PLEASE HELP!!
If m∠AOD = (2x + 12)° and m∠DOC = (8x − 2)°, what is m∠AOD?

134°
46°
28°
17°

Applying the theorem of supplementary angles, the value of angle AOD is 150 degrees

What are Supplementary Angles

Supplementary angles are related to angles that make a straight angle together. It means, two angles are said to be supplementary angles when they add up to 180 degrees. Two angles are supplementary, if;

  • One of its angles is an acute angle and another angle is an obtuse angle.
  • Both of the angles are right angles.

In this question, we can write this mathematically as

m∠ AOD + m∠ DOC = 180°

2x + 12 + 8x - 2 = 180

collect like terms

10x - 10 = 180

10x = 180 + 10

10x = 190

x = 19

In triangle AOD, m ∠ AOD = 8x - 2 = 8(19) - 2 = 150

The value of angle AOD is 150 degrees

Answer: The answer is B, 46°

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 180 = 2x + 12 + 8x - 2

2) 180 = 10x + 10

3) 180 = 10 (x - 1)

4) 18 = x + 1

5) x = 17

6) 2(17) + 12

7) 34 + 12

8) 46°
