Question

An illustration shows three rays A, D, and C emerging from a point labeled B, forming a right angle at B. The right angle is divided into two parts by ray B D. The angles face leftward. Angle A B C measures 90 degree, angle A B D measures 4 x degrees, and angle D B C measures left parenthesis 7 x minus 9 right parenthesis degrees.

What is the equation for determining the angle measures?

Answer 1

the answer is (7x-9)+4r=90

Answer 2

To determine the angle measures in the given situation, we know that angles \( \angle ABC \), \( \angle ABD \), and \( \angle DBC \) together form a right angle at point B, which measures \( 90^\circ \).

Given:
- \( \angle ABC = 90^\circ \)
- \( \angle ABD = 4x^\circ \)
- \( \angle DBC = (7x - 9)^\circ \)

Since \( A, D, \) and \( C \) form a right angle at B, we can set up the equation based on the sum of angles. The equation will be:

\[
\angle ABD + \angle DBC = \angle ABC
\]

Substituting the values we have:

\[
4x + (7x - 9) = 90
\]

This creates the equation for determining the angle measures. The simplified equation based on your prompt would be:

\[
4x + (7x - 9) = 90
\]

This can be rearranged as:

\[
4x + 7x - 9 = 90
\]

So, the concise representation for the equation based on your format is:

\[
(4x)° + (7x - 9)° = 90°
\]
