Question: `q Query 9.1.36 Given rays MO and OM

• How do you express the intersection of the two rays?

• How do you express the union of the two rays.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

OM with a bar over the top is the intersection of the two rays.

The union of the two would continue infinitely in both directions.

confidence rating #$&*: 3

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

`aSTUDENT SOLUTION:

The ray MO, designated by the letters MO with a single arrow over the top, originates at the point M, passes through the point O and continues forever.

The ray OM, designated by the letters OM with a single arrow over the top, originates at the point O, passes through the point M and continues forever.

The two rays have in common the line segment OM, which would be designated by the letters OM with a 'bar' over the top. This would be the intersection of the two rays.

The union of the two rays would form the line OM, which continues forever in both directions and is designated by the letters OM with a 'double arrow' over the top (a double arrow looks something like <-->).

Question: `q Query 9.1.54 lines SR and TP intersect at Q, where Q lies between S and R, and also between T and P.

What are the names of the pairs of vertical angles for this figure?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

SQT and PQR

SQP and RQT

confidence rating #$&*: 3

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

The point Q lies between S and R on the first line, and between T and P on the second.

The angles formed by these two intersecting lines, running clockwise around the figure, are SQT, SQP, PQR and RQT.

A pair of vertical angles consists two alternate angles from this list. The only possibilities are

• SQT and PQR

• SQP and RQT

and these are the possible pairs of vertical angles.

Question: `q Query 9.1.60 Angles 5x - 129 deg and 2x - 21 deg are vertical angles.

• What is the value of x and how did you obtain it?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

5x - 129 deg = 2x - 21 deg

3x - 129 deg = -21 deg

3x = 108 deg

x = 36 deg

confidence rating #$&*: 3

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

Since the angles are vertical angles, they are equal to each other, therefore, I set them up to be equal to each other and then solved. To check myself, I then substituted my answer in for x on both sides of the equation to make sure they were equal.

Starting with

5x - 129 deg = 2x - 21 deg

subtract 2x from both sides to get

3x - 129 deg = -21 deg. Add 129 deg to both sides to get

3x = 108 deg. Divide both sides by 3 to get

x = 36 deg.

To check substitute 36 deg in for x in the equation and simplify, getting 51 deg = 51 deg.

Question: `q Query 9.1.72 The complement of an angle is 10 deg less that 1/5 of its supplement.

• What is the measure of the angle and how did you get it?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

90 deg - x = 1/5(180 deg - x) - 10 deg

450 deg - 5 x = 180 deg - x - 50 deg

450 deg - 5 x = 130 deg - x

-4x = -320

x = 80 deg

Complement of 80 deg is 10 deg, sup is 100. 1/5 * 100 deg = 20, so the complement of 10 is indeed 10 less.

confidence rating #$&*: 3

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

Let x be the degree measure of the angle. Then the supplement is 180 deg - x; 10 deg less than 1/5 the supplement is 1/5(180 deg - x) - 10 deg. The complement is 90 deg - x.

So the equation is

90 deg - x = 1/5(180 deg - x) - 10 deg. Multiplying both sides by 5 we get

450 deg - 5 x = 180 deg - x - 50 deg so that

450 deg - 5 x = 130 deg - x. Adding x - 450 deg to both sides we get

-4x = -320 deg so that

x = 80 deg.

Checking against the conditions of the problem:

The complement of 80 deg is 10 deg.

The supplement of 80 deg is 100 deg; 1/5 the supplement is 1/5 * 100 deg = 20 deg, so the complement 10 deg is 10 deg less than the supplement 20 deg. **
