Question 212281: I have to figure out the measure of the angles. The problem is "find the measure of angle T if the measure of angle T is 20 more than four times its supplement" I know the answer is 148 but I can't figure out how to get to that. I tried solving it by setting up the equation 4t+20=180 but I got 40. And I just really can't figure out how to so this. Please help!!

Question 212961: I have a picture with segment XY is perpendicular to segment YW. Ray YZ forms two angles within the 90 degrees of angle XYW. these ar identified as angle x (angle XYZ) and angle y (angle ZYW). The next picture i have has segment AB is perpendicular to segment BC. A segment BD is within this 90 degrees showing angles (2x)degrees (angle ABD) and (y-50) degrees (angle DBC). I need to find the measure of angle DBC.
I used two equations and two unknowns and came up with x =50 degrees and y = 40 degrees. that doesn't work when i use y=40 in the second picture with the angle DBC = (y-50)degrees. This would make that angle a negative number.

Question 213077: Another unit of angle measure, used primarily in engineering, is called a gradian. There are 100 gradians in a right angle. Is 1 gradian smaller or larger than 1 degree? Why?
I believe 1 gradian is smaller than 1 degree because we're comparing 100 (gradian) to 90 (degrees in right angle). It seems too simple so I'm asking for confirmation or correction.
Thank you.
