Question

1. Find the value of x2. Using complete sentences, describe your ​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

Consider the triangle on the left and calculate the third angle

Subtract the sum of the 2 angles from 180

third angle = 180° - (75 + 50)° = 180° - 125° = 55°

Consider the triangle on the right

The third angle = 55° ( vertical angles )

Subtract the sum of the 2 angles from 180

x = 180 - (55 + 85) = 180 - 140 = 40
