In the figure, ∠TVU = 90°. ∠TVW is 37° more than ∠UVW.
- What line is perpendicular to TV?
- Find ∠TVW.
(a)
Line UV or VU is perpendicular to TV.
(b)
∠UVW = 1 u
∠TVW = 1 u + 37
1 u + 1 u + 37° = 90° (Right angle)
2 u = 90° - 37° = 53°
1 u = 53° ÷ 2 = 26.5°
∠TVW
= 26.5° + 37°
= 63.5°
Answer(s): (a) UV or VU; (b) 63.5°
