Question

In the diagram below, BC−→− bisects ∠FBE
If m∠DBC=(12x−3)°, m∠DBE=(5x+12)°, and m∠EBC=(3x+13)°, find m∠EBC

Answer 1

Answer:

m∠EBC = 34°

Step-by-step explanation:

m∠DBC = m∠DBE + m∠ EBC

m∠DBC - m∠DBE = m∠EBC

(12x - 3)° - (5x + 12)° = (3x + 13)°

12x - 5x - 3 - 12 = 3x + 13

4x = 28

x = 7

m∠EBC = (3(7) + 13)° = 34°
