Hailey is putting up a fence in the shape of an isosceles triangle in her backyard. The fence has side lengths as shown, where x represents the
number of feet in each fence section. The perimeter of the fence can be
covered using 8 total fence sections represented by the expression 8x. If
fencing costs $6.50 a foot, what would be the total cost of the fence?
(2x + 4) ft
(3x + 7) ft
.
(2x + 4) ft

1. 34

2. 268

3. x=14.4

step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 16) + (x) = 180

step-by-step explanation:

given,

abcd is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle

angle a is labeled x plus 16, (x + 16)

angle b is labeled x degrees, (x)

angle c is labeled 6x minus 4, (6x – 4)

angle d is labeled 2x plus 16, (2x + 16)

what equation can be used to solve for angle b?

we know that the sum of the opposite angles of a simple quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is 180 degrees.

angle b is opposite angle d

therefore, angle b + angle d = 180

(x) + (2x + 16) = 180 

same as (2x + 16) + (x) = 180
