary (sum to 180), then:
Step1: Supplementary angles sum to \(180^\circ\)
\((12x + 4) + (9x + 2) = 180\)
Step2: Simplify: \(21x + 6 = 180\) → \(21x = 174\) → \(x = \frac{174}{21} ≈ 8.285 ≈ 8.3\)
Step3: Find \(\angle1\): \(12(8.3) + 4 ≈ 99.6 + 4 = 103.6\)? No, wait, no—wait, if \(x≈8.3\), then \(\angle1=12x +4≈12*8.3 +4=99.6 +4=103.6\), which is not an option. Wait, the options are A.4, B.8.3 (x?), C.38, D.52. Wait, maybe the problem is \(\angle1\) and \(\angle2\) are complementary, so sum to 90. Then \(12x +4 +9x +2=90\) → \(21x=84\) → \(x=4\). Then \(\angle1=12*4 +4=52\) (D), \(\angle2=9*4 +2=38\) (C). So maybe the original problem had a typo, but following the calculation, if complementary, answer is D. But the marked option is B, which is x≈8.3. So perhaps the problem was supplementary. Assuming supplementary (maybe a typo), then x≈8.3, but the question is to find \(\angle1\). Wait, no—maybe I misread. Let's re-express:
Wait, the problem says "Solve for the measure of \(\angle1\)". Given \(\angle1=12x +4\), \(\angle2=9x +2\), complementary (sum 90). So:
\(12x +4 +9x +2 = 90\)
\(21x +6 = 90\)
\(21x = 84\)
\(x = 4\)
Then \(\angle1 = 12*4 +4 = 52\). So answer D.
Step1: Identify angle relationship (l || m, so \(\angle3\) and \(\angle6\) are alternate interior angles? Wait, no—\(\angle3\) and \(\angle6\): since l || m, and the transversal, \(\angle3\) and \(\angle6\) are same-side interior angles? Wait, no, looking at the diagram: \(\angle3\) and \(\angle6\) are alternate interior angles? Wait, \(\angle3\) and \(\angle5\) are same-side, \(\angle3\) and \(\angle6\) are... Wait, in the diagram, l and m are parallel, transversal intersects them. \(\angle3\) and \(\angle6\): if \(\angle3\) is on line l, below, and \(\angle6\) is on line m, above, then they are alternate interior angles? Wait, no, alternate interior angles are equal. Wait, but \(\angle3 = 7x +12\), \(\angle6 =10x -3\). If they are alternate interior angles, then \(7x +12 =10x -3\). Let's solve:
Step1: Set angles equal (alternate interior angles)
\(7x + 12 = 10x - 3\)
Step2: Solve for \(x\)
\(12 + 3 = 10x -7x\) → \(15 = 3x\) → \(x = 5\)
Step3: Find \(\angle3\)
\(\angle3 = 7(5) +12 = 35 +12 = 47\)
Step1: Linear pair: \(x + 40 + 120 = 180\) (since they form a straight line)
\(x + 160 = 180\) → \(x = 20\)
Step2: Triangle angle sum: \(\angle J + 73^\circ + (x + 40)^\circ = 180^\circ\)
Substitute \(x = 20\): \(\angle J + 73 + 60 = 180\) → \(\angle J + 133 = 180\) → \(\angle J = 47^\circ\)
