Question

6.Find the value of x. Don't forget your reasons. (x-38)

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 109

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure has one pair of parallel sides and is a trapezoid.

The lower base angle is supplementary to the upper base angle on the same side, thus

x + x - 38 = 180 , that is

2x - 38 = 180 ( add 38 to both sides )

2x = 218 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 109
