Question

Solve for x in the diagram below (picture included)

Answer 1

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the straight line is equal to 180°, and the three angles that make it are (x+12),100°, and x. We can use the equation 180=(x+12)+100+x to find x.

180=(x+12)+100+x

We can remove the parentheses and combine x plus x to 2x.

180=100+2x+12

100+12=112

so

180=112+2x

-112 -112

68=2x

÷2 ÷2

34=x
