Question

11 points Please help me find the value of x

Answer 1

Answer:

166°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's label our triangle.

We'll name the left one, next to ∠x, ∠A.

The bottom one, next to the 97°, ∠B.

And the top one, ∠C.

We know what angle ∠A is because its a supplementary angle to the 97° one.

180° - 97° = 83°

We know that the triangle is isosceles, so that gives us ∠C as well. 83°

∠A is the last remaining angle.

The sum of the angles to our ΔABC is 180°.

∠A = 180° - ∠B - ∠C

∠A = 180° - 83°- 83°

∠A = 14°

∠x and ∠A are supplementary angles!

∠x = 180° - ∠A

∠x = 180° - 14°

∠x = 166°

Answer 2

180-97= 83
83x2= 166
ans: x=166
