D) a=72

Please help thank you

Answer 1

Answer:

Your right the answer is B a=60 , b=120

A ratio of 1:2 just means one value is twice that of the other.

Answer 2

Answer:

B (a=60, b=120)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. m∠AOB = 180°

2. Since the ratio of a to b is 1:2, set the measure of a as x, and the measure of b as 2x.

3. a+b = 180, so x+2x = 180, 3x = 180, x = 60

4. x = a, so if x=60, then a = 60

5. if b=2x, then b = 2a, which is 2*60 = 120

Hope this helps
