Given that Ray AT bisects ∠MAR, the numerical measure of angle MAR is 38 degrees.

What is the numerical measure of angle MAR?

A bisector divides a segment of angle into two equal halves.

Given the data in the question;

  • Ray AT bisects ∠MAR
  • m∠MAT = (4x − 5)°
  • m∠RAT = (2x + 7)°
  • m∠MAR = ?

Since Ray AT bisects ∠MAR, this simply means that ∠MAT is equal to m∠RAT.

m∠MAT = m∠RAT

(4x − 5) = (2x + 7)

Collect like terms and solve for x

(4x − 5) = (2x + 7)

4x - 2x = 7 + 5

2x = 12

x = 12/2

x = 6

Now, the numerical measure of angle MAR will be;

∠MAR = m∠MAT + m∠RAT

∠MAR = (4x − 5) + (2x + 7)

Substitute in x = 6

∠MAR = 4(6) − 5 + 2(6) + 7

∠MAR = 24 − 5 + 12 + 7

∠MAR = 19 + 19

∠MAR = 38°

Given that Ray AT bisects ∠MAR, the numerical measure of angle MAR is 38 degrees.
