If P is the incenter of triangle JKL, find the measure of JKP.

m∠JKP = 31.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

Incenter of a triangle is the point where all the bisectors of interior angles intersect each other.

JN is the angle bisector of ∠KJL.

Therefore, m∠KJN = m∠LJN

(7x - 6) = (5x + 4)

7x - 5x = 6 + 4

2x = 10

x = 5

m∠KJN = (7x - 6)

            = 7(5) - 6

            = 35 - 6

            = 29°

In ΔKJN,

m∠JKN + m∠KNJ + m∠NJK = 180°

m∠JKN + 90° + 29° = 180°

m∠JKN = 180°- 119° = 61°

Since KO is the angle bisector of ∠JKN,

m∠JKP =

            =

            = 30.5°

{x = -1/2 ,   y = -1

step-by-step explanation:

solve the following system:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

in the first equation, look to solve for y:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

subtract 2 x from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

substitute y = -2 x - 2 into the second equation:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = -2

10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = (6 x + 6) + 10 x = 16 x + 6:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

in the second equation, look to solve for x:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

subtract 6 from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x = -8

divide both sides by 16:

{y = -2 x - 2

{x = -1/2

substitute x = -1/2 into the first equation:

{y = -1

{x = -1/2
