The bottom of a pan is made of a 4-mm-thick aluminum layer. In order to increase the rate of heat transfer through the bottom of the pan, someone proposes a design for the bottom that consists of a 3-mm-thick copper layer sandwiched between two 2-mm-thick aluminum layers. Will the new design conduct heat better? Explain. Assume perfect contact between the layers.

85° and 95°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's begin noting that a triangle is isosceles if and only if two of its angles are congruent. We can thus find the angle <ABP, recalling that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is equal to 180°.

Finally, let point K be the intersection between segments BC and PQ, and let's note that the triangle PQB is a right isosceles triangle, since all the angles in a square are equal to 90°, and the two triangles APB and BQC are congruent.

Therefore, the angle BKQ is equal to 180-50-45=85°.

Of course angle BKP=180-85=95°.

Hope this helps :)
