If a line is drawn across the shape connecting two of the angles it makes two triangles. The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.
Since this shape makes two triangles the sum of the inside angles is 2 * 180 = 360 degrees
(2x - 17) + 90 + x + 59 = 360
combine like terms
3x + 132 = 360
3x = 360 - 132
3x = 228
x = 76

Step-by-step explanation:
why would you even need to know this
Answer: The correct set is choice D.
We are looking for the same ratio with the given set of measurements. So lets start by determine the ratio of nuts to raisins. It is 40.5 to 48.6 or reduced it is 5 to 6. If you divide the fraction, you get the decimal 0.83333.
Only one of the relationships given has the same ratio. It is choice D. 11 to 13.32 can be divided to get 0.83333.
