Question
In the figure above, MQ and NR intersect at point P, NP = QP , and MP = PR . What is the measure, in degrees, of ∠QMR ? (Disregard the degree symbol when gridding your answer.)
Hint:
Triangle MPR is an isosceles triangle.
The correct answer is: 30 degrees
Step by step solution:
In the given figure, it is given that MP = PR
We know that if a triangle has two sides of equal length, it is called an isosceles triangle
Triangle MPR is an isosceles triangle
We know that in an isosceles triangle the two angles opposite to the equal sides are congruent to each other i.e. they are equal
and ware equal
Let = = x ---- (1)
Now, we can see that = 180° ( straight angle)
( in figure ÐRPQ = 60°)
Now, we know that sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180°
( from (1) )
We can see that = 30°
Hence, answer = 30°

A shipping service restricts the dimensions of the boxes it will ship for a certain type of service. The restriction states that for boxes shaped like rectangular prisms, the sum of the perimeter of the base of the box and the height of the box cannot exceed 130 inches. The perimeter of the base is determined using the width and length of the box. If a box has a height of 60 inches and its length is 2.5 times the width, which inequality shows the allowable width x, in inches, of the box?
