Hint: the sum of the angles is equal to 180 in a triangle. could you make an equation to use that?
3x+13, 7x+2, and 75 are the three angle values. They will sum up to 180.
Steps:
We set the equation to:
3x+13+7x+2+75=180
We can combine some terms
10x+90=180
Then, we isolate x
10x=90
And we divide by 10
x=9
Great! but we are not done yet. We want the measure of angle A, so we need to plug x back into the equation for angle a
3(9)+13
Multiply
27+13
Add
40
Sin is x
tan is y
Hope this helped☺☺
First, let's add all the x's.
x + x + x + x + x = 5x
5x - 1 + 1 + 1 + 1
Now, let's add together all the 1's that are being added (not the 1 that is being subtracted from 5x).
1 + 1 + 1 = 3
5x - 1 + 3
3 - 1 = 2
5x + 2
There's no way you can actually solve this unless you know the value of x; without x's value, this is as simplified as the expression is going to get.
Hope this helps!
