ANGLES J AND K ARE SUPPLYMENTARY ANGLES. WHAT IS M∠K if M∠J = 34°?
If angles J and K are supplementary angles, it means that they add up to 180 degrees.
If we know that M∠J = 34°, we can use this information to find M∠K.
Let's denote M∠K as x.
Since angles J and K are supplementary, we can write the equation:
M∠J + M∠K = 180
Substituting the given value M∠J = 34°:
34° + x = 180
To solve for x, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. Subtracting 34° from both sides:
34° + x - 34° = 180 - 34°
x = 146°
Therefore, M∠K = 146°.
