for a right triangle with sides ,
, and
where
and
are the legs and
is the hypotenuse.
Based on the information given in the problem, we can say and
. When we use this information in our formula, we can find
:
Our answer is B, 25.
Answer:
<h2><em><u>x</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>=</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>39</u></em><em><u>°</u></em></h2>Step-by-step explanation:
As per condition,
3x - 17° + 2x + 2° + 90° + 90° = 360°
<em>[</em><em>Since</em><em> </em><em>angle</em><em> </em><em>sum</em><em> </em><em>property</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>quadrilateral</em><em>]</em>
=> 3x + 2x - 17 + 2 + 90 + 90 = 360
=> 5x = 360 + 17 - 2 - 90 - 90
=> 5x = 195
=> <em><u>x = 39 (Ans)</u></em>
