The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:

AD = AB + BD

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite:

d° = b° + c°

To find angle c, remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:

180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 60° - 36° = 84°

So, d° = 36° + 84° = 120°

A shortcut to get this answer is to remember that angles around a line add up to 180°:

a° + d° = 180°
d° = 180° - a°
d° = 180° - 60° = 120°

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

8a + 7a = 15a

The volume of a cylinder is πr²h:

v = πr²h
v = π(9² x 2)
v = 162π

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.

b - 1 = \( \frac{b}{-6} \)
-6 x (b - 1) = b
(-6 x b) + (-6 x -1) = b
-6b + 6 = b
-6b + 6 - b = 0
-6b - b = -6
-7b = -6
b = \( \frac{-6}{-7} \)
b = \(\frac{6}{7}\)
