Question

Find the exterior angle of angle c.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This triangle is a polygon. By definition, all the exterior angles of ANY polygon add up to equal 360 degrees. So we add up all the exterior angles and solve for x. That's the first step.

7x - 2 + 9x - 31 + 4x + 33 = 360

Combining like terms gives us

20x + 0 = 360 or simply

20x = 360 so

x = 18

In order to find the value of the angle exterior to angle C, we sub 18 in for x:

7(18) - 2 = 124
