Geometry/Trig4. a) In ∆ABC, m∠A = x° and m∠B = 2x+2° and m∠C = 3x+4°, what is the value of x?

b) According to its angles, what type of triangle is this?

c) What side of ∆ABC is the shortest?

5. Solve for x and explain how you got your answer.

6. If ∠SAT = ∠RAS, solve for ∠AST.Hint: What do you know about all the angles in a triangle?

Geometry/Trig7. In the diagram of below AB≅ AC .

a) What type of triangle is this? Explain how you know.

b) The measure of ∡B is 40°. State the measure of ∡ A. Explain how you arrived at your answer.

8. Determine whether the given triangle is a right triangle. Explain how you arrived at your answer.

9. If (56, 90, y) are the sides of a right triangle, where y is the largest side, what is the value of y? Leave your answer in

simplest radical form, if necessary.

Hint: Mark your picture first!
