Math Problem Statement

Find the measure of each numbered angle in the provided image.

Solution

Let's work through the image you provided and solve the problems for the numbered angles.

Problem 25:

  • You are given that m1=65m\angle 1 = 65^\circ.
  • Angles 1\angle 1 and 2\angle 2 form a pair of vertical angles. Vertical angles are always congruent, meaning they have the same measure.

Thus, m2=m1=65m\angle 2 = m\angle 1 = 65^\circ.

Problem 26:

  • You are given that m2=67m\angle 2 = 67^\circ.
  • Angles 1\angle 1 and 2\angle 2 are supplementary angles because they are on a straight line. Supplementary angles sum up to 180180^\circ.

To find m1m\angle 1: m1=180m2=18067=113m\angle 1 = 180^\circ - m\angle 2 = 180^\circ - 67^\circ = 113^\circ

Thus, m1=113m\angle 1 = 113^\circ.

Problem 27:

  • You are given that m3=38m\angle 3 = 38^\circ.
  • 3\angle 3 and 4\angle 4 are complementary angles because 4\angle 4 is a right angle (denoted by the square symbol), meaning the two angles sum up to 9090^\circ.

To find m4m\angle 4: m4=90m3=9038=52m\angle 4 = 90^\circ - m\angle 3 = 90^\circ - 38^\circ = 52^\circ

Thus, m4=52m\angle 4 = 52^\circ.

Summary of Answers:

  • Problem 25: m2=65m\angle 2 = 65^\circ
  • Problem 26: m1=113m\angle 1 = 113^\circ
  • Problem 27: m4=52m\angle 4 = 52^\circ
