Ex. 1. S, D, and T are collinear, and S is between D and T. If DT = 40, DS = 2x -8, and ST = 3x – 12, find x, DS, and ST.

Ex. 2. S, R, and T are collinear, and S is between R and T. If RS = 3x + 4, ST = 2x – 5, and RT = 34, find x and ST. 1.2/1.3 Midpoints, Bisectors, and Vertical Angles

Notation -

Segments Angles

Midpoints

Ex. 1 If C is the midpoint of AB, AC = 3x + 1, CB = 2x + 4, find x, AC, CB, and AB.

Ex. 2 If D is the midpoint of EF, ED = 3x + 1, EF = 4x + 12, find x, ED, DF, and EF. Segment Bisectors

Ex. 3 DB bisects AC at E, AE = 2x + 6 and AC = 36, find x, AE, and EC.

Angle Bisectors

Ex. 4 If BX bisects ABC, mABX = 6x, and mXBC = 3x + 21, find x, mABX, and mABC.

Vertical Angles

Ex. 5 1 and 2 are vertical angles. If m1 = x + 3 and m2 = 5x – 25, find x and m1. 1.4 Angle Addition Postulate

Ex. 1) Point D is in the interior of ∠ABC. m∠ABC = 4x - 20, mABD = x - 4, mDBC = x + 6. Find x and mABC.

Ex 2) Point D is in the interior of ∠ABC. mABC = 108˚, mABD = x, and mDBC is 2 times

bigger than mABD. Find x and mDBC. 1.5 Complementary and Supplementary Angles

Complementary Angles -

Ex. 1 In the picture above, m1 = x + 8 and m2 = x + 2. Find x and m2.

Ex. 2 5 is the complement of 6. If m5 = 2x – 4 and m6 = x + 16, find x and m6.

Supplementary Angles - Linear Pair –

Ex. 3 In the picture above, m1 = 6x + 20 and m2 = 2x. Find x and m1.

Ex. 4 3 and 4 are a linear pair. m3 = 2x – 5 and m4 = 3x + 45. Find x and m4.

Ex 5 In the picture to the right, find x and mABE.
