Two easy questions 8th grade math 9. complete the missing steps in the paragraph proof of theorem 3-8. 11. solve for the value of x in the triangle shown below. show your work! (1 point for equation, 1 point for answer)

9.
<2 and <6 are right angles by the definition of perpendicular lines.
Since corresponding angles are congruent, m || n.

11.
In a triangle, the measures of the three angles add to 180 degrees.
If one angle is a right angle, then that angle measures 90 degrees. The other two angle measures plus 90 degrees add to 180 degrees, so the other two angle measures add to 90 degrees. In a right triangle there is a right angle and two other angles that are complementary.

Now look at your problem.
One angle is a right angle.
The other two angles are complementary, so their measures add to 90 deg.

8x + 2 + 9x + 3 = 90

17x + 5 = 90

17x = 85

x = 5

Ithink the answer would be knew
