Respuesta :

Thus the measure of ∠DBC is 31.

Given,

m∠ABD=4x+23 and m∠DBC=4x−5.

We need to find what is the measure of m∠DBC.

We have,

The given figure is a 90-degree angle.

So,

m∠ABC = m∠ABD + m∠DBC _______(A)

We have,

m∠ABD=4x+23

m∠DBC=4x−5

m∠ABC = 90

Substituting in (A)

We get,

m∠ABC = m∠ABD + m∠DBC

90 = 4x + 23 + 4x - 5

90 = 8x + 18

Subtracting 8 on both sides.

90 - 18 = 8x + 18 - 18

72 = 8x

Dividing 8 into both sides.

72/8 = 8x/8

9 = x

x = 9

Putting x = 9 in ∠DBC=4x−5.

∠DBC = 4x−5

          = 4x9 - 5

          = 36 - 5

          = 31

Thus the measure of ∠DBC is 31.
